The hell with that. I’ve used Audacity for almost a year now and released 2 professionally recorded hip-hop mixtapes, and i love it. Audacity is yet free and very easy to use. Do some real work with it and then criticise. I’ve used Acid, Cubase, Sonar, Protools Free, and N-Track and none of these “pieces of software” even come close to the accuracy and sound quality that come with Audacity. So yeah, I think that sounds like a challange to me also. “Holla”

There is no reason to short change your recordings, I can't imagine being able to release any sort of professional recording using this peice of software. UNLESS you have the professional plugins to match and which Protools gives you a nice supply of when you purchase it. And an MBox is so cheap these days, why even bother with a free recorder.</p> Although this software does a good, but basic, recording job, I still think you would be best served investing in some kind of cheaper Protools rig.

If I make a demo, I can normalize, compress, EQ, echo, basically do anything I need to do. Frankly, at this point I can't imagine ever needing Cool Edit or ProTools...unless you are a professional engineer, and then you might as well hire a studio.</p> Yes, I use Audacity too on my laptop…it is what I record all my worktapes on.
