Question

best software for audio production for beginners.

Mar 12, 2013 12:47AM PDT

I've want to try my hand at creating and producing music through audio software but I have absolutely no experience. Does anyone know about a cheap and novice-like audio software that I could try? It would be better if I could download it from cnet downloads also.

Garageband is good. Some others, Linux multimedia for Windows ( free ) Ableton Live Lite also free I think.
