Music Programs for Electronic music.Need suggestions

Here is a low quality mp3 of it.Still unfinished though

I didnt know you could still post zips. Bad ass. Ill have to check this shit out.

Not too bad considering you just really started getting into it. I guess id have to hear the high quality finished version but id definately say that you have improved greatly in the little time you started working on FL.

I dont know what everybody else would say but if i remember correctly, you didnt really know how to use it well a few days back.

One suggestion that i have off the top of my head is clean up and tweak the drum kits. Very bland right now.

Damn. I know most of you probably arent interested but i just went through a lot of my cousin and I\'s old stuff and some of the semi new stuff and we were pretty good. I have to get back into making music bad. Its been almost a year. Sad really. Ill try and test out my magic next week. Im going out of town tomorrow.

Well here is a bit of our more Rap oriented stuff. We go all across the board in terms of genres but i just happened to see this one and its not too big. Its a bit repettitive because its not the finished version (where that is i dont know) and it was meant for a background. The most recent version has more crisp gunshots and it sounds like a flatline after the shots. Pretty kool shit.

Hopefully this works.

EDIT: Damnit its a bit too big. (1.05megs) : (

Yeah I couldnt do almost a thing previously.I dont even understand how I managed to improve so greatly in such a small period of time.It just came smoothly.I woke up one morning with inspiration and voila.
I still need work though.

You are right about the drum kits.I am still very very weak in that part.

btw:Try lowering the quality even more if you can.I think it will make it small enough to post it

Is there a way I can use an effect only for a specific pattern?I am trying to use a few for specific patterns only but it uses the whole effect to the whole thing instead of the pattern only

well there are special ways of organizing your crap but to keep it simple, just use multiples of the same sound channel and tweak them differently. Its the easiest and most basic way for you art the moment.

Shit. I forgot to send Chizz my songs. I guess ill do that now

But thats what I do.For example I create pattern1 that plays a specific part with one specific instrument and then I click on the FX shortact to add the effects I want to that pattern.But all the patterns for example 2,3,4,5 etc use the effects I added on pattern1
I just want only pattern1 to use them.
I have this problem with effects like Fruity Chorus and Fruity 7 Band EQ

And harry up with those songs

Oh i think i see your probelm. All your instruments or w/e are all on the same effect number. When you put fx on. Make sure you dont put them on master or 1. Start on like 2 or 3 and then make the instrument you want to have that effect on, the same number as the effect. Ill try and post a pic if the description doesnt help.

Oh. and just pm me your email and ill send the song i couldnt send.

I dont know if this is what your exact problem is but i drew this up so maybe it could help you. EDIT: Damn. I spelled Channel wrong. lol

thanks That will do I believe
I ll check it out.

Because of this thread, I am now running Reason 2.5, and I bought a couple of books on it to get myself up to speed.  I\'m planning to purchase a Roland GI-20 and GK-2AH MIDI guitar pickup, install it in my Stratocaster, and use it as an input device.  I am a guitar player, so I\'m pretty sure using a keyboard to perform music would drive me crazy.  

What I\'m planning to do is build up some drum and bass tracks using Reason, then perform some harmonies using the MIDI guitar, and assign them to a synth or whatever.  Then I eventually want to be able to play back the Reason sound file and record a live guitar track over the top of it using a digital audio recording program that interfaces with Reason using ReWire.

I was planning to use Adobe Audition 1.5 as the recording program, but that sort of fell through.  I might still invest in it, but I\'m thinking it might be overkill.  Do any of you have a preference on a good audio recording & mixing program that is ReWire compatible?

Glad to hear you have this marvelous program!I see you are very serious about it


Unfortunately I dont know much about recording.Probably Lord Nicon might.

In the meantime since this thread is active again I ll post another sample

I remade a part of Rhythm is a Dancer in Fruity Loops

Not as good as the original but its better than nothing

Heh, that\'s kinda cool Unicron.  Mega techno; even more than the real song, I think.    I saved it in my ITunes folder and added your name as "artist" in the ID3 tag.

I reckon most of these programs like  Reason, Fruity Loops, and others really work best when building up techno / electronic music like this.  Therefore, I think I\'m going to be stretching things by using it for the kind of progressive rock music I have in mind.  

Oh well, we\'ll see how it goes.

Thats probably one of the best compliments I ever got

Its true that these programs are developed mostly with electronic music in mind judging from what I ve heard so far from other people\'s work.But they do a pretty good job for other genres too (especially from Reason I believe since its a more proffesional and quality program) .Also judging from Chemical Brothers and Prodigy that had rock characteristics in some of their music  I am pretty confident you will achieve what you are looking for since you are a guitar player and you know about music
