Both of these work just great. You may consider Fruity Loops too.

I use SONAR. It's very simple and one of industry standards. You will need a week (maybe less) to feel comfortable with the program. Later you can discover more things as you are working but to mix the whole track you need about a week to learn it. I recomend learning industry standard software because once you learn it you are up to date and nothing looks strange anymore. After is very easy to switch to any other program as all those recording software work on a very similar principle. If you learn how to use some cheap program I am sure after 2 months you will want more from it and that program will not have what you might be looking for. This way you spend some time learning the proper stuff and you can be happy.

I use Cubase and it gets the job done very well.But regarding free stuff , Reaper is the way to go in my oppinion..It will allow you to do everything you wanted..But make sure you obtain proper VSTs (virtual instruments) for drums and bass in order for your backing tracks to sound good.

I like pro tools and sonar, but lately I've been mostly using Pro Tools, I think is very straight forward.

IT depends how much money you have mate. If you have a big budget, then I suggest buying the best DAW software you can, because the better the software, the more easy it is to work with. But if you do want to save a bit, then Reaper is a great choice. It gives plenty of possibilities and it is free, so a very good choice.

Audacity is easier to use than reaper, but it also lacks on functionality compared to it.
Reaper is my current choice, going to cubase maybe in the future. -------------------- my "Thank you GMC!" video

I am also using Pro Tools, by far the best recording software in my opinion, but of course there are other good options too. If you want a free and easy to use software you should check out audacity.

audacity is free and it is quit cool...
my friend uses mixcraft for making loops and mixing things and i tried it for recording and it is really cool and not complicated. it has many vcery useful features, not only for recording but also for slowing down or speeding any track - or for changing the key.. mixcraft you can try it for a few days - it also comes with lots of drum eats and other virtual instruments... i also tried reaper, which is a littel it more complicated i think..... |
