I’m trying to find a good program that I can use to record my own sound( e.g. record voices etc). If anyone could provide me with some suggestions it would be great. Thanks in advance. ---

Hey!! Sorry I’m late… n-Track is a mediocre stereo sound recording program that uses your soundcard. It’s pretty cheap and easy (like I like my wo…hang on, wrong forum). Anywho - it’s only $50 and you can get it here: [http://www.fasoft.com](http://www.fasoft.com) For the soundtrack thing, I suggest you read this post: [http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22226&highlight=copyright](http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22226&highlight=copyright) There ya go!!

It is kinda confusing, but for the price, it does the job. Usually what I will do is use zero to start recording and the space bar to stop. Then save it, then on the harddrive where n-track saves its stuff, you can find the wav there. Good luck!! ---

Not a clue. I know there a hundreds of programs out there to do what you are looking for (and more). I originally got n-track to record myself playing guitar. It was suggested by someone at a Guitar Center in Phoenix. They’ve got a few hundred programs there to ranging from $80 to $600. ---

Have you thought about using the Windows Sound Recorder? Its not all that great but for little sounds it should do alright. If you want really hi-fi sound I’d say get a USB Mic and softawre designed specifically for USB mics. ---

Windows sound record is in accessories: Start\>Programs\>Accessories\>Entertainment\>Sound Recorder (in Win98). It actually does work pretty well if you have a quiet computer. Mine picks up the power supply or the harddrive and leaves a whining sound in the background. I’ve heard of acid 3.0 and I’ve heard good things… ---

I should have made it more clear before…I’m not looking for a program so much to compose stuff, but I’m looking for a high-quality program that I can use to record stuff(my voice…etc) and then be able to have effects and editing capabilities…Anyone have a suggestion for such a program? ---

Well here’s the software i’ve used: -cooledit pro for recording anykind of sound -soundforge for editing / optimizing the soundfiles Fruity loops is much more of a music maker - ie you take sounds and turn them into songs. Great, but definitely not for recording. [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/sound-recording-program/22416.md?page=2)
