Best free music production software?

[Olli_]

Hi 

 

I was wondering what's the best free music production software to use especially for a beginner? I also have a Yamaha P45 keyboard and was wondering if I can use this with the correct software and if so how?

 

Thanks for the help

Is it MIDI compatable? Ableton lite is free haven't used it though. If you have a mac garageband is one of the easiest to use. Or try to find a crack for FL studio.

Thanks for the reply my keyboard doesn't have a midi port but has a USB to host which I have the cable for. I'm on Windows  used garage band on the Ipad and think it's great

if you are looking for a DAW software, check out REAPER (https://www.reaper.fm/)

 

it's technically not "free" but you have unlimited trial time without any limit on functionality.

 

they only throw you a nagscreen each time the software is started.

Try this one it seems decent. And then save up for FL studio if you are serious about music

It was a long time a go but remember using a trial of FL Studio did seem to enjoy using it.
