The cost for making music was very expensive 20
  years ago. The recording studio back then rely
  on hardware equipment. So it was difficult for
  any musician or hobbist to music making. When Midi
  was invented in 1980s, where musician could record
  their performance with only themselves, without the
  whole band members around. Midi has the ability to
  comunnicate to the computer in transferring of the
  data. It became much easiler for any one basically
  to do their recording at home. Audio company came
  out with sequencening software and equipment. So the
  cost for music production became much lesser.
  

  The requirements for music making on your pc requires
  operating system Windows 95 and above, Pentium
  processor, as many ram as possible, at least 1 gig of
  free space. To record your songs, you would definitely
  required a good quality sound card like soundblasterlive
  or turtle beach. You need to check whether your
  sound card comes with midi interface so that you can
  connect to your midi equipment.
  

  For beginners and amauter, I would preferred recommending
  using loop-based composition software. For windows would
  be Acid and for mac users are Garageband. Advanced users
  can try using audio and midi mutli-track recording
  software like Logic, Cubase, Protools. You need to get
  Midi Controller (instruments-keyboard, volin, guitar, etc),
  if you would like to record midi tracks. If you would like
  to create or manipulate sound, then I would suggest you go
  for Reason by a company called Propellerhead. It is best
  to mix sound with a mixer. Next, you need a pair of
  studio monitor and a pair of headphones for critical
  listening of your mix.
  

  You can also sample your own sounds by using a sampler or
  by using a drum machine to play your drum sound in your
  track to be recorded. One of the most important item of
  all is the microphone, whereby you record your vocals or
  string instruments. For any one who is scoring music,
  there is a piece of notation softwarewhich can do the job
  for you.
  

  If you are producer, musician or songwriter, You
  will require a lot of sound or background music
  I suggest you get your Royalty Free Music .
