What Software/Hardware Do You Use To Make Beats?

[JackV]

Im using FL Studio 9. Im using my laptop keyboard at the moment, I had a keyboard but I had to return it.

Reason for sure. I've never used FL studio or any others, my friend is a Reason professional so I could catch his techniques a few years ago.. now I wouldn't use anything else. I can use it for both sampling and original beats, so I'm happy with it. I also use Audacity sometimes.

I just DL'd FL Studio. Anyone know of a tutorial on how to use it?

http://warbeats.com/Tutorials great tutorials

But I use fl10. Just that, no keyboard or anything like that...wish I had a keyboard tho.

Sony acid pro 7 is what i think is the best.

I make my beats with cubase 5 + Reason 5 and my sound card is M-Audio Transit, I play using M-Audio Keystation 49e, Korg padKONTROL, I record using mxl-990, with a behringer 12channel mixer, my monitors are M-audio BX5a's

I use FL 10 now with Alesis Q49 midi keyboard.
Looking for a sound card, monitors and microphone.

I use Sony Acid Pro. I love its work flow as a DAW.
My studio hardware consists of:
Yamaha Motif
Moog Voyager
Access Virus Ti
Lots of great samples of drums etc
Universal Audio 2192 master clock/converter
Lynx L22 sound card
Various guitars, mics & pre-amps and any item I can get my hands on to record!

Software: Custom written dispatch based cluster architecture. Interface controller node manages resources of the other nodes and audio is either streamed across network connection or through a solid state mixer(modified Digidesign 1622 IO, DAC/ADC bit width expanded). Everything synthesized live and cluster dynamically expandable.

Hardware nodes: 6x AMD E-450 x86 nettops, 4x Spartan-6 FPGAs, 5x Texas Instruments TMS320c6748 dedicated DSP/ARM
Hardware interface: A holy crap hack job of knobs, linear slides, touchscreens and shitty soldering.

Everything still under development and constant change/breakage.
