Best software to create Beats/Music?

Hey guys 😕

I'd love to create some beats/music on my own and here comes the part where I have a few questions.

I don't have any tunetable or such, for the start I want to work with the software only and get to know it better.
There are 2 programs I personally know: Frooty Loops & Ableton.
From what I have heard yet it seems like Frooty Loops is an easier to use but not as deep 'configureable' program like ableton - Is that right?

So what program should I pick now?
And can I create any kind of genre with that program?
I'd love to try out some electrical stuff like Dubstep, Goa, Trap, House [...]

Thanks for any kind of advise & help. 😏

Martin Garrix uses Fruity Loops. The choice is yours to make
My friends use FL studios to make their rap beats

I don't recognize the name but it seems like I should.. lol.
So FL is not "bad"?
I can create HQ beats with it? 🎉

I use Fl Studio 11 (you can get 12) I make rap/trap/hip-hop beats and making music isn't so easy it takes time to learn just don't give up though.

You can create HQ beats with a stick and a pan ..

I could name other artists that use Fruity Loops but since you never heard of Martin Garrix I feel it isn't needed.

Yes, you can make HQ beats with it.

Example:



When i first started i just had a good mess around on virtual dj pro, its very good. Should definatly take a look.

Wow, sounds really good. 😉
Since Ableton freaks me a bit out I'll give fruity loops a try. 👍

Thanks a bunch guys. 🎉

I used FL Studio when I produced, mixed in with a whole bunch of VST plugins and sample packs.

Good luck. While I'm at it, the default Fruity Loops sounds and their plugins are pretty tough to work with but definitely worth checking out (The example project proves this).

You should really torrent the Vengeance sample collections on KAT. Over 50GB of individual sounds you can use, suitable for almost every genre in some way or another.
FL Studio and Fruity Loops are the same program if you didn't figure that out. But yeah FL Studio.

Virtual Dj pro is for mixing/remixing not creating
Been using FL for about 2 years now. Tried switching over to ableton but the look of the software was horrendous compared to FL. As for people saying Ableton is for more advanced users,that's utter bullshit. A software is only good if you know how to use it. Stick to FL.
frooty loops if you want to be a baller
