| Always drink at least six shots of whiskey immediately before producing, and three or four shots for each hour after that. This will loosen you up and allow you to express yourself like a true artist. |

Be prepared to put in a lot of time and effort.
Also try reading lots of posts from this forum. There's some great guys on here who know there . If you get stuck, search the forum.
You will get better results rather than "how do I use this or how do I use that" Experiment, that's the key to success
People learn at different rates so don't expert to learn how to produce overnight. It's not going to happen friend
Hope this helps, good luck and have fun. |

| obviously do what they said, but id definatly get a midi keyboard if your serious even before trying out demos, helps alot to get a feel of the software your trying, playing notes with mouse is dire! |

Check out some free tools first and if it's fun and you want to learn more think about investing in some more equipment and learn some music theory and production techniques.
some free stuff to start with
sequencer = reaper (there will be others but dont know myself)
audio editor = wavosaurus
synths = synth1, audjoo helix, tal uno, tal bassline, zebra cm
sampler = shortcircuit
Beatslicer = H4xx0r:
