Hows it goin guys? So i recently got fruity loops studios 8 and i didnt read any tutorials or whatnot so i didnt make my own sounds, i just used preset sounds. I jumped into the program pretty easily because i played the piano a few years back when i was younger and the concepts carried over very nicely. So i only used the channel window and the pattern window (for those who know what im talking about) Tell me whaty ou think, its my first song. People that heard it that would normally openly tell a friend if it sucked or not actually really liked it. So lemme knwo! =)
Sounds somewhat like acid and sounds like it was made in FruityLoops by an amateur. <---no offense to this comment- just speaking the truth. Keep practicing man, Fruity is not that bad but, it just does sound like you used presets in it, just like you said. You never said what type of music you are trying to produce but, I can tell you it does not sound like trance
lol well of course im an amateur i made that song in like 3 days of 30 minute sessions, but for what it is i thought it was pretty good. i tried making it closer to infected mushrooms psy-trance. but this song basically is a poorly coreographed drawing board of ideas. you dont think for my very minimal knowledge of the program that that was any good?

Hey
The potensiall is there - especially with FL 8, when u got piano skills.
as the whole app is built up on the piano rolls for making beats - melodys - basses, makes it really easy if you know your C5s and D3s etc.
I made this dark psy somewhat elecktro bla bla track the other night,
in FL 8, so before going to another app such as reason or cubase, keep on producing !
GL & have fun!

I wasn't trying to imply that you suck or anything, just saying I could tell you were amateur. Basically, it sounded like something I would've made when I was first starting out. You got ideas, and an idea for timing, unlike some. Its not bad for a beginner, just, when you said you had played piano before I was expecting a little more. Just keep at it, and you will be great!
Processing a highly structured and complex pattern of sensory input as a unified percept of "music" is probably one of the most elaborate features of the human brain.....understanding how music is perceived and how it may elicit intense sensations is far from being understood.
