Anyone know of a good music composing program? Not something that makes beat loops and "excuse-for-music-styles" like hip/hop, dance, techno etc. Should have lots of instrument synths. Cakewalk or Cubase?

WHY NOT JUST EDIT THE SAME POST INSTEAD OF FLOODING?

Because then no-one will notice the new addition, and phpBB2 does not have a "bump topic" feature. (It's in phpBB3, by the way.)Spicy-McHaggis wrote:WHY NOT JUST EDIT THE SAME POST INSTEAD OF FLOODING?

What plugin did you use to make the rubby ducky sounding bit at the end there?
And please upload your two previous tracks at a higher bit rate, maybe 192?

I used a VSTi called PoiZone with custom settings

Ron's meagre attempt at making decent trance: click click (you may have to right click and choose "Save As")
(That "Dreams Will Fade" is absolutely awesome, by the way - I want a high quality version!)

if you like cakewalk and cubase - you should try fruity loops and reasoncapanno wrote:Anyone know of a good music composing program? Not something that makes beat loops and "excuse-for-music-styles" like hip/hop, dance, techno etc. Should have lots of instrument synths. Cakewalk or Cubase?

It's a nice refreshing change from what I'm used to. Gets my vote of approval. 
(I'm already trying to work out how to incorporate it into my next set.)

Cool, thanks Ron.Ron2K wrote:It's a nice refreshing change from what I'm used to. Gets my vote of approval.

Yeah it is quite different - which is why I like it. But then again, I made it, so of course i'm going to like it. 
Your next set? I thought you gave up DJing to become a l33t programmer?

Sup people. Thanks to Futs, my rig is finally up and running again.
Bad news: My hard drive is cased. All my projects, work and other music is gone and as far as my VST instuments and effects are concerned, I have to start over again.
Anyway, all I have to do now is wade through the nightmare of wires and reconnect my sampler, midi controllers and mixer, then i can start to produce again.
I think the kick drum you used sounds a bit too 90's techno-ish. You can get some decent free drums, hats, snare, etc. for free at www.vipzone-samples.com.
I think you chose the right instrument for your main lead, but I would suggest that you could may try shortening the attack a bit and add some delay. Also, try replacing the instrument for your intro with a saw-type synth and add reeverb to it and see how it comes out

I really like the main lead when and what you done near the end when it all comes together.Ron2K wrote:Ron's meagre attempt at making decent trance: click click (you may have to right click and choose "Save As")

Sup people.
Made another track last night. I don't know if you guys ever heard that tune "Walk alone" by East Clubbers before, but here's my remix

Nice!
As far as arrangement goes, I can't fault you. It all flows nicely!
If I may suggest something, the kick drum sounds very generic. For that specific drum-loop you got going there, how bout trying out a few hip-hop style kickdrums?
If you want, I can email you a few
