anybody make digital music?

[dmmh]

I am delving into making electronic music.
Trust me, it's fuckin hard to understand....

sofar I am using Logic Studio Pro 9, Native Instruments Kontakt 4, Native Instruments Battery 3, Native Instruments FM8, Native Instruments Absynth 5. Anybody got some more good tips for good software synths/ drumcomputer plugins?

Hmm hmmm.. i only know FL Studio but it isn't free.. (only demo is free)

[dmmh]

everything is free on the interweb

[natirips]

Unlike FL, LMMS is free. Although it's called Linux MultiMedia Studio it works on Windoze and Mac OS X as well.

It's functionality is somewhat close to that of Reason, from my experience, although it's not THAT simple to use.

All you need is Reason!

I don't like FL personaly with all its VST's.




Watch this vid @ Youtube (new Window)

nice, but reason is NOT all you need, there's a distinct difference between just using Reason and using VSTi plugin's as seperate synths, drum computers etc

listen to the insanine quality difference when you listen to say Morphesta's Sample Logic

Reason is nice for making quick tunes I guess, but when it comes to making your own sounds, you can't beat using a DAW and plugins

PS: I already picked my DAW, so thanks for the FL and LMMS tips, but I am looking more for interesting tutorials, plugins etc

nice vid in there for who likes electronic music

[havoc]

what kind of music you want to do m8?
i have lots of experience btw

[wurst]

can u guys make something like a techno hymn against cheaters?

electronic music is btw an enrichment for music itself, everyone can have more then an orchestra.
i know propellerhead reason from my old flat mate some years ago.
what i didnt like in that program was the user interface (that tried to like something from metal)
