yeah, i'm 15, and i've recently had the sudden interest in making music(softare/hardware) and i really don't know where to start. hardware or software? both? for software, i have reason and fruity loops but i have no clue how to use them comfortably. i was wondering if anyone on this board could help me out with anything. thanks.

dont invest in hardware YET... (unless u need it..) software will allow for huge possibilities for now.. (plus its free)
but soon enough u might find fruityloops limiting..

yes i make ch00ns, when i have time and will that is.. argh [school]
but i suggest checking out impulse tracker or modplug tracker. trackers are fun as hell but will take some time to figure out. just keep hacking away and you'll get it bit by bit.

i've only really made 1 song and i only used fruity loops and a program that makes computer voices. I suggest using goldwav to make interesting drum sounds and adding cool effects!

my music is pretty much all sample based, i generate sounds too, but you will most likely need a good sound wav editor.. soundforge is the greatest hands down. look on mirc and soulseek for this shit

use which program, sound forge? just play with it, record some crap, sample some cds, play with fx, pitch, normalize, reverb, etc..
on mirc well hmm, you just gotta know the right people .. most is kinda hard to find unless you got the hookups, soulseek might help

i use modplug tracker. You put wav files into little rows and columns and time progresses down through the rows, you can change the amount of rows in a "pattern" put in effects etc. make the wavs be in certain keys etc. I think reason is probably better but havn't used it.
