Computer programmers create synthesizers, other known as VSTs, which allow you to have a sound module within your computer! However, now with computers, sounds and programs are amazingly affordable in compared to what it used to be. Music back in the day was not affordable because of having to purchase this kind of gear. (This is where VSTs save so much time and effort while making music, you can edit your loop instantly instead of recording it). If you feel you’ve made a mistake, it looks like you’ll have to edit your MIDI notes, then record once again. Sure, you can edit your notes at first, but when you go to record, that’s your audio loop you’re working with.
You would then switch between sounds on the sound module, and then record the audio from the sound module into your computer. You would connect a MIDI cable from your keyboard to one of these analog sound modules. If you had a MIDI controller back in the day, the connections would of looked like this picture.
These would be on those expensive-looking studio racks where it would be loaded with tons of other analog gear like hardware compressors, hardware effects like delays and reverbs, EQ’s, pre-amps and so on! Alright, so back in the day sounds were stored on analog/hardware gear, called sound modules.
