Hi Andrew,
It's perfectly possible , and not difficult at all , so I wrote a little
tutorial to get you (and others) started.
You can find it

If you have a MIDI keyboard , that's great but if you don't , don't bother
to start already , as you can draw your notes in the pianoroll editor.
Ofcourse any comments are welcome , so I can improve the tutorial.
Cheers,
Peter
