I just finished my term tests for university and it was really really stressing. But my interest in games is ever-decreasing, and I feel like making some music. I do have guitar pro 6, but it's not like i could do anything too meaningful with it, either i don't know how to make the sounds more authentic, or that the engine just can't do stuff like other studio software. So my question is, can you recommend some good/easy/helpful music making software so my Christmas break would be much less boring? thanks in advance.

Cakewalk SONAR and Pro Tools are cool.

Reaktor 5, Rammfire ( imo, the best multi distortion effect), and of course Logic. If you got the money then you also can't go wrong with Pro Tools

ummmm... wow. In fact, I do write songs and play the guitar (and sing). Problem is, I want to spice up my songs with drums and basslines.
 
@Mordukai:   
Logic looks really good. Sigh, but being a mere college student who doesn't even know if he wants to pursue a music career or not...
