Sounds Good, well I have to say that during my ummmm in between gear which i have used gear since the 90s's...but during the in between gear days I made a ton of beats with Reason and Fruity only because I was sort of forced to for awhile, some of you thats been on ill at least 3.5 years or so remember them days of pain LOL anyhow, many people were feeling my beats a lot more for a few reasons....sonic quality and just all around feel and arrangement....but of course I could not wait to get back to my normal gear set up which after those dark ages I reclaimed all of my old gear but the whole while only really dabbling with Fruity Loops here and there and then finally in Version 4 I paid for the producer edition after using a copy of the demo and having had version 3 for the longest...I had to have that mixer and then boom it worked will with my waves plugins.....i made some more beats on there but not a whole lot....why?....of course my gear LOL, my inseparable babies...mpc 3000 & mpc 2000 and a decent workstation (which by the way over the last 3 years and plus I owned (fantom S, Fantom XR, Triton Extreme, sp1200 and sp12, motif classic and the motif ES and I probably did leave a few pieces off to save space) anyhow with a better PC and Protools Fruity Loops is touching and surpassing mostly all that gear because the sequencing and arranging is much more flexible.....and not to mention now I SAmple all of my sounds from the motif, the Fantom and anything I pipe in via midi to fruity loops....instead of using midi for the mixdown I just track the audio from the Motif or whatever external sound source then I dont have to worry about midi timing or delay etc that used plague older versions of fruity if you used external gear or had a weak PC......once you start using the program with HIGH QUALITY SAMPLES or Synths the sky is the limit I am pretty much going to be using this program for a lot of my tracks for the most part in conjunction with my external modules & workstations.....
