Im not sure if any of you have heard about Magix studio deluxe or the who Magix line up, but I'm Shure you've heard of Sonar 3...
anyway I was wondering if anyone could tell me how is it, that when I record on Sonar 3 the recording sounds better than when I record on Magix? I always that softwares really didn't matter. .note these recordings are dry, no plugins or effects added.

i have a software question. i do all of my recording on a Tascam 2488, and just got a laptop that i want to use for mixing those tracks. I don't use any MIDI or samples or anything, and want to mix just recorded audio (acoustic guitar, bass, drums, piano...). i've got decent powered monitors, and have a $200 budget for software.

Hello all,

I'm a beginner at recording in general. I'm doing it as a hobbyist. I've been learning a lot about sound in general working PA's at church, but this particular problem I think it's how I'm using the software. I use Sonar 4 with an M-Audio Firewire Solo w/ a Audio Buddy Mic Pre. Works very well for me as I am learning.

I was wondering what the best programs were for Computer djing, Recording and Beat Making. How are programs like Final Scratch v 2.0 and Emu and what are there capabilities? I'm willing to save my money to any amount and Me and my bud are looking to owning a label one day. Any info would be greattttt.

I have used different recording software, but not to the point where I know them all really good. I've used Nuendo, cubase, and Sonar 3 prod edition, and Magix studio 6,7, and the 2004 version...

Well its not that slow, but I want somthing that is faily light and powerful. Its for my laptop. Cerleron 1.06ghz 256ram. I will be using a PreSonus firewire interface for recording.

Which software would you recommend to be the lightest on the system when it comes to tracking? But still with some decent features.

Thank you,
Josh

For anyone interested, Musicians Friend has Wavelab Essential for $99. It goes for $199 everywhere else I've seen. I would get it fast because it apprears to be a scew up on their part.

Hi,

I apologize in advance for my lack of in depth knowledge of recording software. To preface myself and my question, I am a musician. I’ve recorded several times using Logic Pro 7, and many variations of Pro Tools, but I haven’t actually used the programs, I’ve just played my axe into them.
