The youngest Seadog has been using Garage Band on the iPad put together some rather neat tunes:
The Infinity Drift – Coastal
He now wants to start using the PC (Windows) and software to record more advanced stuff, using the digital piano and guitar (he plays both). We have a Focusrite USB interface to hook up to the computer.
What software would be a logical step? I see there’s a free version of Avid Pro-Tools, would that be a good introduction?
Some products seem to be way more complicated than he’ll need, so I don’t want to be buying something that’ll be underused. I’m erring towards Pro-Tools as the local youth centre studio uses that, and runs courses on mixing and production every now and then.
