Just picked up a MIDI controller

Anyone got any good software to make music with this thing? I have no idea what I'm doing.

 

[BenDovid]

Whatever you do, please don't write songs relating to this board. I heard a clip of something called "The Joseph Lane" and got the douchiest of chills thinking about how somebody sat down and spent time recording that.

FL studio for rap beats and learning DAWS, Ableton for more diverse music and in the middle learning wise, Protools is the final step once you’ve learned everything

Where do I get any or all of those for free?

 

[RoxburyRick]

Audiomulch for making loops with samples

Piratebay. Just search “Ableton 11 Suite” and you’ll find some good torrents. Downloading is pretty simple and most of them should come with a little notes app explaining how to crack it. I’ve been using a pirated version of Ableton for about 6 years and I haven’t noticed any differences in features, recording etc from the non-torrent version.

Solid. I'll give FL Studio and Ableton a try.

If you don't wanna pirate it LMMS is supposed to be good but has a steeper learning curve than FL studios or ableton. Ableton is great though

 

[Coonskin]

Can you elaborate? It is a keyboard or launchpad?

 

[1073waaf]

Ableton Live. Also if you get really serious into it, look into getting Omnisphere. It’s expensive but it’s the most powerful software synth on the market imo.

Launchpad

 

[Slackjawed Cow]

When I used to fuck around making beats Id use Abelton.

 

[Nick Gerlips]

Use reaper if you want a free daw that is actually usable without having to pirate

 

[IanHalperin]

You MILLENNIAL LIBTARDS and your TECHNOLOGY!
All I need us my DIGITECH LOOPER and my container of BLACK RIFLE COFFEE and I'm set!!

 

[AntSucks]

Reaper is free and very good. You can do basically anything in it. Get a couple of good free synths like "Synth One", which has hundreds of packs and you will be producing in no time.

 

[Smeckler's Powder]

Logic works great for me

Steal Fruity Loops. It's a blast.

 

[despacito69]

Looper? DIGITECH LOOPER?

 

[Turk February]

Seriously once you learn the arpeggiator and gating you'll realize just how insanely easy certain types of electronic music are.
