software closest to industry standard
i'm using reason right now. i'm kinda bored of it, is there anything better?
Isn't really an Industry standard as such. It all boils down to personal choice, but Cubase and Logic seem to be the more popular.
Just as with programming a computer, the software you use doesn't matter.. it's what you do with the program. You can get a pro sound out of any program.. Logic, ACID, FruityLoops, Reason.. which ever you are most comfortable with is what you should use.

If you can't make a good track in reason , than using something abit higher end like logic or cubase won't fix that. I say, when you can make a pro sounding track in reason than it makes sense to switch to something more professional like logic or cubase because they have better sound quality, more features, and vst compatibility. I've heard some killer tracks done in reason. Mind you, the only shitty thing about reason is lack of vst support, but when rewiring to cubase, all that is quickly solved. Problem with making trance music is not the creativity part, it only takes a split second to come up with a killer melody, the bitch is making that melody work in a mix with all the rest.
As someone else mentioned, its all personal preference. Download some trials and see what you are most comfortable with.
try FASTTRACKER 
its totally oldschool!

Use any MIDI composition program of choice (Cakewalk, Cubase, etc.) and use it to run a bunch of borrowed/rented hardware synths. Record the results as .wav tracks.

help
I thought I'd throw in a quick fruity question considering you guys seem to know you're sh*t!! I used Fruity with the WASP and Symsynth plug ins, but I find that when I play my track, the plug ins seem to fall behing in tempo in compared to the main beat, and after about 4 or 5 bars, it sounds like sh*t cause it's not in sync anymore.. anyone have any clue why?? is my CPU not powerful enough or something??

I guess what I'm asking is, is there a way to speed up plug ins like wasp, or symsynth?? when I hit play on my track, after 4 or 5 bars, the plug ins are not in line with the main beat anymore, they aren't keeping up with the main beat... it starts to sounds like if you had 2 records playing, and one had a slightly slower pitch, you'd start to hear that the slower pitchted records was falling behing.. that's exactly what it sounds like....
Dont use wasp or simsynth they are plane shitty try to get some vsti's to do your work
really... I'll take that advice for sure, but where can I get VSTI's??? they are basically plugin's for fruity just like wasp is right??
WASP and Simsynth are just novelty plugins designed for FL by Image Line. They are the definition of worthless.
VST's are professional grade plugins designed by specialist companies. Good ones are Pro 53, Albino, FM7, and V-Station.
