Free…
So is there such a thing as a free lunch? well not really.. my experience is that you pay at some point.. however, given the vast array of free software and services out there, I thought I would share some that I use on a day to day basis.
To put this in context, I need sound software for editing wave files and recordings, sound converters to convert say MP3 to WMA or whatever. I also need video converters and editors as well as some business related apps like FTP and Invoicing. I will be providing some online services in a later post, as the following are all software apps (mostly for Windows, although some for MAC’s too)…
Sound Software
http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/masters.html
This software allows you to record and edit wave files (and other formats). You can add effects, cut/paste sections and export out to several formats.

If you just need a basic sound/audio player which is lightweight, this is for you.
http://www.nch.com.au/mixpad/index.html
If you need a full sound mixer, then this application will provide a good base for editing/mixing multi-track audio.
http://www.nch.com.au/dj/index.html
For something a little more specific, this application allows you to DJ mix audio tracks, again with several effects and outputs and tricks.
Video Software
http://www.nchsoftware.com/capture/index.html
If you need to record/edit from say the screen/webcam or other video input, then this application will provide all the tools you need. You can use this to produce instructional videos as well as a mashup of existing video material.

If you need to convert video files from one format to another…
http://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/index.html
Similar to Microsoft’s movie maker, this application allows you to edit/modify video movies with titles and effects. Very simple to use.
Business / Productivity Software
There is so much available, just go to http://www.nchsoftware.com/software/business.html#1
For instance, I am using the EXPRESS INVOICE application, and the VOIP Express Talk application.
There is also FTP software too http://www.nchsoftware.com/ftp/index.html
I am using the CLASSIC FTP client which seems to work well
Most of the software above is donation based which is a cool principle.
I will post more soon!
