Fruityloops is for people who don't want to make music which is good in any way.

Everybody thinks that they are really hot shit but I bet there's 10 people on this messageboard making better tunes with Fruityloops and Reason for every one who talks shit about the programs. He asked for the best music SOFTWARE, maybe because he can't afford real equipment yet, or that's how he wants to start out or whatever.
RDJ uses Recycle and he makes REAL good tunes.
Its about how the program/equipment is utilized not how respected it is in the community or how much it costs.

Oh, and in answer to your question:
MTV Music Generator is the best music software out there, as everyone knows.

Software isn't that cool. You can only go so far. With the shit that you buy. Remember, RDJ made or modified his programs.

fuck that. what you use for making tunes doesn't have to matter along as you are talented & creative. Doesn't Aphex use strictly computers now? read the interviews, he praises the use of audio software. You could have all the equipment in the world and that wouldn't change how creative you are.

Ah .. mind you - this was predominantly because of the interface .. not the actual functionality of programmes such as Cubase and Logic Audio ... as far as I know, RDJ was more concerned with the restrictive interface of esp. Cubase, which already sets one in a frame of mind, and thus limits/restricts 100% creativity ? Software is becoming increasingly powerful - and on the whole there is the advantage of it being a lot cheaper. Sure, hardware compressers and the like WILL be better, but starting off might be a bit of an overkill - or so I think anyway ...

Plenty of people make music with fruityloops, and it still sounds good, for example orangedust... I use it every now and then, but it's hard to get used to after using fasttracker for so long (about 5 years now) and nothing works good on my pc so I cant use TS404, effects, etc... plus I only have the shareware version...

hmmm.... goot... goot.... speak lil monkey people!!! um... yah... i can NOT afford scads of hardware.... software is free... (untill you can afford to buy it)...
What i was actually curious about was do most people like to drop stuff into soft-sequencers like logic ? What's everybody's preferred interface ? I learned midi and audio sequencing on a mac using Opcode Vision *crys like a little bitch at the demise of the once-noble software* and i just got a pc fast enough to run real software....
fruitloopers is a'ight... cept you can't really write stuff in it... just loop samples... and the steady bpm feature sorta sucks doody....
*giggles at the massive amount of responces*
must go masturbate over alllll this nubby input....
groove.

don't much about logic, but i use cubase and it's a bitch to learn, but the best soft seq. i've ever used. so i prefer hardware, cuz i need the knobs triggers and faders, if you work only on the pc's, you would be a perfectonist....so on live events, hardware is the shit !
bad english i know

Cool edit pro, Soundforge, Wavelab are all excellent packages, you can go on editing/sampling till you grow a big grey beard and die!
Cubase does have some nice EQs (if you wanna replace having mixing desk)
Having hardware is always a bonus, especially for real time knob twidling in particular for live situations.
For making your first trax, and producing them with in an each of their lives, computers kick ass.
Rock on.

Oh and steady bpm in fruityloops?
have you tryed right clicking on the bpm counter and editing "Events". that would shut your mouth! all knobs in fruity can be timed .... just so you know.

Does anyone remember Henry Cosh Accompaniest on the Atari ST? It was the most deranged sequencer ever, it didn't do what you asked, it puts things in random order, and it generally fucked with your head... but it was brilliant. If anyone has an ST out there, download it off the web, it's a right laugh.
