Creating music is not for everybody. It requires skill, passion, knowledge. Without this, you will never be a successful musician. But sometimes, even having these abilities is not enough, as you also need a tool for helping you create music. Not everybody affords buying a large piano or have the space for it. That's why using a computer software for making music seems like the best idea. Programs like Anvil Studio can really help you unleash your creative potential.

It's a Windows application that allows you to create various types of music and then save it as a MIDI file. Even people who don't have too much knowledge about making music can use this program without problems. Installing the software is not a problem for most users. After completing this, one will have an intuitive interface at his finger tips, allowing him to create music by displaying a virtual piano roll and a stave, on which the musician can add various notes. The program includes a lot of different instruments that can be mixed together in order to create a complex song.

All these instruments sound like the real thing and can have some of their parameters adjusted, like the pitch, volume and so on. An unlimited number of tracks can be added to the program, each one of them having its own instrument and notes. At any point, the user can preview the created notes, helping him make an idea about how the final song will sound like.

Anvil Studio includes some features for customizing some parameters of the song. As such, the tempo can be adjusted, together with some audio effects. The program is compatible with most midi keyboards on the market and can detect them automatically without the user's intervention.

For helping beginners learn how the program works, there are a couple of tutorials and help files available, all accessible using the classical menu.

Pros

It allows creating an unlimited number of tracks, each having its own musical instrument and notes. Besides that, notes can be easily added to a track using a virtual piano roll and a stave. Furthermore, the song can be previewed at any moment using the included player. Furthermore, finished songs can be exported as MIDI files.

Cons

The program requires some music making knowledge for allowing the user to use all its features. Anvil Studio is a music making software that can help you unleash your creative potential.
