It's interesting you mention it Alfi. When I was around 10-12 or something I used download.com and looked for different music making freeware and found the FL Studio demo. This would have been around 2000-2001. It was a low number 1,2,3 or something. In the demo you couldn't save, but you could export to MP3 whatever you could get done in one session.


haha download.com.. Old skoooool... I don't remember if that's where I got my first demo of Fruity Loops from, but I do know that in january 2001 came version 3.0 out. It had a piano roll and I came hard in my barely legal pants.

That sounds A LOT better than my first tracks... But that's probably because I tried to make trance. My 3rd or 4th track was some really, really hard techno. The riff was insane, but the samples sounded like lol... Man I'm gonna see if I can find the project file and blow some dust off of it. It was also the first track I made (and saved) that featured vocals. "Okay, ROLL the drums" BAUM BAUM BAUM BAUM DUT DUT DUT

Well, this was my best one and one of the few that is finished. I am listening through my old tracks right now and most of them peak, have tons of reverb on the master and are a lot worse than this.

Honestly, any song that goes: "Okay, ROLL the drums" BAUM BAUM BAUM BAUM DUT DUT DUT" has to be kind of awesome. I hope you find it.

Haha I remember the first time I used reverb. On errything.
haha, and the first time I used a compressor loooool. Whenever the kick stopped thumping for a second the rest of the track would sound about 4 or 5 times louder. It was insane, I tell you!

Happy birthday, man!

Yea, I found one of my tracks that did that with the compressor. The kick was side-chaining everything else but only because it was peaking so much. I hadn't even tied anything to the kick.

Oh man, tutorials haha! That wasn't something that existed on the internet when I started out. And samples? Hah!! I remember looking for hours and hours on end, hooked up with my ty 28.8k dialup modem, finding like these crappy 4 bit samples, that kiiiiinda sounded like what you were looking for.. Man, the first FL I used didn't even have the ts404 :stongue: so I was making weeeeeeiiird remixes 666 - Amokk, where I used a bee sound. It was cool.


where are you from. Broadband was pretty much universal in 2000. Or did you start when you were really young. I never bothered with DAW as anything but a sequencer until 2002. I remember buying the UAD cards first generation when you had to take care of delay compensation. I must of been like one of 10 people in Canada to have those cards.

I remember in 2000 that there was no help anywhere. No sample cds aimed at dance and you pretty much had to figure it all out on your own.

And i used to have a yamaha sampler the A5000. 4 mb of ram. About 40 seconds in mono. Nice. Side chaining didn't exist well it did but who had that kind of money. I had 1 buss compressor, a TC delay and a lexicon reverb.

Not quite. I remember living in Toronto in 2001 and Broadband was a very new and expensive thing - I was still on a dial up (as a starving student). In London in 2000 you did have broadband but again it was pretty damn expensive - Cable TV was in it's infancy (analogue only) and cable london (now Virgin Media) had only about 10% of the uk covered in terms of cable infrastructure. Now it's probably 80% (and the other 20% is remote places like farms in the Hebrides).
