[REDRUM559]

whats good software like the pro use

like pro tools and stuff any help

i got a friends thats good at rapping and he told me if i can help him out and shit i was like coo

 

[City Situation]

Yeah Pro Tools is a good start. That's actually all you really need if you just wanna record songs. Then spend money in hardware, maybe on some plugins (I suggest Waves).

it all depends on what you're trying to do, make beats or record or both. reason for making beats, pro tools for recording, logic for both

propellerhead reason

yes

Tell him to stop rapping not even .5% of cali's population want to hear a bull frog rap

it doesnt matter what u use. All software is good. Many so called artists and producers look down upon software users. If u ever encounter something like that just say chinga tu madre. Test everything though. Most of it is all the same shit. If Dr. Dre and Dj Quick used that beatmaking game on ps2 to make beats then everybody else would too. Test around.

If you want to make beats, I recommend FL Studio 7. For recording Lyrics and mixdown, I would use something else such as Cubase, Pro-Tools, Logic.

For Pro-Tools your going to need the hardware. For instance, Pro Tools M-Powered is a more affordable way to get started with the software. And then, Pro Tools LE w/ an Mbox/Digi is another route. More serious, Pro Tools HD. So since you are starting out, unless you have the money and are serious, Pro Tools is a big investment and if you have no prior experience, can be difficult to learn. If you are serious however, it's worth it, as Pro Tools is still the standard.

I recommend you get a solid audio interface and Cubase SX. If you run MAC, get Logic.

You'll also need a studio condenser microphone, there are plenty budget mics out there, very affordable. I'd also invest in a good pre amp if your just doing vocals over beats.

There are many ways to go about it, research. I wouldn't recommend you go and break bread on a bunch of equipment and software just because your friend is good at rapping, unless your serious about music yourself, which it seems to me your just getting into it and have no idea where to start.

Your friend needs studio time, if he's serious, he should know that. He can book himself studio time.

I like the adobe audition interface. Cool edit crashed all the time. Adobe is going to take that program and run with it, watch.

if its got a 44.1 bit rate or higher, it well put it in just as clean as pro tools

only edge that pro tools has is its plug ins are more powerful

I use Pro Tools, and Acid Pro 6.0, running through digi001 hardware... and you could not tell the difference half the time from a mixdown on either program, go with whats more comfortable... I use to be a huge pro tools advicit, but the reality is that Cubase, Sonar and ACID on a PC work better and are more stable, also a lot of free cracked plug-ins... and you arn't stuck to just digi hardware
