Fruity Loops and other music programs..

[Hero.Skye]

Just wondering if anyone here uses FL Studio to make their own music, or any other music producing program. If so, let the kind hearted people on fnk know what you can do and what programs you're into. w00t!

Reason
Rebirth
Recycle

reason.
logic.
ive played with rebirth too but theres no osx version yet.

reason is awesomesexy.

Downside of Reason... No VSTs

Plus Side... Sounds Awesome.

I'm still fighting with Subtractor (the analog synth) for a good garage bass tho.

[ryantron]

i always use the malstrom. it sounds warmer and prettier.

[Hero.Skye]

im using Fruity Loops and Acid pro right now, anyone here know any good tutorial pages for Acid Pro? im also looking into trying out a new program, any suggestions?

[ryantron]

REASON!

or if its scary and confusing, use arturia storm and work your way up to reason.

storm is basically a very simple reason.

[Hero.Skye]

ya? any tutorial pages for Reason then? :)

[ryantron]

www.reasonstation.com

the best place to learn is the manual that comes with it.

the sequencer is the hardest part. once you get that, you can do anything.

[Hero.Skye]

wicked stuff, except www.reasonstation.com doesn't work my main man. :P

[ryantron]

maybe its reasonstation.net

[Hero.Skye]

niiice , thanks bro, ill get on the download asap.

[ryantron]

eew. reason is a bitch to download.

there are three iso files that you NEED.

thats like 1.5gbs of waiting.

i downloaded the first, decided it wasnt worth it, and bought it.

[ppcock]

should've asked me.

I got 3 reason 2.5 discs and like 6 sound bank discs.

Reason is not that big.

[ty:rone]

anyone heard of qbase?

[sh4un]

I use either FLStudio or Cubase SX
i tend to use fruity a lil more cus its more ram friendly for me
some people mite tell u fruity sucks but it really is an awesome program. Its not the program that determines how good ur music will sound its wat u do with it, so find some good vst's to use. some i use are, junglist, albino 2, pro 53, waves blah blah blah

another one to look @ wood be logic

[Séguin]

the only reason I would step to Cubase is for profesionalism. I've been producing for half a decade and am coming close to starting my own label.

A friend of mine suggests exporting my tracks as all wav files and remastering them in Cubase.

Where can I find info on Logic?

[ebbomega]

Has nobody ever heard of Google?

[Séguin]

dude... if I type in "Logic" on google... I'm pretty sure I'll find everything but what I'm looking for... too generic a word. Plus I'm fukken lazy.

[sh4un]

heres a review on it http://www.tweakheadz.com/review_of_logic_5.htm
i just googled that. . .

Qbase is more of a mastering program, then a loop cycle.

Fruityloops is a little too simple I find, and you can design very slim beats.

Reason is by far the best beat making program I've worked with, but if you have a mac, Garageband and Soundtrack are too amazing pieces of software.

Clearly you did not use it to it's full potential.

I could show you ALOT of shit you can do with it that you probably don't know about.

This was made using strictaly Fruityloops. If can do alot more then the eye can see. Guitar part was done on my actual guitar though.
