Hello board users, I ask you this (humbly).
What is a good “basic” music creation program to let me get my feet wet with that is’nt very complicated. The kind where I can layer sample and tracks on a timeline to create a tune. Thank you very much in advance. |

If you have a Mac: Garageband.
If you have Windows: Fruityloops. Those’re pretty basic. |

I second sawtooth. GarageBand is incredibly powerful. It’s basically Logic, then Apple came along and removed every possible thing in the GUI that could be confusing.
There are some limitations, but if your a noob you’re not going to run into them for a while, and for $79 … I mean hell … buy a mac mini to go with it and you’re not too far out of the ballpark of FL Studio + a nice sound card. |

I use magix audio 10, which is about 20something dollars these days at the discount on-line software houses. It’s very easy to use, and has flexibility, so that it does not “feel” like value software.
If you’d like to go even simpler, the Sawcutter 2.0 synthesizer from www.cuttermusic.com is easy to use, allows you to record your songs, and yet costs 25 dollars. Its wave file sampling features allow you to vary the sounds without a lot of synth knowledge. My remix “randy” is an example of a sawcutter song. |
