For my simple purposes a free and open source program called Audacity is great.

I use Audacity too. Currently using v.1.3.9 on Windows XP. I'd be interested in confirmation that it's OK under Windows 7 too.
(I'm not planning to change OS any time soon - I hate Microsoft's strategy of forced obsolesence - but I have to cover against the possibility that hardware failures might necessitate a move to a newer version)

hi Mark,
Well ive uploaded Audacity latest verion (Dont ask me which !!)
on to my laptop last night and it seems to be working fine.
messed about making drum loops and they saved fine with no windows errors.
but i also managed to get another freeware called Kristal which is a 16 track recorder, with a mixing desk built in
and you can also add effects too, You can save your tracks either wav or mp3.
Now this is an old piece of software but amazing it works fine with Win7 too.
not sure if i am allowed to put the link up here for kristal so email me if any of you want it.
