Hey everyone, i know this is asked a lot but im stuck on it. My uncle upgraded a lot of his software and got a new pc so he gave me a lot of software but i dont know which is best for my music.
I have FL Studio 8 XXL with nexus, vangaurd, and z3ta+. I use this now and its great but all of the songs i make out of it seem quiet. the biggest issue is that i heard FL does not work well with midi controller out of the box and needs a lot of tweaking.
I have reason 4 and have semi worked with it. i dont ever really record audio so thats no issue. It takes no vst's but the synths it has seem to work really good. Also it apparently works well with controllers.
I have the albeton suite 8. i cant figure out the interface so i haven't done a lot with it. i dont see any synths or really anything to make electronic music from midi.
Thats all i have installed now. i have cubase 5 and sonar 8. Also he has pro tools HD and said if i ended up needing it he would give me it but it was more complicated than all the others.
Now if it helps i know my way around in FL but it seems to lack control without vsti's and even with good ones it just doesn't seem right. The sound i go for is of Basshunter's early stuff, Eric Prydz: Pjanoo, and almost all of Air base so hopefully that helps. The keyboard im looking at is an M-Audio Axiom 25 (non pro). if the pro is so much better can i know why? and which DAW do you suggest? I like the workflow of FL but that will change with this keyboard and Reason seems the next best option afaik.
