Music Program

[Dude_Doc]

Can anyone suggest a good music program. Maybe not too hard to begin with, but a good one.

For playing (WinAmp), creating (FastTracker) or downloading (WinMX)?

WinAmp. :)

Nah, don't download winamp, on my computer it ate RAM. After awhile the program required almost 256mb... you'd be better off with music match.

I have been using winamp on my 64 mb ram comp for ages and it works like a charm ;)

Why just have one? We've got winamp, windows media player, quicktime...

[Dude_Doc]

No, I was looking for a program to create music. Is there any other program (good ones) besides "trackers"?

[DjCiD]

Very useful thing is GoldWave. FastTracker is a DOS program working with MOD files, so it may be harder to use.

[DjCiD]

Cool, I'm gonna have to try that one out too.

Thanks Caid ;)

[Dude_Doc]

Thanks. And in return, I've found a webside where you can download all their tracks for free!

You were probably using the new Winamp3. I would highly recommend to stick with Winamp 2. (unless very fast computer)

[Caid Ivik]

I use WinAmp 3. I haveno problems with it, i.e.I play MechCommander 2, where I can't start music, with music played in WinAmp and it is working properly. Maybe that's effect of my 384 MB RAM...

[Andrew]

Yes if you have a fast enough computer it is good. It just uses a lot more memory and processing power.

Example:

On my old pentium 2 233mhz, 64mb ram computer winamp 2 worked fine (although couldnt do much else when it ran) Winamp 3 froze computer and wouldn't play music right.( it took a while to load also)

I hate winamp 3, but I like the version prior to that.

I haven't noticed it being slow, but the visualizations are so much worse!

The main music program for me is Windows Media Player 9.

For editing music, Goldwave is great.
