I've just stumbled across this site, and i hope you can all steer me in the proper direction in my 'musical pursuits'. (if this is in the wrong section, i do apologize)

I've recently just got my old band together and I am interested in finding a program that can properly mix the audio that I've recorded so that i can produce for myself rather than pay $50-100 for some of these crappy local studio's here in Daytona Beach, FL that overprice for a crap job.

I'm not looking to do anything fancy. I'm not interested in thousands of effects or making my band sound awesome like some other studio queens...

I just need a bit of help with finding a proper program that fits my needs, i suppose.

At the moment i have a fairly good computer, so running the programs is not a problem. I'm just a bit strapped for cash right now, so if a program is cheep or free that would be great!


Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
 
How much of a budget are you on man?

We're talking <$1000 until I'm working at circuit city full time and not seasonal.

I WOULD like to use protools, but the learning curve is all anyone seems to talk about.:rolleyes:

Ok, this is about as low budget as possible. For recording you will only have your PC sound card (built into the motherboard in most cases now). You might check out a program called N-Track for the PC ( http://www.ntrack.com ). The guy has been adding to the program for years and it's worth every penny of $64. You can download it and try it too. I use Sonar, but N-Track will do the job you need it to for cheap.
 
Sweet, thanks man :thumb: I'll check out the demo and mess around for a bit


How is FL Studio 8 as a mixing program? A Friend is willing to sell me his copy on disk for $50 (with his cd key). Potentially worth it? OR is FL Studio a waste of time?
