PUT THAT DICK IN MY MOUTH! 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2009 Byron, are you a Fruitylooper? I've often considered dowloading the demo and dicking around with it, but my computer's a piece of shit and I'm really lazy. Maybe someday...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At Home 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Fruity Loops is not great. If you're looking for a DAW, get Behringer's energyXT 2.5. It's free, and it works pretty goddamned well. I use Logic and Ableton Live myself. Can FL even host vsti's and audio units? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like it because it offers a fuckload of virtual instruments and the piano roll is easy to navigate, unlike GarageBand. I should mention that I don't do any actual recording, just sample sequencing. Of course if you're recording vocals or live instruments FL is not the best choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course if you're recording vocals or live instruments FL is not the best choice. Audio units are indeed a Mac thing. You should check out Ableton Live though, it's the tits, and comes with a shitload of instruments as well. I do a lot of recording, so having that available to me is necessary. That's why I use Logic for most stuff. You might want to check out this website too: createdigitalmusic.com. Good resources there. Do you have any sort of set up, or is it just the computer? http://www.ableton.com/sampler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At Home 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2009 Word. Use what works then. Check out that Ableton sampler video, you can do a lot of cool FM stuff with it. You might want to check out the Korg Nano series. I have the pads and the keys, but I'm selling the pads (my MIDI keyboard has pads on them already). You can do a lot of cool shit with them, and they're not very expensive at all. Try to find a free version of this, too: http://www.sugar-bytes.de/content/products...dex.php?lang=en Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
