Hi,
I have some musical experience with real instruments but little experience in software. I have been getting pulled in so many directions in trying to search for information on good software for my purposes that I am basically standing still. I am looking for the best options for free software that will allow me to make make music for commercial use. Are there any you can recommend that have good virtual instruments? Also, are there any good free options that provide mixable loops that are available for commercial use? Thanks for any advice. |

As someone who's used and taught a wide variety of music production software over the years, I have to say that Garageband is incredibly feature filled.
The other great thing is that if you exhaust its possibilities then you can upgrade to Logic and open all your Garageband projects up straight into Logic. Come on my Garageband course in central London! ;-) Or, come to my college and learn Ableton, Reason. We've even got a 2 day course in Ableton coming up in early December! We're here: www.citylit.ac.uk And my apologies if I'm not supposed to give such links! |
