The always-asked question: Which progs?


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hei all !!

 

I've decided to try out my skillz in the GOA-genre, but how do I manage that? First of all, I've bought Reason 2.0 and SoundForge 4.5. But what more do I need? Which programs is it, that makes the sounds, and which one only manages sounds - like i.e. Cubase is a sound-manager, right? Cubase doesn't really make sounds, does it? And do I need a keyboard and so on?

 

I want to make dark-minimalistic trance, similiar to Reefer Decree and other Iboga acts. Which progs are in this case, the best?

 

I know this question has been asked a lot.. but I hope you can help me anyways ;}

 

Btw: Please add some links, to the programs you advise me to use, otherwise I'm only left with a name, and don't know what to do... !

 

Thanks!!

U can do a lot with only Reason2 and SF. You just have to learn it, get to

know it, abuse it and use it.

 

;)

 

A good masteringtool would be good to have too. 'cus I find it rather hard

to make really phat basslines with Reason.

 

iZotope Ozone or T-Racks are good masteringtools I think.

Sorry, I don't have any URLs to T-racks.. :(

To have a prepared sound system on your PC ......Cubase 5 or SX for Arranging the waves and your midi... yes it has cool effects...It is good toeffect out the sounds and create a really characteristic sound..... Sound forge is really usefull to generate psykicks and basic waves I am using the Snd Forge 6...To make minimal i would recommend Fruity loops too...

 

Overall

 

Cubase (To arrange)

Sound Forge (To generate) :)

Plug ins (synth)Vsti

Keyboard ( if U wanto make your own melodies)any midi

Reason

Fruity Loops (for minimal)

REAKTOR

 

 

 

Actually what u have now is very good ,but i would have sequencer like cubase to put everything together Reason as a sequencer is not that good
