Creating one’s own unique audio mixes can be quite enjoyable. Fortunately, no one has to spend money to get good audio mixing software. Here are some examples of audio mixing software that are available for download at no charge.

Audacity

Audacity is a good audio mixing software package for anyone who does not know much about audio mixing. While the software is reputed to be for professional mixing, the screens that allow users to manipulate the audio files on hand are easy to follow and even allow them to try various techniques such as adjusting the volume, fading in and out, combining sections from two or more music tracks, and avoiding problems with source files. This can be used to create some great mixes that can then be loaded onto an MP3 player. Audacity can be found on sourceforge.

Ultramixer

The UltraMixer Free Edition allows users to mix music from a variety of formats such as MP3, WMA, OGG, WAV, or even from CDs the user has loaded and plays real time. No particular operating system is required to run UltraMixer, just an up to date sound card. This free software is great for starting a side business as a party disc jockey or just for making some interesting mixes for a get together at home. Download the Ultramixer Free Edition here.
