What next after beat is done on MPC2000XL?!

Started making beats again on my MPC2000XL…

Sadly I stopped back in the day because of my lack of knowledge on what to do after I’m finished with the beat… I never was taught or understood Daw,midi etc. which is what I would need to master and send off to potential artists/rappers right?! ‍♂️

Basically I need to know what basic software I need and how to use it?
Any advice would be appreciated but I am willing to pay for a few zoom lessons or in person would be better (I’m in eastbay California,I can travel possibly too)

Once again: I can make the whole beat on the mpc,I want to know how to properly mix/master the beat using software and then how to send it off to people who want to buy my beats

Even something basic & free like Audacity is enough to get a beat recorded as a digital file you can upload - provided you have a computer & an audio interface.
