Where do I begin if I want to create music using just a computer?

Hayden asked:


This isn’t my profession or anything and I’m completely amateur, but sometimes I come up with tunes in my head that I’d like to save somewhere and work with. I don’t play an instrument but just want to experience with creating tunes with some sort of digital program. Does this sort of thing exist?

Where can I learn to create digital music?

Robert P asked:


Basically, what I want is to be able to come up with a great piece of music in my head, and then transfer that onto my computer. I want to create orchestral pieces for my own entertainment.

Where can I find software that gives me access to a library of digital instruments, the ability to lay them down in a manner of my choosing, and then export the whole shebang in an mp3 format for as little money as possible?

And then, after that, where can I learn to use the software?

I’m creating a digital music library from CD’s, which audio file format should I use and why?

ILLUMINOVA asked:


Here is my dilemma, I want to consolidate all of my music to a huge hard drive. I have thousands of CD’s and want to know which file format will sound best (and at what kbps I should import) and be the most “universal” should I in the future want to get a portable digital player OR convert to another format. I don’t want to deal with a whole lot of hassle to do the following:
1.- Burn music to disc should I want to
2.- Transfer music to a portable player
3.- Create DVD’s with CD audio for importing into my car’s Hard Drive based audio system (I think it only accepts wav files)

Any opinions, thoughts, or “answers” to my current dilemma would be very appreciated.

Thanks for reading and your assistance.
Referencing my car stereo, I wanted to clearify, the Pioneer Avic-Z2 is what I’m using, and it plays a bunch of audio file formats but unfortunately it only “imports” to the hard drive WAV files (as far as I can tell).

How do I create a photo slide show with music to show people my vacation pictures?

npo1026 asked:


I just got back from a great vacation and wanted to create something to show friends all of my pictures. If I burn a CD with about 300 digital pictures and put a few music files on there for background music, will it play in slideshow format on a DVD player? I’ve played burned audio CDs on my DVD player before, but I wasn’t sure if picture files would show up on the television.

If this idea won’t work, what is the best way to accomplish my goal? Can Windows Media Player do this? I have heard of a $90 program that will, but I’m sure there are better options….

Can 1 CD even accomodate that many pictures with 4 or 5 songs?

Do I need to burn my project to a DVD with my DVD burner?

Thanks all…

Transferring music on ipod to new account and computer?

irepresstheband asked:

I have a new laptop and would like to create a new iTunes account on it. However, before I do it, I would like to know if there is any way to copy the music on my iPod to a new account on a different computer. I am also thinking about buying a Touch soon and I would like to know if I can transfer the music to my Touch, or will Digital Rights Management prevent me from doing that. Thanks…
