Music Software Question

[JMW]

Is there any software that makes it easy (relatively speaking) to put a beat behind a song?

I'm rec league, and I use Audacity to mix our music. I can do pretty much everything I need to (for rec league), but it would open up my song options so much if I could add a beat. I know it can be done in Audacity, but it isn't easy. I'd be willing to invest in other software, but only if it makes the process easier. I don't want to buy it and then find out that it's not any easier.

Any suggestions or feedback?

(I use a Mac, and I don't think Sony Acid is available for a Mac.)

Does anybody have any advice (or can you tag someone who might be able to help?)

Look into Adobe Audition.

I've heard great things about Sony Acid Pro 7.

Look into Adobe Audition.

Thanks @Andre - I did look into it, and even found a tutorial on how to do beat-matching and it does sound pretty easy. AND - bonus - there's a free trial. Thanks for the suggestion! I'm going to try it out.

@ OWECheer - thanks for the suggestion - unfortunately, I don't think it is available for Mac. I appreciate the response though!

No problem. Fruity Loops is also good for track construction.
