| Just wondering what everyone is using for home recording on their PC's. I'm looking for a package, either freeware or to purchase. Don't need anything real fancy like ProTools just the basics and possibly more. Thanks, Rich |

| Audacity. But be careful when downloading, I see reports that there is other software/toolbars now included in the downloads and you need to check carefully and opt out of any of the crap. Previously, that wasn't the case. |

Hey Greg-
I just learned there is network support for processing plug ins- have you used that function?
"ReaMote"? |

Another plus on Reaper. If you decide to purchase, it is cheep, but you can play with it for free. Also, there is a forum that is PACKED with info....

I have used it for years, and get a "free" update every now and then. I find it pretty easy to use, and have a few plug ins also. Multi effects, etc......... |

| Jay, I have the original $40 Reaper with one paid update to it. I've added one reverb plug in and run it with EZDrummer and EZKeys VST's. There's a lot of support available but I've never needed it or used ReaMote. |

As on any topic...you'll get lots of answers.
I have bought, and use or have used, Logic, Cubase, Studio One, Reaper, and Cool Edit (now Adobe Audition).
I happen to use Cubase in my studio most regularly. However, if I were starting fresh and looking to get the most bang-for-the-buck, I would pick Reaper. Astonishing feature set for a very reasonable price.
Cheers,
Mike
