Like that mint book on 'How to DJ' that is the supposed bible of dj'ing. Are there any on production? :conf:

Just a book on everything from the basics to the more advanced stuff :)

Oh like the one you get when you buy the software ? :haha:

The most annoying remark ever, hehe.

Ok, serious mode now. Look in the tutorial you get (also with the cracked version) its a huge tutorial but if you read it in sections your dancing baby !

Serously, the best thing to do is get all angry and just twist everything, and see what happens, i recall making my first tunes this way, youll soon get the grips of it, but dont stop canning it or youll get nowere.

There are millions of books on production - finding the right one can be hard. I recommmend:

Paul White: Creative Recording Techniques 1: Effects and Processors

Paul White is the editor of Sound on Sound and knows his stuff! This book took me from novice level to being able to talk high-brow techniques with professionals. :D

Also, Modern Recording Techniques by David Miles Huber, Robert E. Runstein gives a good grounding in sound theory, studio design (this IS important!) and a load of other stuff that'll come in handy later.

None of this will help you synthesize sounds and make beats though. There are good books on using Reason - the manual is pretty poor if you don't know how to handle kit. I'll find out for ya - a friend got one he was well happy with. Remind me by PM if it takes more than a day.

Also, I give lessons if you live in London. Very reasonable rates and results guaranteed! (Along with lots of handy samples...)

:happy2:
