Guest Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I use Reason most of the time, I find it much easier to get what I want quickly and that kind of keeps the ideas flowing. It's possible to get some really good stuff with it. That said, it's mixing engine isn't a patch on the Cubase or Logic one, so once I've written a track, I'll export all the channels as wavs, including whatever effects, and stick them in Cubase to mix and pan them, and add any VSTi's I need. I find cubase hammers my CPU , and I can't rack up anywhere nearly as many instruments as I can in Reason (I've had 25 + synths/samplers going in Reason before ), but my computer falls over with 10 or more VSTis in cubase which I find restrictive..... Albino 2 Rules!!!! Also, Kontakt is quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 This is The Prophet - I have been making Psy for a while and have come through Fruity loops and Reason. I'm now using Cubase SE but I'm not getting the sound I want. I have a vst synth called Yellow Jacket as well as too many fx. What is the best way to get a psy base? What order do I use fx (compressor-eq-expander-....) Is the synth crap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeros Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Dude, the best thing is to follow your heart!! Indeed, thats the best advice Use whatever you're most comfortable with and most interested in, good music isn't up to the program to make, its up to you And for those doubting FL, this track and all subsequent tracks of that project (working on 2 right now) are produced entirely in FL. What is the best way to get a psy baseMuon Tau and some EQ works wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alleycat Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 I use Renoise tracker, Ive been using trackers since Impulse, I love it, it can do more than I ever dreamed a tracker could do. a bit awkward if youve never used a tracker. Ive managed to get a good bass from Steinbergs Neon, with compression, filter, eq, sometimes an expander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A really really good job on Fruity Now tell me Did you use one of the Fruity generators to creat this track (Like TS404 and 3x osc for ex) or did you made it on hardwares or VST and used Fruity just for sequencing and EQ, mixing etc? I ask this because i could never get any real quality sounds from the fruity generators, no matter how hard i tryed, well except from Sytrus maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aukikco Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I've been thinking about this for a long time... Are there really ANY hard, not opinion-based facts on this FLStudio issue? I mean, I'm using FLStudio 5, practically all of my sounds come from external VSTi:s and I use only some of FLStudio's better effects. Is there really some way that FLStudio just makes things sound worse than other sequencers, speaking of sound quality? I find the FLStudio working environment quite pleasant. Have tried some CUBase, but didn't see an advancement using that one. Yesterday I was told that FLStudio adds noise to every mixer channel you add. Meaning, you would get an awfully blurry mix if you used all 64 channels. Any truth on this? If so, why haven't I ever heard this before? You can check a couple of my newer tunes @ http://celluloid.oletustila.net and tell me is there something in the sound quality or whatever that you can blame on FLStudio. Don't bother with the older ones but listen to Stepgnome and Vyleeeem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and a friend made some loops in FL, exported it to wav and put it in cubase. It immediately sounded better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psybro Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Started using Fruityloops Studio in 2003, still hold it very close in my music making tools CPU is really the only problem, it will make noise if your VSTs are changed a lot and or they eat quite a bit out of your CPU power. It really depends if your wanting to get the highest quality sound possible, FL may not be the absolute star in quality but, again its not the software you use its the user of the software. Making the most out of your audio creating experiences is to probably have a PC only for you to create on. Not a cheap alternative for many, but it will save you a whole lot of time and hassle in the long run. Reason is a really great program but it does lack the VST use, quality of the sound is kinda difficult to say as i have never compared it to FL. Cubase is a pro software and is awesome for arranging and mixing and such, but to create tracks entirely within it proves quite difficult and does require a lot of time and though into learning it and fitting it to your musical needs. I honestly couldn't tell you want to use and what not to, but i can say do what you want, its very difficult to please other peoplewith something you create as there are some things people may not like, but thats not to say its crap or unfit for listening. if it sounds great to you then its probably the same to some others! Best of luck eJay is out of business now btw, wonder how that happened Bo0M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amithaba_buddha Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Fruity Loops is good , i use it for 10 years since i started on my music production , done lots of releases on professional labels . TS404 is one of my favourite synths as its very good for arpeggios , if you want another synth that gives more cutoff frequency try muon tau for example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syntaxis Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Best "software" to make psytrance - your brain, heart, soul and life experiences. No mater what kind of sequencer you will be use. Try all available DAW's and make a choice what will be more comfortable for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geostigma Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 FL is a very nice starter tool for people to get to know what a DAW can do. Thing is, FL covers a lot basics... but it's missing a lot of flexibility. It's hard to change to another DAW, but download some demo versions and try them out for a couple of days to make sure which one suits you better. I myself am using ableton, and it takes a lot of effort to get to learn it, but when you've mastered the learning part... you will be getting SO much out of it. Possibilities become endless so to speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalki Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 FL covers a lot basics... but it's missing a lot of flexibility. aah I think the only thing missing is FL does not make a track by itself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalki Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Although I am an Fl user I always had an attraction towards Reason. Bcos it's synts sounds so good and really analogish. But that problem was over after the arrival of sylenth1 Vst. They have even made it look like the synth in Reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psymetal&bass Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Either FL Studio, Cubase or Ableton, I think they're good DAWs for anything really, Logic for Mac is also very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was made for that! Great list of synthesizers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
