Advise Please....Which software
Appologies if this is in the wrong place but I can't see anywhere else it should go.
I need a bit of guidence as to what software to use for a school.
I've been using Sonar since it was 'Pro Audio' all those years ago and have never got to know anything else very well as it fitted my needs. But now I've been ask by a local school for suggestions.
The school is a 'Primary' school age range (4 to 11) and the idea is to allow the kids to be able to record themselves and play a bit with midi sounds. Hardware wise e.g. soundcards, PC specs etc I've no problems but software well.... The problem with Sonar is I can't see 4 to 11 year olds getting their heads around it easily.
I had a little look about and there seems loads of other s/w about that can do similar things but I was hoping that you guys can sorta point me in the right direction.
They have a mixing desk that can give them up to 6 channels at once so I guess the softwere would have to be able to record up to 6 channels at once. Although 4 channels would be good enough. They'd need to be able to play and record at the same time aswell. they would also need to be able to add effects. These are things that I just take for granted with Sonar but as I wrote above I just don't know other software. I suppose what I really want is a very simple cut down sonar ;)
Please can you give me some suggestions/ideas.
Thanks in advance - Paul
