hi all,
ok so basically i am looking to setup a home studio for demo recordings etc for my band and a few others..... mainly just blues, rock, metal, etc
i am pretty sweet for now on the hardware side of things, but it is the software that really has me unable to make up my mind
i have never really used anything apart from audition and am looking for some feedback on what software you would recommend for recording, mixing, basic sound effects, etc.... i also have a midi keyboard which i would like to use
ive been looking around and have the following list. i guess its a matter of personal preference but is anyone able to recommend what they use and why? remembering i will only be doing blues, rock, metal, etc
- ableton live
- adobe audition
- audacity
- cubase
- magix music studio
- reaper
- sonar
- sony acid pro
- sound forge
ive been reading alot and just cant seem to workout what the differences between them all are.... do they all do the same things or are some better suited for certain tasks?
ive also heard you can use a thing called rewire to use 2 simultaneously.... but why would you do that, are there any benefits?
any help or advice would be much appreciated as i am really new to all of this and need all the help i can get!!
cheers
