you need NONE of that shit!!!!! there’s a website called beepbox.co. literally all you have to do is press things until it sounds a modicum of nice. it’s easy it’s free and it works on anything which has a browser because it’s a website.

if even ONE person starts making music bc of this post it will be worth it.

I'm gonna try and make music

Ableton has excellent free websites to learn the basics:

Learning Music

Learning Synths

You can learn basically everything you need on YouTube. I recommend:

Mercurial Tones Academy

Dan Worrall

Bthelick

A lot of your favorite artists, mainly in electronic music, likely have done track breakdowns, you can watch those to learn how they do things.

DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) ultimately all do the same things, and Cakewalk is a great FREE fully fledged one. Sure it has some issues, and doesn’t have many plugins included, but it works just fine. All the music I released so far was made there, before I made the jump to Ableton.

As for VST plugins:

Vital is an excellent free synth

Native Instruments Komplete Start is a good free collection of plugins

TDR Nova is a great free EQ

There’s a lot of others and I don’t wanna name everything I’m aware of here, but feel free to DM me for more (Or if you have any other questions and stuff too).

And as for samples, you can get a bunch of free ones at:

Cymatics

Ghosthack

Having good headphones is nice and what I’d recommend you invest in first once it comes to it, but even your current ones will probably be fine, mainly if you slap AutoEQ onto them to flatten the frequency response. And ultimately, music isn’t all about the mixing, the most important part is conveying an emotion.

Yeah, there is still quite the learning curve, I get that, though it’s also why it’s managed to hold me as a hobby for so long.

I do however have something of the exact opposite variety too, the most simple way to make music I know of, and a wonderful little semi-social experience, along the lines of the game Journey:

Oh _lovely_. Everyone go turn this off:

“No age gap??!?!?”

“And no non-con elements”

“NO NON CON?”

“And no coercion or otherwise manipulative behaviors”

“Joe they want a vampire with NOTHING”

DRAGON MAID

Currently suffering from a chronic illness that I'm still trying to find proper diagnosis and treatment for - am currently unable to work and bills are piling up. Any support would be a huge help.

Just tip £15 and name any Pokemon you would like me to draw, and I'll do it.

Like??? The fuck you mean Val gets himself a double for the scene Angel's character is eager and initiating things??? The fuck you mean this might somehow be a reference to how their relationship was at first????

I don't think Val has ever starred in a porno meant for the public. Maaaaybe very very early on. Maaaaaybe recorded himself and his partner/s for his eyes only. Val isn't an actor, he's a model. We see him on posters everywhere. That hot guy? You can work for him! Maybe you'll be lucky enough to get fucked by him! Listen to what he has to say on this talkshow! Buy from the brand he's wearing! Sure, Vox is the face of the Vees, but Val is the body. Yes he's a movie director, but we all know that's a formality and every night he's about and about in bars and clubs! Look how much fun he's having, and he can offer you this life and freedom if you sign on the dotted line! Actors work, and models just get all dolled up and take pretty pictures! He barely lifts a finger at his job, isn't he living the perfect afterlife?!
