How to create a song & export to wav/mp3 that includes my e drums, vocals & guitar?

[Brett3037]

Hi All,

I'm extremely new to music recording & all that comes with it and I really need some help.
I am currently using a Pentium i4 4gb 64bit w/Windows 7, Alesis Crimson Mesh e-drumkit & Behringer UMC22 Audio Interface.
I had been using Audacity for a few weeks & have recently also started playing around with Tracktion for it's MIDI recording capability.

My goal is to record a song & export to wav/mp3 that includes my e drums, vocals & guitar.
Is this possible, with either of the software programs I have?
I have used Audacity and recorded my e-drums with just a mic but the sound quality is nowhere near as nice as using Tracktion's MIDI recording obviously.

So for example this is what I'd like to achieve:
1. Lay down a electric guitar track through my UMC22 into Tracktion as Track 1
2. Lay down a vocal track using mic into UMC22 into Tracktion as Track 2
3. Lay down bass guitar track through my UMC22 into Tracktion as Track 3
4. Lay down a drum track using my e-drums, through MIDI, using MT Powerdrumkit 2 VST as Track 4
5. Add some effects / eq etc where require
6. Render / Export to a WAV or MP3 file that can be played on WMP, iTunes or burned to an audio CD

Any help on if this is possible, how I should go about it etc would be immensely appreciated!

Thanks all, Brett.

Just go for it! It's possible with Tracktion.

Questions will come up on the way. Just post it here and you will get help.

Thanks Etienne!

Believe me I have tried but I am currently unable to render any file & be able to listen to it in WMP etc!
I have posted a detailed description of what I have tried etc here:

No reply as yet though!

I just wanted to know IF it was actually possible to export a MIDI track along with a vocal stereo track, guitar track etc into 1 rendered file such as a WAV / MP3....

Sure that's possible. Guess: file export render audio file.

I'd recommend to have a look at the manual or watch some basic tutorial videos.
