Probably the most important thing about Audacity is that it’s free.Īs with everything though, you get what you pay for, and Audacity has a couple of shortcomings as we’ll see later on, when we take a more detailed look at audio and editing features. It’s available for Windows and Mac, as well as having an existing stable editing version available on Linux. It was started by two students at Carnegie Mellon University a year earlier. It comes in 32-bit and 64-bit versions, deals with all kinds of audio file formats (audio files and audio formats), and accepts all the usual VSTs files.Īudacity is a bit of a granddaddy in software terms, having made its first appearance in 2000. Reaper handles audio and midi recording and importing, and can do some video work too. That last sentence will be lost on the kids. It’s made by a company called Cockos, and it launched in 2005. Reaper is a download for Windows or Mac, and is currently experimenting with a version for Linux. He’s a career music producer, so I was happy to follow his recommendation. The funny thing about my introduction to the Reaper app, is that it came from somebody while they were being endorsed by one of the bigger name brands in digital audio production and editing tools. Here, we’ll take a look at a couple of options at the cheaper end of the spectrum. Starting out at least, it’s advisable to go with something towards the budget end: what’s the point in spending thousands on gear if it turns out you don’t have that much time for music production, or, if you suck at it. There are a bajillion options available when it comes to home recording, that can accommodate all kinds of budgets, from free, low cost stuff, to the super-expensive.
You don’t have to pay an engineer or producer for editing and production.You keep control of the audio recording process.Since the dawn of digital audio production, plenty of musicians have taken it upon themselves to h availado what they could witble technology to record their own music.
