For a great wav editor with great effects, etc, try

Sonic Foundry's Sound Forge.  For midi and wav editing

abilities, multi-track, sequencing, and much much

more, try something like Cakewalk.


Keep in mind, setting up an audio station/studio takes

more than just gear.  You have to do something with it

and have the talent.


Also, don't get caught up in the hype of all the

different gear and software out there, or you'll get

lost and will only hurt your music abilities.  Bare

bones is often better in most situations.  Or, as you

buy something new, study it, master it, etc, before

you buy your next piece of gear or software.
