Hi Tim
I use ‘Garage Band’ to record and ‘Audacity’ to edit the recording.
Audacity is shareware and it can be downloaded from here http://audacityteam.org/
You can combine tracks and perform various actions such as amplification and applying filters.January 13, 2017 at 8:20 am #46277Jeff: Thanks! I checked out Garage Band. The FAQ’S with comments were not very good for Windows 10. Do you use a Mac? Johnny does. He told me about garage band too. So, I’ll look at it more today. Where do you live? I may meet up with Johnny at The NAMM show. Should be fun. Thanks for your info. Tim
January 13, 2017 at 11:45 am #46307I use mixpad on my pc. Pretty simple and straight forward to use. I believe there is a free version too.
Also you can us reaper. Amazing program but steep learning curve. I shy away from it because I want basic decent recordings and can achieve that through the mixpad. Hope this helps.January 13, 2017 at 12:19 pm #46310Jake: Thanks so much. I will look at it. I am practicing right now and will see how it works. Tim

Hi Tim. Yes, I do use an Apple Mac to record the audio with a Samsung Meteor microphone. Transfer the audio file to my PC using a memory stick and edit the file with Audacity in a Windows 7 OS. I live in South Africa, in a town called Vanderbijlpark about 70km south from Johannesburg. Windows 10 is the main reason I bought my MAC. Cheers Jeff
January 14, 2017 at 2:06 pm #46426Jeff: Thanks. WOW SA. I know a surf guy from Durban. Sean Tompson. I lived by him in California. Anyway, I’ll see how it goes with M10? Tim

I’ve just discovered this really cool tool in Audacity, for checking your recording’s frequency range.

One could use tool this to analyze your recording environment and microphones performance.
