Music editing program?

[GodSquad]

Ive had a couple like WAVEPAD and FL, but i want a program that will break the layers up into instruments.
I need to turn up the steel drum in Promiscuous Girl. Apparently Itunes doesn't register it very well and i can't hear it at all. A friend of mine said FL can do this, but I've had trouble finding out how -.-

Yeah i could do with something like that

cakewalk will do job mayte

Yeh i was looking at that ages ago, but which one would i use for editing music and which one for creating music?

What, you want to higher a certain instrument in a song? You mean in an mp3? The only way to do that is to play around with the equalizer. There is no program that can break up a song into layers. It's like asking for a program that can break up a JPG file into PSD layers.
Or did I misunderstand the question? :P

Spikee: Cakewalk is old, no one uses it anymore. The manufacturer has released a newer software called Sonar.

BlackOut: Cubase SX3 or Logic. They are both the standard for professionals. I use Cubase SX 2.02, which works just as fine as the latest version.

Yeah my bro has been using Cubase for years, but i cant find any trials or anything and I dont want to use torrents becausemy router is gay.

Ill see if my bro has any CDs.

my friends (who thankfully aren't pirates) use audacity, which is pretty crude. At school though, we use audition.

Yea i mean like in an mp3.
i dont want it to physically break it up, but i want it to allow me to raise the volume of just that one component.
