Does anyone use a tablet as a midi? With their CPU when designing on ps6---- I herd some ppl use iPads connected to their macs so they can use stylus
 
For music? :frown:

Or just a regular tablet like a Wacom?

This makes sense.

U use a Wacom tablet with stylus. With ps on your tablet or CPU ? And do u draw on tablet and see it in main screen of CPU or do u transfer file when ur done drawing

Yes, you connect the Wacom Tablet to your computer with a USB connection. You use a stylus to draw on the tablet witch immediately appears on the monitor. You have to have Photoshop running or a similar program running in order for the Wacom Tablet to work.

Any version of Photoshop will do.
A Wacom Graphics Tablet is not like an iPad, it does not come in versions.

edit: NO. You can only have Photoshop/Illustrator on your computer.

A Wacom Tablet is also known as digitizing tablets, they are computer peripheral devices that allow a "hand-drawn" (stylus) tablet-to-screen input to your computer. Wacom

An iPad or Windows tablet is a tablet computer!

Using your iPad as a graphics tablet.

You can use your iPad maybe but I don't think a graphics tablet can be used for MIDI sequencer software. I may be wrong.

From now on use these terms........

(don't say/type) CPU = (say/type) Desktop Computer or Laptop Computer

(don't say/type) iPad or tablet = (say/type) Tablet Computer

(don't say/type) Tablet = (say/type) Graphics Tablet
