I hope this is the correct section for this, but just recently, I thought I might want to start making music via the computer, so I got this freeware called "Gungirl Sequencer". After using it, I released it doesn't have any sounds of instruments or anything included, do they distribute packages filled sounds that would be good for this kind of tool? Or do I have to make the sounds myself or get it from random sources? If I need a kind of package, can someone show me where to get a free one and give me a URL or something? Thanks in advance!

I\'m not sure how all of it works, honestly, but when I joined a forum and just kind of lurked they gave critique to some people and said that their instrument samples aren\'t realistic enough :\ So apparently there\'s something called instrumental samples that people use in software. Most of them were using Fruity Loops software though... I don\'t think that\'s free though :\ Actually, let me take a look at a book I have to see what program they use on that. I think it\'s free, but don\'t hold me to it.

I haven\'t tried the software yet, but here is what my book says,

\"[b]Audacity[/b]- Audacity is an excellent sound editor that is available for free.\"

LOL... Yeah, that would be obvious /blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' /> If it doesn\'t come with the software then do a google search for sound samples... Not sure how much it will return for you though :S

I played with a ringtone creator once that allowed me to use different instruments, thought it was trialware, and I cant remember the name; I think for what your looking for you will struggle to find what your wanting for free, but id suggest trying [url=\"http://www.cakewalk.com/homemusicians.asp\"]Cakewalk[/url] trial as its exactly what your wanting...just perhaps not price wise 8-)

Yes, I was going to suggest Cakewalk but I knew once he looked at the price the software was out of the picture lol. My father bought Cakewalk way back when and I have an old version of it....I want the newer versions, but the price is SO steep lol.
