Im looking for a music program so i can edit some of my songs. I dont have anything at all. And im not amazing with computers so i want something thats relatively easy to use like garage band but for XP.

Oh yea and it needs to be free

audacity is good if you wanna cut up a song and erase some stuff or move some parts. you wont really get a music mixing program like garageband for free, but if i were you i would check out Ableton or Adobe Audition. Adobe audition is more suited to doing editing and mixing while ableton is all about creating new music and remixing.

I agree 100% with the advice you got in this thread. Those are both great places to start

I've used Audacity for a few years for recording and such, I'm a supporter. Try it out

ableton live is hella good. expensive if you are looking to buy it. I have used audacity, pretty good for for just editing. and ya virtual dj is pretty good for mixing. also a free open source program like virtual dj, called djay I think. might just be for mac though, can probably find open source stuff for most everythign.
