Alright, I just...uhm, "bought" a copy of FruityLoops 3.5, and I'm finally giving it a fair chance. So far, I must say, this program is just what everyone (who likes it) has said: amazing program. Now that I've actually gone through the manual and all that, it's quite easy to set up songs and get started. Plus, it sounds so much better than Tuareg or even ReBirth. I definitely dig this program.
I was so wrong about it!
*hangs head in shame*

Yes - with the right plug-ins correctly used, Fruityloops can be very slick - especially with the correct usage of Compression, EQ, and Reverb/Delay.
Plus, since it recognises VST synths, and Trackers, it's doubly useful. Soulseek is a great source for VST synths - I myself have got Absynth, Juno X2, FM7, FM heaven, some muon stuff and lots more from there

I made my first FruityLoops-based song. It's just over 2 minutes in length, so it's short, but I'm still learning the program. I'll post a link to it later today.

short is good - too many people feel obliged to make 7 minute tracks that change very little... a 2 minute track with good ideas/dynamics is far better than an 8 minute track with one idea looped 32 times...

It normally crashes my computer if I try it. I can import a MIDI file in no problem though.

Well at first it was a nice junglesque beat -- but finally it got boring... just about saved by the dubby ending -- but I just now fast forwarded it a minute and a half on winamp and I didn't realise since there was no difference... a track should evolve not run rings around itself...
But like you said, your first track - good work.
6.5/10

I 'programmed' all the rhythms myself.
and to Kozmik: well hey, without criticism, things can't grow or change. so i appreciate that feedback as well.

Fruityloops is well underestimated! Ive produced some mint tracks with it and i cant tell the differnce between floops and some other over priced sequencer package! Get ya self a shit load of Plug-ins and it stands out from the rest!

I thought the track was quite interesting. And it's nice to see someone hasn't underestimated the Casio VLT-1!

No matter how hard I try I can't get the hang of this program. I find it confusing, and difficult to make anything quality.

My best advice would just be to read through the manual(s) and tutorial(s) it comes with. Those can really help a lot, and if you follow through the step-by-step tutorial, you'll really get the hang of how to do what and where.
