Eurobeat Prime :: Forum

hello everyone ,so let be straight to the point im extremele new (like just got fl studio and can only make a basic kick )i want to learn some more but i dont have the will (for now ,thx to have a shit year behind me) to fiddle with the presets so im asking for some help !! how can i get better in eurobeat than a few kicks and claps , how do you guy layer ,how do you make masterpieces like you do by using some MIDI files and VTS plugins

grtz a starting artist called WirelesS

I think you should get used with the basic things first.... if we explain,it would take billion words and you still feel confuse.....

I see you use FL Studio,it's a good DAW...
basic things you need to learn

- How to install and load sample,VST,preset...
- How to use common features like Mixer,Piano Roll,Playlist....
- Learn how to mixing using FL-built in plugin like EQ,Limiter,Softclip,Compress...
- Learn how to arrange,compose a song (simple first...then go higher)....

Also there are alots of free sample packs out-there,if you want to search for kick drum,FX,acapella...
A very good VST and free i recommend is Synth1..

Just spend your time on google and youtube....patience is a key to success...

---search for "eurodance fl studio tutorial", eurodance is quite similar to eurobeat,if you want into producing high energy dance genre music,eurodance is a good start...-
After you master basic things,go back to us,check my synth1 eurob guide thread...

good luck!

Something I think is important that is often overlooked in threads like this: Learning how to make something good musically is more important than the technical, more "producer" side of things (not to say it isn't important at all, but think of all the amazing music that came out of some gameboy games despite not having very "good" sound capability).

Learn some music theory or just play around with melody and harmony alongside synthesis and mixing etcetc

I think I remember Bratt Sinclaire himself saying something along these lines in an interview. He played a very simple acoustic rendition of Yesterday and it was still lovely. A good tune is a good tune in any context, genre is just how you dress it up.

yes, mr.Mind,making music is not something you can learn all in one night,it take alots of trials and errors, but it's really not something like math formulars ....music is how you export your emotions though sound instruments and make your melody..

also when you listen to a song,try to analyze it's sounds,structures and save experience for yourself..inspired artists you like,and rise up your creativity ,change into your own musical style!

If you mean that music theory is like math formulas, don't think of music theory that way. It's not a strict set of rules you use, it's more like a language to help you understand what you're hearing and how it works.

Plus, it's easier to break the "rules" when you know them first.

well,that's why basic -> creativity. Math is tough,i hate Math..ha ha!

Like Mindsweeper said: learn music theory!!

It felt kind of tough at first but trust me, it's not. There are plenty of sites and videos to get you started.
