How-to: Produce music on the computer for beginners

]]>
So you have a passion for music and want to produce music of your own? There are a number of ways to get started, and I will cover a few of the most popular ones. To produce music is to have a creative mind and get rewarded for that creativity. Some people are even able to sell and license their music to artists after only a few months of practice.
The first thing to decide is what kind of music you want to produce. There are almost unlimited choices when it comes to producing music. You may choose to make hip hop beats, r&b beats, rap beats, or maybe you like trance or techno. Either way certain tools make it easier to produce certain genres of music.
If you want to start producing trance or techno music, you may want to check out a program called FL Studio. I have found that FL Studio is a good music production program for those looking to get started with trance, techno, electronic, or drum and bass music. However, I would not recommend starting with this program unless you have SOME music production experience as you may find the controls and settings a little bit too technical for your liking.
For those who want to start making hip hop or rap beats, I would suggest a program called Sonic Producer. It’s not exactly a program, it’s more of a complete system to help you constantly improve your music production skills. Sonic Producer is a social music production website that is based around their state of the art music production sequencer.
Membership to the site is only $29, which includes a whole lot: access to their sequencer, which is worth more than double that on its own. It has 16-tracks, an enormous preset instrument library, mp3 export capability, 8 DJ pads, and that’s just scratching the surface. With membership they give you access to an amazing wealth of knowledge right at your fingertips. The community there is very supportive and I have seen newbies go from no music production experience to selling their beats to artists with a Sonic Producer membership in a matter of months.
After you become proficient at making beats and producing music, you can start to integrate offline music production programs into the mix. You see, I like to use my offline programs like FL studio for creating beats and samples to plug into Sonic Producer. It’s simply not worth it for a beginner to drop a few hundred bucks on an expensive desktop program at first when they can get a beat maker, beat making lessons, community support, and the option of a full refund with Sonic Producer. If you’re looking to produce music, look no further than Sonic Producer.

If you are searching a good music production software for beginners, then you have probrably heard of DubTurbo by now.
DubTurbo is the first DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) ever released with every feature that a fully functioning recording studio has and at a mere fraction of the price.
No I want to discuss in my article what was the best things about DubTurbo for me.
You can see other programs online such as FruityLoops or Cubase. These are very good and proffessional programs but when you start using them, you quickly find that they are very difficult to use because you are a beginner, trust me! And programs like cubase and fruityLoops are several times more expencive then DubTurbo. And it is very easy to use.
So this is where Dub Turbo comes in!
It gives you a fully functioning recording studio and all the features, keyboard, drum kit, wave editor and you can even burn your new creations onto CD or convert them to mp3, wav or what ever.
Another thing to note about was the speed in which you could get your music created and out there with it sounding awesome! All the samples that it uses were recorded in a REAL recording studio and that is what will give your beats that “EDGE”.
You can get an awesome beats in just 10 mins because of tutorial videos which is included with the software package.
If you are interested in good music production software fo beginners then CLICK HERE to read full DubTurbo review with video examples and secret 75% off link.

Synthesizers are electronic, keyboard-based instruments that produce artificial, or synthesized, sounds. Many frequently mistake synthesizers for simply portable, electronic pianos, but the differences are extremely vast. While synthesizers can definitely produce a piano sound, their main purpose, usually, is to create sounds not specifically found on any other instrument.
The process of creating these sounds is sometimes very difficult; while some synthesizers come with pre-created sounds, or patches, many come with a clean slate. The synthesizers produce sounds by a series of dials and knobs dedicated to a variety of aspects: oscillation, modulation, sustain, delay and attack, just to name a few. Some synthesizers even create sounds based on a patch bay.
Remember old telephone operators that patched calls through based on cords and inputs? Some synthesizers use the same principle (and are generally used by those with an extremely advanced knowledge of their workings). And what’s more, many older synthesizers don’t offer the option of saving the sounds created; instead, the user has to keep detailed records of dial and knob placement, being careful to catch every nuance. To recreate a sound on these synthesizers is to keep very meticulous notes.
Synthesizers made their break into popular music during the 1970s and 80s when numerous progressive rock bands began using them to create cosmic, unfamiliar sounds. However, devices from different manufacturers were generally not compatible with each other and could not be interconnected, so eventually a digital standard for musical instruments called “midi” was born. Midi is an acronym for musical instrument digital interface.
Midi allowed synthesizers made by different companies to communicate with each other, which was a huge breakthrough and was responsible for the explosion of synthesizer use. One of the first synthesizers was a “Moog”. I remember meeting Bob Moog back in the 70′s at NAMN – a trade show in Anaheim across the street from Disneyland. More than any other person, Moog had created the first useable and affordable synthesizer. Soon companies such as Roland and Yamaha with deeper pockets came out with more affordable models. I think I bought my first synth in about 1980 – a Roland that I used for probably 10 years before moving on to something more current.
The use of synthesizers quickly developed into an entirely new genre of music, electronic music, headed by such veterans as Kraftwerk (who, by the way, are still massively popular). They eventually found their way into almost every branch of 1980s popular music — which is probably why they fell so far out of favor. Synthesizers in the mainstream music industry quickly became associated with 1980s bubblegum pop, the very thing that new rock and punk bands were railing against. And even while an electronic music scene thrived (and even revolutionized), synthesizers became known as the outdated kiss of death for popular, mass-audience intended music.
The late 90s, however, saw a resurgence in the use of synthesizers among underground rock and punk bands (ironically enough) and have quickly become re-embraced by the popular music industry.
