I am at least ten years out of the loop and am looking for advice on some purchases. I am a Classical pianist and I do alot of accompaniment recordings for students. I currently own a Yamaha Motif Keyboard and a good, new computer that runs Vista. I thought about buying a Zoom recorder and just recording off that but it seems that would be the long way around.

Specifically, I am looking for:
1. A great! piano sample ... what´s the best out there now...opinions? One that will run off my computer with the Motif controlling it.
2. The easiest way to record and edit and convert to Mp3 format...something that may add a touch of reverb...I used to run Cakewalk years ago...something user friendly since we are dealing with the tech-stupid here...

Thanks!
