there is a free protools download available (demo version I think), but I believe it limits the number of tracks you can record (8 I believe)

It doesn't matter what you pay ($0 to a $1,000,000). The only thing that matters is that you're downloading from an "authorized" site that is paying royalties to the artists/recording companies.

Acoustica has a music format converter that is approx $20.00 that's the least expensive that i have found so far... and it is easy to use also.

You can record them using Audacity:\n\nhttp://audacity.sourceforge.net/\n\nAnd then convert the files into MP3 and upload them in your web site, please let us know when they are UP.

You can start from a basic Sony minidisc recorder and stereo mic if you're just looking to get simple, one-take demos for a ballpark of $100. The next step up would be a portable hard-disc recorder , though this will cost you about $600 for the most basic setup without the CD burner. The next step up is a new computer and entry-level software.

Get a recording program like Pro tools or Acid Pro and record and produce it yourself. Of course this sounds easy but it takes effort. 1st you'll have to learn to use the recording program and how to manipulate sound files. 2nd you'll need samples which, fortunately, are available free all over the web if you dig a bit. Third you'll need to learn how record on a computer using the sound card. And 4th you'll have to learn how to mix the track into a viable song. Millions of artists are now doing this at home or in small self made studios. Once you get the hang of it it's completely possible to make a big time studio quality track for peanuts compared to the cost of using " traditional " methods.

I had to take a few of mine to a local recording studio...most of them have the technology to do it! Good luck!

Apple's Garage Band software is great for this.  It comes with hundreds of intrumental or percussion loops, plus it allows you to import other tracks and record live over them.

i would suggest: recording audio tracks and stuff is sony vegas; for music creation fruityloops...sorry if im not into cakewalk products, im not just satisfied with the sound quality it produces (for the final product)...it has a distinct sound unlike sony vegas, what you recorded is what you'll hear.... if its trash in then for sure its trash out...hehehe...a lil exageration there...and also you need to get a dose of plugins to enhance your sound... try wavearts, waves, timeworks, izotope, sony express packs...but try not to overdo it...i just had all sorts of these plugins just for reference--so you wont be limitted with your resources...

It depends, if your HD is bad then your screwed, however if your software is bad i suggest burning your music on a disk, and then restoring your computer to factory settings, \n\nIf you are a computer person it should only cost about $35 to fix a HD problem, but If your not it will cost $80 and up.

Why not just toss it or store it and go get some CD-R's. A 50 pack on sale cost $9, that's .18 a piece vs. spending time erasing and recording on slower CDRW's. Even at min. wage your time needed to erase and burn at slower CDRW speeds sould be a couple of bucks so give your time value and you can see it's not worth it to use them.

I have a VERY small business.  I do freelance work as a voice over artist (this entails recording my voice for use in commercials and phone messaging, store announcements etc).  All it took me was purchasing my computer, my microphone, my mixer board and some editing software.  That's it...maybe $1500 tops...but it's not regular business yet (but that's okay with me, I'm a stay at home mom besides)

First off, make sure you copyright it. As far as production goes, you can hire a studio with a really good producer and record it yourself. No one in the music industry is going to accept unsolicited material. You need to promote it and get it heard. This is a long difficult process. In music it's the truth that you have to spend money to make money. Also try songramp.com. There is no charge for membership and there are hundreds of independent producers and artists. You can post your lyrics in the "lyrics seeking music" category. If you're serious don't give up.

I am not sure what is happening, but here is a pretty simple suggestion.\n\nI would bring in a home style setup.  Remember that most studio equipment is high-end compared to the stuff most people have at home.\n\nCreate a track the way you normally do, and then play it on the home stereo you brought into the studio.  Now you have a comparison you can make in less than 30 minutes.\n\nWhen you make the first test recording, do it just like you have before.  For the second recoding, check the overdrive limit of the CD, and record this 2nd CD as high as possible without distortion.\n\nI hope this suggestion will help you.  My profile contains my email address, so if you experiment and are still having trouble you can write me.\n\nBest of luck,\nJeffrey
