Excellent Recording Package!This is without a doubt one of the best recording software packages available.
Very intuitive and very easy to use. you can be recording in no time.
Using the drum and bass loops provided it is very easy to lay down a backing track and to add your guitar playing.
It is amazing.
The loops provided are MAINLY funk orientated so you will need to purchase some other loop cds at a later date. (if you are into rock, like me!)
Check out this link for my first attempt (mistakes inc.) with Cakewalk Guitar Tracks Pro v3 (with a crappy soundcard)http://www.soundclick.com/bands/1/mikemaley_music.htm
Most places are selling this at £99 - £139 so do yourself a favour and get this while you can.
It records audio only (for midi you will need Sonar or Cubase) but for a very simple yet professional package this is a must for any guitarist.
You can get better sound quality by having a better soundcard but even if you have a basic sound card you can get very good results.
Comes with IKMultimedia’s AMPLITUBE plugin plus loads of other effects to spice up your recording (those of you with Pods or V-Amps will probably want use your amp modelers for your guitar tones)
Well worth considering for an easy introduction to the world of digital recording.
Simple to use but sounds fabulous
This is definitely one of the easiest pieces of software I’ve ever used. I’ve been knocking out tracks on an old multi track tape deck for years, and this has all the ease of tape - but once you’ve recorded you can cut and paste too! The screen looks like a hardware mixer so it’s easy to get head around and the effects work just like pedals and sound great. I would say this is great for old rockers like me, and anyone new to making sounds on their computer. The kids are starting to use it to record themselves singing along to CDs and reading bits of books and jokes, just like we used to do with old tape recorders, except this stuff sounds really good! We sent a CD to grandparents in Australia this Christmas which earned us major Brownie points.
If you play an instrument for fun, and don’t have a PHD in computers you should buy this software. I’m recommending it to all my friends, which should tell you something!
