this is another program that was once a paid for digital audio workstation and tracktion released it for free in late 2018 you can have unlimited tracks including MIDI and audio you don't get as many free plugins with tracktion t7 but the ones that it does come with are fairly decent you will want to download third party plugins especially if you'll be using virtual instruments and there are a ton of free plugins out there so that's not really a huge deal breaker with this free DAW one of the things that you may either love or hate is the user interface and layout of tracktion t7 everything is laid out on the one screen there isn't a separate screen for the mixer or piano roll or any thing like that you can access it all from the main page and it didn't take long for me to catch on to this layout and once I did catch on to it I really liked the workflow I find that the interface doesn't get in the way of making music now this next daw on the list isn't technically free but you can download the demo and use it for as long as you like and the demo is the full unlocked version of the software this is Reaper and like I said the Reaper demo is the full software the only thing is that there's a five-second delay before you can start a project orgo into a project when you first load reaper up which doesn't affect your music at all if you do decide to download it and you really enjoy using reaper please show them some support by purchasing a license it's only like $60 and it will help them to continue making this great software also if you plan on using this commercially you must purchase a commercial license Reaper has no limitations the only limitations are what your audio interface can handle and what your computer can handle so unlimited audio and MIDI tracks with an unlimited number of tracks recorded at the same time Reaper comes with a large collection of decent effects plugins plus you can add all of your third-party plug-ins in Reaper as well another cool thing is that you can even run it on a portable USB Drive

if you want to personally I think Reaper is a great alternative to Pro Tools if you're enjoying this so far and getting some value out of it please give it a thumbs up it really helps the channel out and I appreciate it so much now on to the fourth daw on the list and this one is LMMS. lmms is a lot like FL Studio it's very easy to start making music in lmms as long as you don't plan on recording instruments too much and you just want to use virtual instruments for your music production as lmms does not allow you to record audio into it you can record audio in another program and bring it into lmms so you're not completely limited to virtual instruments this is an open source digital audio workstation that is completely driven by its community and I've heard that as lmms continues to grow and update they may be adding audio recording in the very near future I'm not going to promise that that's just what I've heard lmms does come with some instruments and effects plugins but you'll want to add third-party plugins to give you more variety you can use your computer keyboard to control instruments if you don't have a MIDI keyboard yet and of course you can use a MIDI controller if you do have one or you have the other option of drawing all your MIDI in on the piano roll the next free digital audio workstation on the list is soundbridge this free digital audio workstation focuses on simplicity they wanted to create a DAW that is full-featured and easy to use the channel strip has many presets and you can also add third-party plugins for more variety one of the biggest highlights is the free ritmix drum plugin that you get with soundbridge and this is probably the best free drum machine plug-in out there you get the MPC style pads that you can load your sounds into and edit however you like plus you can also use it like a sequencer so if you're looking for that MPC style plug-in to make your beats or program drums then sound bridge and the Ritmix is a must download for you the final free daw for Windows on the list is magix music maker free and personally I think this one is great for newcomers to audio production as the sound pool loops that are included are a great way to start learning how to arrange and edit musician a digital audio workstation MAGIX music maker free comes with four sound pools &

three instruments soundpools are like loop packs and each one has a particular style and sound so all of the loops in that soundpool will work together easily plus you can mix and match loops from other soundpools I find that MAGIX Music Maker is a pretty easy program to learn and you get basic effects plugins plus a guitar amp simulator and another plus is the instruments that magix music maker free comes with they actually sound great magix music maker free can be a great way to start learning to make music and recording MIDI or audio on your computer it does have some track limitations and it doesn't allow you to add third-party plugins you'll have to upgrade your version for that upgrading your version also opens up many more sounds instruments and features so now I have a few honorable mentions to add to this list if you're ever thinking of working in a pro studio one day you may want to download Pro Tools first as a lot of pro studios still operate on Pro Tools and Pro Tools first is the free version of that program another honorable mention is Ableton Live Lite Ableton Live is a great daw for solo songwriters or even bands the lite version is basically the full software but it has a track limit of 8 tracks you can still do a lot with it also it's only free

if you get it bundled with hardware or software but it's actually bundled with quite a bit of gear so chances are you may have this DAW already and the final honorable mention is presonus Studio One prime studio one is becoming very popular so you might want to try the free version and see if it fits your workflow and style that way if you ever encounter it in another studio you'll at least know how to use Studio One the ideal music production software for me is one where the interface doesn't interfere with your music production you can just record your music and get down to business without having to mess with settings or anything like that click up here for my audio recording software if you'd like to see more info connect with me .and subscribe my channel phenomenal singh there i upload my cover songs.
