I love producing music, but no i want to get a nice software that allows me to produce professionally music and that is easy to handle, learn and manage, can people specialized in the area tell me what kind of software is the best to get easy, practical and more professional results?
By the way i have an Aple Mac Book Pro.
5 point to the best answer!
Logic Pro 8
But don’t expect to get professional results overnight. Producing music is something that can take a whole career to grasp, and the software only provides the tools that *would not hinder you* to get the results. They don’t help you as such, they just don’t put any barriers in your way.
So get swatting up on sound, phase, digital audio, EQ, compression and dynamics, gain structure, effective use of panning and soundstage, etc etc.http://www.homerecording.com/http://www.soundonsound.com/
Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) is a free digital audio editor application. Audacity is cross-platform, using the wxWidgets software library to provide a similar graphical user interface on several different operating systems.
Some of Audacity’s features include:
* Importing and exporting WAV, AIFF, MP3 (via the LAME encoder, downloaded separately), Ogg Vorbis, all file formats supported by libsndfile library
* Version 1.3.2 also supports Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC)
* Recording and playing sounds
* Editing via Cut, Copy, Paste (with unlimited Undo)
* Multi-track mixing
* A large array of digital effects and plug-ins. Additional effects can be written with Nyquist
* Amplitude envelope editing
* Noise removal
* Support for multi-channel modes with sampling rates up to 96 kHz with 24 bits per sample
* The ability to make precise adjustments to the audio’s speed while maintaining pitch (Audacity calls it changing tempo), in order to synchronize it with video, run for the right length of time, etc.
* The ability to change the audio’s pitch without changing the speed.
* Converting cassette tapes or records into digital tracks by automatically splitting one wav (or the other supported types) track into multiple tracks based on silences in the track and the export multiple option.
* Multi-platform: works on Windows, Mac OS X, and Unix-like systems (including GNU/Linux and BSD) amongst others.
The latest versions support Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/Vista, but Windows 95 and NT are not supported.
Audacity can also be used for post-processing of all types of audio, including podcasts. It can be used for finishing podcasts by adding effects such as normalization, trimming, and fading in and out.
It is currently used in the OCR National Level 2 ICT course for the sound creation unit.
