[get_nick]

maybe b will know, but i'm looking for a software i can install on my computer to be able to record lyrics over instrumentals. i dont need to produce the music, i just want to layer vocals over the music.

i just want to get a microphone and headset for my computer so i can record some stuff.

I prefer FlexiMusic Wave Editor, an audio recording and editing software to mix vocals over instrumentals or music.

Audacity is free, and will do what you want it to. That said, I am using Acid Pro.

Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder

you could always go Pro-Tools but then you're looking at spending upwards of $8000 or so.
I'd much rather spend the $300 and settle for something that can get the job done.

Cakewalk is sooooooo old now.

Sonar FTW! thats what I use but I pair it up with Sound Forge.

Sonar + Vsampler + Sound Forge = FTW!!!!!



BTW if you're looking for the older vers of sound forge, it's not put out by Sony, its I believe sonic factory or something.
