Question E-Jay "Techno 2"

I've been into trance for a couple years, and recently, I just bought a music creation program called "Techno 2" by E-Jay. I figured it was a simple program and good for amateurs. The music I want to create is somewhere in the genres of hard trance/epic/hi-energy/euro progressive trance/progressive trance.Could someone give me a basic description of the each genre (BPM, distinctive sounds or instruments, etc.)?, so I will have a better idea of how to create the music that I want. Also, how would I create a song from each of these generes using this program? Descriptions of other electronic genres would also be helpful. Thanks, any help will be appreaciated.

Its all up to how you arrange the samples. That will decide which genre..
But man.. eJay?? and the 2 version! This isnt something you will be famed with.. Its a good start though. You learn to arrange a song, not really create cuz all the samples are pre-made. But time will come when you know also how to create samples or sounds, then you can arrange them to your own work.
Consider buying FL Studio when you get bored of Techno eJay 2..

Cheers

PS
Listen to those genres you specified to learn about them..

You know, for all the ejay bashing that goes on, I've never actually used it. All I really know about it is that you're restricted to the provided samples, or something like that, and you can only arrange things, but that's about it.

I think eventually I'd like to buy it, just to see what it's like.

ejay, isn't that just like a loop software? i've never seen it before but from what i've heard it's just based around queing loops that are provided. maybe a fun toy to impress your friends, but i doubt you'd be able to release anything.

Smile Thanks

This information is really helping out, I've been looking for this type of info for a long time.Thank you. I was also wondering, if I were ever to produce anything when I get a more advanced program, when do I have the right to call myself a "DJ"? If I end up never earning the title of "DJ"----of which I would call myself "DJ Cobalt", then how does just "Cobalt87" sound?

well if you can push the play button of a cd player you could call yourself a dj.. though dj infront of your name is overrated imo

its not like britney is gonna call herself 'singer britney' so why should a dj putt in his name what he does.. should be kinda obvious


and wait.. you bought (!) ejay

Wrong.. The samples are royality-free. That means you can do anything with them, except from selling them as samples.

Wrong too.. You can import samples you've created yourself..

Guys. Dont tease this guy. Everyone has to start somewhere. I dont think you would have liked it if someone laughed at you cuz you dont know as much as all the others..

And Cobalt, Good luck.

well buying ejay isn't really a sign of serious intrest..

but you got a point. if you want to mess around with premade ellements etc. go ahead, have fun with ejay. if you want to make it all yourself read the sticks for info on programs etc.
