Mark’s Answer

Hi Stephan!

Ableton Live is an amazing Digital Audio Workstation. You can read about system requirements here - https://www.ableton.com/en/products/live-lite/system-requirements

If you're already comfortable and familiar with Apple products, Logic Pro X. You can learn more at https://www.apple.com/logic-pro/

Avid's Pro Tools is another... For a free taste, you can download Pro Tools First for free https://www.avid.com/pro-tools

Hope this helps!!

DJ’s Answer

Hey Stephan!

Some other tools that music pros use are VSTs (Virtual Studio Technologies). VSTs are used to make sounds, emulate instruments, add effects, mix/master/EQ, etc.

You can find a variety of free VSTs here: https://blog.landr.com/best-free-vst-plugins/

Good luck Stephan and have fun!
