Freeware Production Software?

I've just been reading a bit up on James Holden and it sounds like he basically used public domain freeware to produce/remix a lot of his work... anyone know of any decent production freeware?
I'm hoping to start doing some of my own production/remix work, and I'll probably shell out the loot for some pro software too, but I really dig HOlden's sound, so I figured I try to give that a shot first, see if I can come up with any of the progs he used and try to do something with it.
Any help is appreciated, as always.
Peace, Cheers,

This looks like a great piece of software, with one MAJOR flaw...
NO MAC SUPPORT!
How can you have a program to create/produce/edit audio and not release a Mac version? Windows bites for music production in general...
Anyone got a decent freeware prog for mac, or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Cheers,

Wrong tree I'll accept, but wrong forum? DJ's can't be producers now?
Sorry if I misunderstood, but I figured DJ discussion would encompass all aspects of being a DJ, not just the "What should I use to mix?" questions...

EDIT: BTW, still looking for that Mac software :-) Don't make me resurrect the Dell from the recesses of my closest...
2nd Edit: Obviously I didn't note that this has changed forums.. my bad... point still stands ;-) |

the renoise tracker has a mac version I think.
www.renoise.com
It isnt 100% free, but the program that they give you isnt handicapped in any ways except you can't use ASIO or render your song into a wav wihtout registering. But even then, you can still make a sound file by just using a cable to record it while its playing in the program, and if your looking for freeware I doubt that you have equipment that uses asio drivers anyway.
There is alot of "tracker" music software that is free, and some of it works on the mac. There is actually a whole separate and more computer oriented and grossly male dominated scene that revolves around tracker programs.
there is another one called modplug that is open source, maybe it compiles on a mac, not so sure.
Check out renoise, I think the tracker style of music making is a very fun way to sequence, not to mention how much more affordable it is.
You are still going to need to track down samples and (some)effects. trackers dont ususaly have synths and stuff bundled with them, but they (mostly)support vsts these days. |
