Get Audacity and spend the $25 on CD's.

I think you can normally get a few decent ones free.

Cakewalk Express is pretty decent to start with.

Acid 4.
Cooledit Pro
Logic platinum pro
Pro Tools

is there something out which works under Linux?

[BluesNRock87]

audacity's site has a link for linux, and its free, i tried it out on mrid;s suggestion and it works for what i need, just simple recording, hopefully at some point ill stop being lazy, drag my amp, guitar, and pedals, up to my room, and record something for you all to hear.......

on that note, mrid, does audacity make mp3's of the stuff u record or do u need that other link? also, how can i get mp3's hosted on the web for free?
