first thing you will nead is a good computer that has Pentium 3 550 at least, 128Mb of Ram, and a simple sound card but not too simple.
now i think that you need to get 2 music tools, 1 for production and 1 for editing Wavs.
for the production i will recomend you to start on Fruity Loops V.3.3 or other version you got. for editing wavs i will recomend you Sound Forge V.5.
you also will need to get simple speakers but not computer speakers and a stereo amplifier.
and maybe i will add a good headphones.
plus Heater for the cold days ;) and a good ventilator for the summer ;)
If you can get that i think, imo, that you are ready for starting your jurney into trance music production.
Goodluck :)

k , what the f*** your problem with fruity loops? believe me if you got a good souncard and a good monitors you can make whatever you want. how about making a track on fuity then mixing up in cubase? there are many ways to handle the sound problem
anyway ace - start with fuity and some vst instruments,dont listen to anybody who says things like "k" said and make your music just learn,learn and learn and... with time to come you will pay more attention to sound and you will know then how to make a good sound that's all all about sitting down and learning |

about the laptop, well you can make music with it, but i know that further on you will need a large 17" screen for making your life easier :)
about s.card, you can get into other threads that has opened, there are exellent reviews...

Leo totally right
and girlfriend is not a problem !!! think about her too
don't make music more than 5 hour per day and you will have time for all the rest more u will be more creative
my suggestion : find out what is your software ?
find good sequencer for you ( fruity loops , logic or cubase ) and start to learn the shit listen to other ppl work , find your style ( work on other styles too it will teach you a lot , chill out 4 example ) ask us and we will help you coz there are ppl that workin with every soft
about Pc : strongest as u can i have AMD 1600 athlon , 256 SDRAM , Creative Live and Loudspeakers+AKAI reciever(magber k*s emo ars ) and it's enought but P III will be too when you will be more proffecional you will buy better gear
Jason and Leo - know well Fruity Loops 4 example
and K - is some guy that talkin a lot of shit about fruity but he is not pro musician so you can **** *** **** if you want of couse !
ask me if you want ! , w
here do you live ? ( i'm israel , Haifa ) if you close enought to haifa we can meet each other and i will teach you fruity's and sound forge's basics
good luck ACE i wish you to be an ACE in Electronic music |
