You both present wonderful electronic based music from time to time that you've made. What does thou use to make such things? I want to try my hand at some jazz rock eletronica fusion stuff.
I use Fruity Loops 8, but I've moved up to Nexus 2.
Fruity Loops is fantastic though. They have so many tutorials and stuff online, you can download sound packs, or you can make your own. It has something called
"Syntrax" which is a plugin you load up and it's a virtual keyboard with a zillion nobs.
Turning the nob will make it sound different, and it has a bunch of different instrument presets attached to it.
Piano, Sax, guitar, etc. (Yes, they even have a virtual metal guitar with nobs to adjust the tuning, amp sound, etc.)
When you get the sound you want, you put it on a thing called "Pianoroll" and adjust the pitches at the certain times.
It's 110% customizable, bro.
Also any suggestions as far as things to check out or look at as far as getting started?
Experiment with preset sounds, bro. Then Check out a bunch of "how to use" tutorials and it just takes some practice to get used to, then it'll become a 2nd language to you in no time.
