   Perfect for when you are on the go.

   Bandlab may not be as powerful as the other DAWs out there. But the one thing it does have is a mobile app. The app is constantly improving on itself and the support team is very personable. There are limitations such as no way to creat busses and limited to only 16 tracks. But you can utilize other software to enhance tracks if needed. For someone who is always on thr Go and theres not much time to work on a project at home or in the studio bandlab will be your hero. You can simply arrange from your phone where ever you are. The plug ins are very elaborate and powerful as well. They have virtual instruments which i have yet to see from the few other DAWs ive used. And their online Mastering is actually very very rich in sound if you gain stage correctly. Between me and you. I also love the cloud aspect of it. I use bandlab as a form of backing up my work in case disaster occurs. So for that they get give stars.

   🏁 Competitors: FL Studio Mobile

   👍 Pros:    Cloud storage|Mobile app|Simple yet powerful and efficient tool|Virtual product generator

   👎 Cons:    Limited features|No bus|Sometime not work smooth & lagging

• Ran out of breath during the chorus and nearly passed out haha.

  It does just have a silly hole and leaks saliva like mad. Should get it a tiny sanitary napkin haha. I'm using Cakewalk mostly, or https://bandlab.com which is the same thing on the web. Source: 10 months ago

• Digital music creation newbie here

  Yeah, BandLab is simple and easy to get up and running and could be worth trying. (Well, I've tried BandLab online at bandlab.com rather than the app.) It's self-contained and comes with its own instruments. I think it could do ambient and cinematic, but I won't vouch for orchestral-level cinematic per se (but getting orchestras to satisfy me in any DAW might involve more tweaking than I would bother with.).

• What is the best music production software for a total beginner

  Bandlab.com works in browser, comes with lot of loops, some instruments and effects included. 50M total users - you can easily find somebody for collaboration, more people can work together. You can look into and modify some of other people songs - great entertainment value. Source: about 1 year ago

• Where can I buy punk/pop punk drum kits?

  Bandlab.com has a massive free sample library (just need an account, or to connect a google account). Searching for "Punk" results two Pop Punk sample packs. Source: about 1 year ago

• How lucky/laid off

  There are lots of places where all you have to do is upload your music, and the website will distribute/release it across a ton of platforms (Youtube, Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music etc.) I've used a place called DistroKid to do it, but there are a few others out there that do the same kind of deal.

• Can someone walk me through the issues i’m dealing with? 15s video is linked showing the issue, as it is difficult to describe in text. Thanks in advance.

  Have you tried opening https://distrokid.com in a new tab or the iOS app? Or tried opening it on a computer instead of a phone? DistroKid’s website isn’t really set up very well for phone use when you need to set up your account or upload music. Source: 11 months ago

• Where would the first place the new song would be released?

  I’m checking with Dashon again today to see if he knows why the song isn’t on YouTube or Spotify yet, but it’s all up to https://distrokid.com/ at this point. Source: about 1 year ago

• Making money on Sporify with AI?

  Then you can upload it using ( https://distrokid.com/ ). You can create mixes on youtube or Spotify and make some passive income. Source: about 1 year ago

• Weird question about Spotify and Soundcloud.

  I recommend looking into a service called Distrokid that serves as a publishing house for independent musicians/bands. As you've probably read about, publishing is the crux of many tragic stories among songwriters and bands. Distrokid is one of a few service providers that streamlines the rights management and distribution of original material to the major platforms and streaming services. If you've recorded...
