Hello!
I've been wondering that I should try other music making softwares. There is that one called Reason.
It must be very good, but there is couple of things I don't like about it. It hasn't VST support, what sounds pretty weird. Maybe it has so good range of instuments in it.
I have once before tried it like three years ago or something. It was over too hard for me to understand. There was a huge work to get a one sound off from it. Piano roll looked very bad and complicated compared to FL studio's piano roll.
A huge minus is the price. It costs like 400 euros. I bet there is a trial version, maybe I check it out someday and write about it here.

Also there is Cubase, what is maybe the most high-quality program. But seems like it doesn't have any instument or drum machine build in. And it costs like hell, 600 euros.

But how I am doing. I will buy new headphones someday and get ridd of these shitty ones. Let me know if you know something very good and not so expensive.

Chapter 9
Still nothing new happened, what is a big shame. But don't worry, I keep you warm with my old songs. Here is one, that I made about two years ago. It's very short and it's supposed to be something like movie music.
Here we go:
Sorry that short stop in the middle of this song. I copied that two times that it's not so short.

Chapter 8
New month with new ideas. I started couple of new projects, but I am afraid none of them will see the day light. There is always that feeling, when you know that song you started to make will be ready someday and published. Didn't have that feeling with these. God, I need inspiration or a good motivator, where do I get one?
I don't have much to say right now, so I show you a screenshot about my previous song ( this has it ).
As you can see, it looks very clean and simple. That's the way I like to keep it, it's much easier to handle and work with it. If you are making a song and everything is like a big mess it's very frustrating, so keep it as simple as you can.
