There are many alternatives when it comes to choosing an application to compose and record music, but few free alternatives offer as many options as DarkWave Studio. It's a modular production environment that, as well as having its own virtual instruments, offers compatibility with VSTs and includes an 8-channel multitrack recorder.

Music creation software for Windows

The program is compatible with ASIO and MME sound cards, as well as allowing you to control any active virtual device by means of a MIDI controller keyboard. It offers a modular system, that will allow us to send the signals between the devices as we choose, unlike any other applications that are used in audio editing.

Among the virtual instruments that it includes we will find ES DGenR8 (drum beat synthesizer that recreates the legendary Roland TR-909 sound), ES BassHead (analog synthesizer that is similar to the TB-303), ES Stomp (synthesizer techno drum) and ES SpatialVerb (reverb processor).

If you're looking for a free and complete solution to compose your songs, you should try out DarkWave Studio.
