Best Recording Software?
What is the best recording software for a pc and why? What are the pros and cons? I am looking into turning my PC into a home recording device...
Thanks for the wisdom in advance...

Re: Best Recording Software?
Most people use Cool Edit Pro becasue it's free.
I would guess Cakewalk, Protools or Sonor are some of the best...but they cost $$$.

Re: Best Recording Software?
There are some great products out there.....basically, just figure out what will work best for you....
Some links...
www.cakewalk.com
www.cubase.com
www.protools.com
Download some of their trial versions...then decide which one you like...there are also other products out there....but for PC...In my opinion all these three are great choices... |

Re: Best Recording Software?
Try the n-track software for free and see if you like it. I like the ability to add effects to each track after you have recorded them.

Re: Best Recording Software?
The "industry" says that Protools is the best. But thats not necisarily true. As human said, sound forge is good. Good for editing though. I use it just for editing at least. Sonic Foundry Vegas is what i use to record. Its just fine.

Re: Best Recording Software?
Cool Edit is free? Only for a few weeks. On a trial basis. I can't find any such software on Kazaa that is not the trial verision... Anyone know where I can get a version that is not only a trial?
