Time to do something

Posted by Mrmilkcarton - December 29th, 2008


Well I'm sorry to everyone who loves FL studios but I'm going to be moving on to a new sequencer with better technology. I've been searching around looking at whats best for me and what the program has to offer. I tried Reason and it was really fun but really I feel too limited by what it has to offer. I love its Compressors and reverb but what can I say the price they are asking for me to use only a few Synthes when I can have an open DAW that will allow me to use any synthe I want.

So right now I'm looking at Logic Pro 8, Sonar 8, and ableton live 7all of which are in my general price range of 500 dollars. I'm gonna rule out Sonar right now because my new platform of choice is a Mac (sorry windows fans). So right now I know a good amount about logic but ableton is still in the dark. By tomorrow I'll probably have a choice and a new program on its way.

Just because I'm moving to a new sequencer doesn't mean I'll forget all about FL so if you have any questions I can probably answer. My main reason for moving on is the amount of money I would have to put into VST programs from 3rd party companies to get my synthes to sound better. One thing I did notice with Reason was my songs were much wider and the treble was always filled. In FL I have always struggled and I suppose some of it was my mixing and choice of synthes but technology can also make things a ton easier.

Hopefully I'll beable to move up in the world which is bad news for you guys. Lately I've been kind of left in the dark on newgrounds which is fine by me. I like haveing only 2 or 0 reviews on my songs. Though I would love to make some money. You honestly don't have to worry much though I'm hard on myself and it will be a while before I think I've made anything of professional quality. By the time summer comes around I hope though to beable to produce music that I feel is of the right quality.

Cheers.

I think you'll really like Logic, it's pretty straightforward and has some pretty neat tricks. Good luck :)

DON'T TRY AND TALK ME OUT OF IT MAN!

TRAAAAIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTORRRRRRRRRRR RRRRRR

logic is probably the way forward tho, you can just rewire reason into most daws anyway and use it for it's synth capabilities.

Ya. Rewiring reason into logic should be nice if I'm ever able to do it.
