Hi Clare. What style of song do you want to write? Will it be similar to the type(s) of covers you do?

Hi Clare,

You can purchase your own user friendly multi-track recorder for under $20 buck from Acoustic Labs by visiting their website at: Acoustic Labs

If you are just a beginner at using multi-track software, Acoustic Labs is the place to start.

Next, Purchase yourself a simple affordable drum machine. You can create or use simple drum beats and record it to track 1 of the acoustic multi-track recorder. On the next track, just strum so chords. On track 3, plug in your microphone and start singing. Best to plug your mic thru a mixer with reverb and from the mixer to the acoustic Lab software. On the other tracks, you can be your own backup chorus. Contact me after you get the hang of it and let me know how it goes.
