    Well, I used Cool Edit Pro 2.1 and it was great! Unfortunately, it's out of date now and I can't record anything on it anymore ( I don't know if that is because of that). The most important thing to me (an amateur) is that it has a good sound, that it has modern, simple, user-friendly interface and that it has multitrack option, because it's easier for me to record instruments one by one, then all together. EDIT: Cool Edit is working! Yay! I just forgot to press the R button for recording.....oops....

    I think they are talking nonsense, you're an artist not a scientist! Art is about free expression.

    I checked everything....i don't know...to arm a track? what does that mean? No, it's completely dead....no track meters...

    I have problems with recording on Cool Edit. With Audacity it's ok, the microphone works, but I would rather like to use Cool Edit because it's easier to me....Why do I have this problem?

    Mostly I get a melody in my head and then I try to find lyrics to it, but sometimes I also give myself a theme, like " I want to make a song about...idk....homesickness" etc.

    I was always very creative and was always making up stuff. As I kid I wrote novels inspired by movies I saw or the R.L.Stine books I started writing songs with 11. My inspiration were pop stars at that time. I was imagining I was a big pop star like Britney Spears or something and then I started to write songs for myself. It all started as a game. I evan had a notebook where I was writing my "tour dates" LOL. Then I noticed I was good at it and continued to write. In high school I started also writing poems which were more intimate then the songs.

    Thanks, guys! What does vst stand for? I usually record drums with a sound on keyboards...but that's lousy right?

    What do I need for home recording? I've got keyboards, software Audacity and I'm planing to buy a microphone. Is that enough?

    Well, that's easy, you create music first and then find lyrics that fit the music, but don't preoccupy with meaning. Just brainstorm words and focus on the rhyme and the sound of the words. For example "Do you want to be mine? Oh, baby, your so fine, I gotta cross that line and make you feel mine." LOL Although I don't know how meaningless that actually is?? It is shallow for sure. But, why do you want to make meaningless lyrics? I have a bunch of meaningless lyrics which fit good with the music, but I'm trying to make them meaningful now... P.S. I think Anthony Kiedis is the master of meaningless lyrics!

    I listen to all kinds of music, but I create mostly in pop music with little varieties. It's kind of natural for me. If I try I can write a rock or hip hop song, but when it comes to lyrics - I'm a sensitive female, I can't make angry or very dirty lyrics when I'm not like that. For example I can't write about gangs or "homies in the hood" cause I know nothing about it.

    I write melody first, then lyrics. It's is easier for me to fit the lyrics into the music, then vice versa. But, in the last couple of years, my melodies became just so usual....I can't seem to come up with something original...

    No, it's ok, I learned a lot You mentioned some other sites that have copyrights, which sites are these? ReverbNation? Myspace?

    Oh, thanks, John, for your detailed answer, I appreciate it So, you're saying that if someone say, steals my lyrics I can practically sue them and present this forum as evidence? Does that really work? Theoratically speaking....

    I was wondering how does copyright work on this forum, i.e. if I post my lyrics here, how can I be sure someone wouldn't just copy it, put it on their song and publish it without giving me credit?
