bigtim Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I know some of you record on a computer. Is there an easy to use studio software that does not take hours and hours of studying a users manual in order to figure out moving tracks and editing other stuff?? Just checking and thanks in advanced. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use it with IRig. Easy and portable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobF_ Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 +1 for Reaper. I suffered with Cakewalk's Pro Audio and Sonar product for way too many years. Reaper is where it's at and you can't beat the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Garage band is as user friendly as they come, and also comes free with Mac computers. It's really easy to use, and the best part is, if you want to do a little more work you can open GB projects with logic pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Agree Apple is intuitive and easy to learn. I have logic pro. It's $200 for a tricked out professional DAW. Groove3 has video tutorials by Eli Katzenberg that are so easy and just fun. I'm recording full songs now. A lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69tele Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Ntrack, easy to use and cheap as well. http://www.gear-review.co.uk/reviews/ntrackv7/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneS Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Audacity is free and basic. I haven't broken anything yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Roxio Music-Lab 9 is a very complete (incl. full editing, 120 track mixing, drum simulators, amp and effect simulators, etc.) recording package for 77 hrs of finished music mixed tracks..... BUT I discovered after purchasing (on clearance for $70) that it pretty much requires a dedicated computer/memory driver, as it immediately decimated our home PC.

Riffster Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Audacity is free and just about the simplest way to record in a computer, there is essentially no learning curve. Keep and eye on free recording classes at Guitar Center, I have been to a couple of GarageBand lessons and they help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I'm with Anne and Riffster on Audacity... Now I've gotta check how to get it going with Win 8.1, but I don't see a major problem. The thing with software is that sometimes stuff that's absolutely intuitive for one person is an incomprehensible maze for another. There are batches of psychological and background "educational" issues involved, but the bottom line is that I don't think much of any software is intuitive to some folks. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
