Such as people that use programs like Fruity Loops, Garage Band, Logic Pro, etc.

So how many people actually do this kind of stuff?

I use both Garage Band and Logic Pro 8 myself.

I prefer Logic Pro. It is a really fun program, I recently made a pretty good rap beat and I just have to mix it and it will be done.

I have made some techno like beats or what not, and I also made some reggae.

I actually have FL Studio 8, but I really suck at it. Most of the time I don't know what i'm doing. I haven't really made anything "good" out of it.

I just stick to playing actual instruments and recording them, for now.

Yeah I tried FL as well and I never could figure it out. It is very complex. So is Logic but I figured it out more because it is basically the same thing and set up the same way as Garage Band so I picked it up fairly easy.

Logic Pro 8 is a lot better than FL. I would love to use Logic Pro more but ain't it Apple only?

So meh.....i will have to stick with FL. (might give Reason a go)

I have little musical talent. I attempted GarageBand but what came out was just poor.

Yeah, Logic Pro is only for apple. I use one at school, and I got a crappy iBook G4 myself besides my HP desktop.

But I graduate this year, so I am going to get me a macbook for college [:

and Yeah Garage Band is actually really simple and its very simplistic to tell you the truth.

Just dualboot OS X on your PC if you want to try Logic but don't want to waste money on overpriced hardware, or you could try Ableton Live or Reason which are good too, or so I hear.

MADVILLAIN · Mar 13th 2009, 7:28pm

Yeah, i have heard reason is good.l

ixchrisxi · Mar 13th 2009, 10:08pm

I have heard reason is good as well. I have never tired it myself.

Don't diss the iBook G4. They were kickass in their day

Yeah I know dude, I mean it still runs great.
I mean the one I have only had a 30GB Hard Drive, and like 256mb ram. I am not sure what kind of video card it has.
But I know I can sell it anywhere from 200-350 [:

I've always liked Garageband, I don't really know how to use Logic, but hear that's good as well.

ixchrisxi · Mar 15th 2009, 2:50pm

timmy, you should check it out, once you know how to use it and what not, you will never use garage band again

it's soooooooooo hard

MADVILLAIN · Mar 15th 2009, 8:17pm

key word 'experiment'. With any music software one could be baffled by the amount of options infront of thier eyes(unless its shit). Just look at tutorials if you still find trouble after.

_me_ · Mar 16th 2009, 6:06pm

i tried but its to hard for me i don't have the time to make it

Sweet

Watch out if you're getting the new aluminium Macbook though, they don't have a Firewire port (the white plastic still does though). Not sure if that matters to you.

ixchrisxi · Mar 18th 2009, 12:23pm

I mean I never really used the fireport.
I have one on this desktop computer.

TacticalTurtle · Mar 18th 2009, 3:06pm

I used to use Adobe Audition, but it really sucked so i switched to a new one, called Gold Wave Editor, it does everything you average music maker needs, and it is very system lite

FL Studios 8.
