    I fancy a bit of experimentation with music editing. I'd like to be able to change elements of music as well as blend different tracks together, so i would need software capable of loading more than one song at once. Can anyone recommend some good, easy to use software? Preferably free.

    Audacity, it's free, opensource, reasonably advanced and easy to use.

    Enjoy.

    Any that look a bit prettier to use? I remember my brother having one or two on his laptop when he was manager at a club and they were cool. A bit more colourful and pretty, and i remember one having a vinyll disc to spin.

    I'm only really interested in mixing music, and editing the qualities slightly.

    I've only used Audacity. It's a pretty simple program that includes advanced features and it's free.

    I go to a school with a lot of guitarist and... I guess you would call them "rappers." And they all use Audacity, I've used it quite a few times and it's was fairly simple to use. Audacity is the best, free program you can get as far as I know.

    i use audacity also, but it does not do what you are looking for. It would be helpful for me to know your operating system so i can find a better piece of software for what you are doing...

    This.

    Try Mixcraft. Our school uses it and I think it looks somewhat like Garageband. It's a prettier thing than Audacity.
