I use garageband, ableton, FL studio, and massive to make my music. Still have a long ways to go though. If you have any tips on one of these 4 things, don't be afraid to share :) -CK

This music sucks.

That im still using garageband rather than trying to work on my skills with ableton. Can someone please hack my computer and delete garageband from it so i will stop using it?

Someone on youtube recently explained to me how i can get more volume on my tracks. I decided to try it and geuss what? It worked. I tried it with my song =(Laughter)= and it has alot more volume than before.

Small note though, you will note that the voice clips have changed. That is because in my video production class, we are all doing music videos. I asked if i could use one of my own songs and he said yes. I cut the ponies clip out because the video will NOT involve anything MLP related unfortunately.

But if SOMEONE had a dimentional transporter, i could use that to feature them in it XD
Anyway, will be putting it on here in a moment. '

I was going to make this a surprise but the god damn audio portals picky system on mp3's prevented that. But i am currently into full gear in ableton now....well, sorta. You see, the songs below that i will list have 2- no wait, 3 issues.

1. I need better drums. The kick is way too quiet for me to use in my songs.
2. I need a plug in that makes my own synths. The synth presets are just utterly awful. Unless there is a way to make your own sounds, i am going to need a plug in for that. Please list any suggestions down below.
3. Better understanding of effects. I want to use them in my own unique way. For an example, i wanted to make a dance delay in the pattern on superior remake but i just couldn't find the right one.

And most importantly, if you know anyone on the audio portal (besides FNG) who is rlly good with ableton, PLZ IMFORM ME! I have been utterly frustrated trying to figure out this new programs layout. I have watched a couple of tutorials but i keep getting these problem that i don't know how to solve. So please, if anyone knows anyone who is good with ableton, please send me a pm or ask the person to present him/her self to me.

I would ask FNG but he has been way too busy with omnivore songs to help me. Avizura is the same too, he probably is making another album or something.

Heres the links to the clips i have made so far. They are just little snippets of stuff i made.

First attempt
Superior remake (short)

Edit: So, my friend wanted to try ableton to see how dificult to use, right? So i gave him my flashdrive and noticed i had massive on there. He asked if he could have that too and i said sure. After that, he installed ableton. He decided to try massive as well to see if it would work. I told him that he should wait until i try installing it but he did anyway and was successful. So i went home and tried installing it myself. It was successful and i tried some of the synths.

AND IT HAS SOME REAAALLY GOOD SYNTHS!! Like, the ones i would like to use. This will defiantely help with the synthesizer problem. But i thought massive was only good for dubstep. Gusss i was wrong :P

Now, to figure out how to take care of the drum problem...

Enough brony t-shirts, i got something really awesome coming my way. Apparently, my dad wants to get me a new computer for my music making. I am so excited! I can experience the joys of pc gaming and downloading stuff. Also, he agreed to get me a midi controller since that is most crucial for music making. Which one should i get i wonder though. I was thinking of cakewalk but someone on facebook said i should get an apc40. I CANT DECIDE!!

I got a ton of money as well so i can finally buy stuff off of itunes and bandcamp.....and maybe get more shirts :P

Cheers ^_^
