Chad is Dead Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I wanted to know what all I needed to be able to make some beats on my computer and then sing/rap etc into a mic that i can use for the beat? What all would I need to do very basic stuff. I'm not a musician at all or a rapper....i'm just trying to make dumb songs for myself and just experiment w/ some shit. So I'm looking for cheap stuff in case it sucks. Any other input is welcomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87GT Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 iLife with garageband on a mac is the easiest music recoding software ever. Otherwise use winblowz programs "Fruityloops" or "Acid" to make your beats. Then use pretty much any audio program to record your singing... You can drop that into Acid along with your beat.

V8 Beast Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I used to use Fruity Loops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Steve Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Fruityloops, acid, Sonar, logic. Plenty to choose from. How fluent are you? Fruityloops is alright. Good to start there and smooth it out with sonar. Will you be using say drum machine, guitar, keyboard? The best software I used that I liked was Reason.

turbomark Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Reason rocks the house, but definitely not beginner level stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
