My suggestion is play around with other peoples software. I have gone through a lot of DAW'S. I found one that spoke to me the way I think and work. And remember Minimal is an idea not a genre!
Back in the day they had a drum synth that did everything. It is really all you need.
good luck!!!

Re: software
Been using it for 5 years on all my productions. Akufen, Deadbeat, Jeff Samuel, Crackhaus and many many others don't think it sucks. Maybe you should try to learn it better.Stomper wrote:FL (which i think suck!) Ableton and other.

Aren't you getting tired of telling people FL doesn't suck? I know I ampheek wrote:Been using it for 5 years on all my productions.

I wonder what went through ImageLine's head when they decided to call it Fruity Loops. It's a rather cartoonish, toyish name for an otherwise very good piece of software. They probably were candy ravers back then.
Now for a bit of off-topicality...

Can you believe kids eat this trash before going to school!?! No wonder they have Ritalin as a side dish and can't write!! My mom just retired from teaching but went back for a month just to help the school out (newbee teachers quit and look for another carreer... The same way you press "reset" on a game console once you've been shot right after starting the game... those kids...). She told me it was a good time to retire... kids are... well she says the future is scary. And my mother always hits the nail on the head. Great woman.
Anyway..
I think I'll have Müslix'... with strwberries on top! Yummmy!!
Finally a sunny day in Montreal...

LOL
that image cracked me up
anyway as i said before, i just found FL to be uncomfterble to use.
and i got what u guys said, doesnt really metter what u r using as long that u know how to use it correctly
i just thought that some software have an advantage on other, all depending on what u want to creat.

Yep... My transition to electronic zik was done with this:

With that thing, you are forced to make the most out of every sound... hence I got to know it backwards. I recenly loaded a few tracks I did with this thing... It became obvious that the excitement of moving to using a computer and all the gadgets made me lose track of a few fundamental things.
Re: software
I use it too ... Most people look at me in disbelief when I say I made such and such with FL. If you use external VST's, there's no noticable difference in sound quality between this and other platforms.pheek wrote:Been using it for 5 years on all my productions.
