OverCoat Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 There's a good guide up now on how to get started with Cockos Reaper http://www.ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?t=13478 100% free. I use Renoise but you probably wouldn't understand this one at all. Unless you like hexadecimals. I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunahorum Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 well we don't really edit mp3's until the final step. We create them. Editing encompasses taking an already made waveform and doing something to it like making it louder, making it echo, mastering it, ect. To start off, we have to make the waveform before we can edit it. There are programs called sequencers that you can use to enter musical commands such as how loud the note is, when the note is played, how long it lasts, and much more. google the following and download/research A free sequencer is called cockos reaper. A free synth is called synth1 a free demo sequencer is called FL Studio another free demo sequencer is called Propellerheads Reason another free demo sequencer is called Cakewalk Sonar go to the guides and tutorial section of these forums and look at "how do I remix for free" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tensei Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 MP3 Editing?! Ummm, Audacity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I definitely think that you want a sequencer, unless you actually want to edit some mp3's. What kind of mp3's? Did you record them yourself, or are you just editing someone elses work? If you are editing somone elses song, what for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fray Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Didn't see the "mp3 editing" bit. Nothing edits mp3s directly AFAIK -- you have to decompress them to .wav, edit, and then reencode (bad). If you're going to edit something, try to get the source lossless, i.e. uncompressed or using a lossless format like FLAC. For .wav editing, Audacity is the best free one.
