Hello,

I'm trying to start productin music, but i've no previous experience. I've been messing about with frutyloops and Qbasis..

anyone got any advice on where to start?? for a complete beginner??

cheers,
Dave

for starting out, i`d say keep playing around with fruity, or u could try and begin with an other program (ie. reason or cubase)
just figure out which program u like the most.
anyways, keep practising alot, thats the most important thing to do!

i agree with that.
i fool around with fruityloops a lot at the beginning, its a very practicall program if you now how to use vst very well.

now i´m using acidpro4, its not a pro sequencer program but its better than fruity, my editions are with cooleditpro2.
I´m using this cuz i have no keyboard pops,, fruity its great to begin with, keep using it bro...

Download a VSTi like NI Pro-53 and learn how to design good sounds, I would also learn the basics of musical theory like chords and scales, this is also quit important.

Thanks to all who replied - a great help.

i'll continue to master fruity for the time beein

i had a look for that NI Pro-53. it costs a staggering €199.

although illegal.. is ther anywhere i could download it.. for free??
anywhre you can get the full version of fruity?

i'm an unemployed student

if anyone has both.. perhaps copy on to a cd, and then i could send you €10 for the expence ??

well, the thing is, i'm havin a lot of trouble with my modem at home, i very seldom get a connection (hardware compatability problems). and when i do get online, i'm usually disconnected within 20 mins.

I'm at college now, and we're not allowed to download stuff off the net, so i'm in a spot of bother

what if i made it €15 ??
whatever you want yourself.

Dave

ahh, its like that
well, it hasn`t anything 2 do about the money.. €10,- is fine for me.. but i just don`t like sending stuff etc. sorry.. if u want 2 try msn i can send it thru that if u like
