A group from the Official Chris de Burgh Mailing List is putting together a tribute CD (their third) of CdeB songs sung by list members. Like the first two, the disc will be presented to Chris himself once it's complete. With the help of a friend with Windows-based sound editing software, I was able to submit a track for the first CD, though I missed out on submitting to the second. I'm hoping to be able to contribute to this third one.
THIS time, though, now that I have a hard drive big enough to do sound editing, I'd like to do this myself entirely on my Mac. My problem: I don't have the necessary software or an external microphone. So, I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of any freeware or shareware software for Mac OS X (preferably Cocoa, though a good Carbon app will do) with the following capabilities: 1. Ability to record live audio, either from a USB mic or, failing that, my flat panel iMac's built-in one. 2. Ability to mix sounds (preferably a multi-track setup, though the ability to do a simple mix by "pasting" a sound file over another would also be acceptable). 3. Ability to add reverb and echo effects (for the vocals) to a sound. I'd also like to get some recommendations on what kind of USB mics are availble, their quality and price (in Canadian dollars if possible) and where I might get one (FYI, I live in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada). Anyone have any advice on this? John A.
