I wrote a song a long time ago and wish to play around with it some. What program would be best to use?

I don't have the song recorded, but it's a slow song.

What sort of hardware do you have?
For example, are you able to connect a keyboard to your computer, compose a backing track and then attach a microphone and sing?

Interesting name for a program, but ok. I'm not sure if I can hook a keyboard up to this computer, it's a laptop. I never tried it, although, I don't think that will work. That's got me curious though.

So, before I replied to this topic, how did you invision creating the music for this song and then singing it?

I also have cakewalk music creator as well as audacity, I use audacity more though it is easier to use I think

I like audacity both on the PC and Mac. Works great.

Quick Windows Sequencer all the way!

And if not, goldwave, audacity and studio recorder are awesome programs to use for strictly sound editing.

Having a laptop might prove to be a problem though, since most of them don't have a propper line in jack. In fact, the only reason mine does is because I got a docking station with mine, which has one in the back. The laptop itself doesn't have one at all.
