my 2 cents ...
for recording..."MultitrackStudio Pro Plus Edition" v2.1.2.0
http://www.multitrackstudio.com/
for editing..."GoldWave" v5.04
http://www.goldwave.com/
for drums sometimes..."AlgoRhythm" v1.304
http://www.spacetimefoam.com/
Good value-packed software that you can try before you buy. Worked well on my 3-year old P3 Win98 machine and now works even better on my new P4 WinXP machine.

I tried most of them. For me, the ultimate setup is:
Acid 4.0 for loops
FruityLoops for beats
and the best recording/editing software is still -
Cool Edit Pro 2.0 with Waves Platinum Plugins.
If you don't care about midi, there is no better program.

One More Software
I don't see a mention of it but I use DDClipPro 3.51 shareware (ok, I'm broke). I can't mix to a wav but I can save each file as a wave and I can save the complete set. It comes with plugins or you can add your own. I've used it on a P133 64Mb machine and got up to 14 tracks-with effects on about 6 or 7-before having problems. I use 98prolite ver.3 that a friend gave to scale down thw windoze 98se OS. I have dual system (soon to be triple) with one partition for windows that I do internet,etc. on and a second scaled down for audio only (and a third partition for swap file). The rest of the drive is for audio/software. I use a dos program to switch back and forth though there is a free boot loader that works well. still need to find a good mastering software. now I use a PIII 500mz with 320mb ram system that I'be put together from computer stuff thrown away. very happy!!!

I know this is an old thread so to speak but
I use Cubase VST/32 5.x and im BEYOND happy with it
i dont need to use any other program with it to get results i do all my sequencing and recording inside the program and the fact that i get all this for under 400 bucks is a blessing
I love how pro tools operates but i am not going to be pimped by some company that really wants me to help out its homeboys by buying their hardware.
I hate the concept of buying cards to use pro tools after spending two years to find a great sound card only to find out i need to drop an additional 500 bucks just to satisfy some dickhead engineers preference because he only uses p tools.
Thank god thats no longer true and there is such a thing as a sonar based and cubase based facility.
The results are professional and so far the only thing pro tools has is media coverage and rappers mentioning it in songs.
i got digidesigns latest newsletter and they actually made it a point to big up the sample reverse function in the program as if cool edit or any other wave editor cant flip a sample backwards.
Save yourself the money.
If you pc is configured right and you have a pro level or even mid level or home studio level card you can get great results with Cubase i havent tried sx but im very pleased with vst and plan to produce my entire labels roster with it
im gonna spend my pro tools money on getting my computer as close to P4 3 ghz as possible which is like the scene from Reloaded when Neo meets the architecht.

i use n-track, and i'm pretty much happy with it... so far i haven't wanted to do anything that i couldn't do in it, and any major problems i've had with it were my own fault.. i've been using it for years.. before that i used cakewalk. i hate cakewalk. it's the most pointlessly obtuse recording program i've ever seen. i think i like cubase better than n-track or anything else i've messed with, but i can't afford it, and don't really need it.

I'm on the mailing list for each new version
of n-track and tried it but the interface is just too ugly/big for me. In DDClip, I can see all my wavs in half-view and line up 14 tracks on my 800x600 view. I've heard alot of good things about n-track and the price is reasonable but the interface isn't.

The most interesting thing about this thread is the poll:
Did you notice that none if the programs sticks out? Seems like they are all great tools and that there's tough competition. I would have thought that Cubase and Logic are by faaaar the most commonly used recording programs, but I guess I was wrong. I was surprised that many of you use low-end, low-cost programs, while surprisingly many others have rather expensive tools (ProTools).
However, if only "homies" or only "pros" were allowed to vote, the poll would look completely different, I guess.

So the truth is in on Ntracks. I heard in another forum that nobody probably uses it. Well I still use it and I also have CW 9 , CEP, and Acid 4, etc... I still use mainly Ntrack 3 and Wavelab 4 for most of my work. They seem to be the best combination and easiest to work with not to mention the most stable. I can still use all my VST and DX effects in Ntrack from my other programs also.

yeah -- quite a few people use n-track.. in fact, there is a very lively forum over at www.ntrack.com/ntrackforum .. all purpose discussion plus tech support from other uses for ntrack details.. very friendly and open place (unless you come in cussing like a sailor and proclaiming your love for satan..)...
i like ntrack because it's straightforward, and has both vst and dx support.. a little of everything.. it works for me more stably than any other software i've used, and it fits my economic ethics (support the smallish independent guy)..
DDclip looked ok, but had a lack of features that i couldn't work with.
i would probably ditch n-track for logic if they hadn't dropped pc platform.
i use cooledit pro for my wave editing.
i've heard alot about vegas, but never actually seen it or used it.
