dont laugh, i havent got the first idea about production, but am quite interested in starting to learn. its me birthday coming up next month, so bearing in mind that im a beginner what programmes do people recommend, that are simple but get good results? ive got windows xp
reason or fruity loops are the best choices for you.
and why would we laugh? we're all here to help :)
alright elle, Ive just started making tunes, I would have to agree with mark on one half there, I think Fruity is the best idea. I'm having loadsa fun with it and prefer it to reason.
PM me
Happy Days!
hey c
i think you'll notice that i edited your message. we've got to be careful now man. 'pm' me is a good way to sort it out :wink:
I have to disagree with Corbzy, I think Reason 2 pisses all over Fruity Loops 1, 2, 3 etc and Reason 2.5 is out now with added features.
no worries mark, tryed to be as discreet as poss mate.
mike heath : i didnt say it was better, just i find it better and recommend it to elle.
Elle I'm in the same boat as you, I've only recently started messing around with Fruity. The tutorials on it are wicked you can more or less teach yourself.
Ive only just started aswell, TA do you know any good tutorials for melodys?
buy a good chord book from a book shop.... learn chords and then you'll be really good at melodies.
Piano Roll is good for melodies, send the sound in your channel to Piano Roll and its pretty much straightforward from there, its like a composer.
I can C a new thread comin' up
Reason vs Fruity...
I don't wish 2 start any flames...
But I would take fruity over Reason anyday... WHY...
Just the fact that u can still use all yer favourity VSTi/ DXi/ VST Plug Ins/ Dx Plug Ins with it... :)
Also I find very annoying all the major clicks and drags I have do 2 4 a simple think in Reason...
I think Reason is a big beats and has a lot 2 show 4... fruity loops simpler, but is it really....!?!?! I THINK NOT!!
Anyways, it's the "ends" that counts not the "means"..
Again no wish 2 start a war, I just think many people don't really dig deep with fruity thus getting a wrong idea!

Cheers 4 that info mark :D maybe i can get good at that aswell now.Quote:

FL Studio definately pisses over reason!
There's a book called "1000 Keyboard Tips" which I can recommend strongly enough ...
