Hi there  
Anybody online make their own music or play around with remixing other tracks?
If so tell me what you use and your favourite genres to experiment with, I managed to get this forum suggestion in last night so I might as well make an effort to keep it online!
Even if you dont make computer music, anyone out there a whizz on the synthesizer? any people working in studios?
Don't be shy :D

I'm not into much house but I'll check that page out when Im out of myspace banning college haha.
Computer music as in songs made in logic, reason, ableton, cubase, renoise etc etc
even anybody who makes 8 bit music out there or anyone into Max/MSP come join in :)

I believe they're called producers.  LOL.  And a lot of cats I know use reason, but that's some expensive shit.


-- Posted by chuckibladez at 4:03 am on Dec. 17, 2008

producers, computer musicians, same thing :D
Reason is quite cheap for it's ability, and the GUI is damn impressive!
Anybody used trackers?

It's pretty simple. I just use it like I use any other MIDI plugin.

I can use Massive and Battery but with Absynth i load up a preset and can't really find anyway to manipulate the sound any further except for the LFO's and Wave attributes part.
