Good music production apps/software for beginners?

I'm trying to learn how to produce music on my own and am looking for good music production apps/software for beginners.

Preferably, something that is free but if it costs that's okay.

I have a HP laptop and iPhone if that helps.

One software is audacity, which allows you to edit soundwaves.

www.audacity.com

See list of free softwares

  • Who knows anything about music technology/music making computer software? So I basically made a few different iPhone recordings; Voice, two guitar riffs, piano. And I would love to put them all together, I want to make music! Anyone have any idea of safe, preferably free (super broke) music technology software I can download? To mix, add, mess around with different sounds and tracks?

  • What's the best photography camera for beginners? I'm really interested in learning more about photography since I have been taking photos with my iphone. And I was wondering which camera is best for a beginner? Mostly I'm interested taking sunset portraits and the bokeh. And where can I get the lens too?
  • Is ''Iphone'' software only or hardware and software? I've never had an Iphone. I always see it anounced in an absolutely black device, such as this one: http://pective.com/m/iphone-5 I wonder whether, when you're going to buy one, you go to the apple store and buy the whole thing, or look for a Nokia or Sony smartphone and then go to the Apple website and buy and download the software into your device.
