If you are on Windows
Reaper
NTrack Studio
MixCraft
Studio-One

If on Apple Mac - GarageBand, Logic

Try demo versions and see which one you can wrap your brain around

I have been using Mixcraft (just upgraded to Mixcraft 8) - it's cheap and simple to use !!

I strongly suggest Reaper for starting out. Firstly is the cost...... you can download it and try it out fully functional for free. If you choose to buy it you can buy it for $60. It will get you started but after some time you may wish to buy something else. Reaper has the same features as other DAW's but Studio one is one of the most impressive ones out there.

Everything from modeling to the real deal, my house looks like a music store.

Truthfully there's a fair-sized learning curve for any DAW. But if you already have Cubase LE you might as well start with that. You can always spend more money later. And once you have a handle on the basics, most DAWs offer demo versions you can try out to see if they suit you better.
Good luck and have fun!

  This is so true. If youre familiar with a DAW stick with it. Ive been with Cubase since the Atari days. Ive tried using other DAWS that have come along that promised something better, but they all had steep learning curves.
   In the end they all do the same thing and that is they let you record music and get a finished tune done. The only real difference is the interface you prefer to work with.

I'd recommend not using any recording software. I do all my recording live, direct out of the headphone jack into a zoom recorder. I make a loop on the gr 55, then improvise over it. I then edit or enhance the audio with wavelab. It then goes up on bandcamp.
