Born from a wish
I'm taking my first steps into home recording with my guitar and I'm using the software linked at the bottom of this page.

I use the following.

-My guitar
-Guitar lead with a 3.5mm converter on one end
-Line in port on my soundblaster live soundcard
-ASIO4ALL: Sound card driver that cuts the delay between playing and hearing the sound.
-Kristal Audio Engine: For applying effects, modelling amps and recording.
-Audacity: For editing recordings made with Kristal

Since I already had the sound card and the computer I've spent a few dollars on the converter plug for the lead. Everything else seems to be freeware.

So far I'm having an awesome time. The VST's at http://frettedsynth.asseca.com/ampsims.html provide a wide range of effects to play with without spending a heap on pedals.

I hadn't seen Kristal mentioned here before so I thought I'd post about it. It seems to be a great way for guitarists to get into recording for cheap.
