I'm a beginner making music with Linux Multimedia Studio, and I've also downloaded Hydrogen just to use the extra drum samples. The problem I'm having is I've heard I can import the drum samples from Hydrogen over to LMMS but I don't know how. I've asked around and apparently alot more people using LMMS and Hydrogen are using Linux and not Windows (Obviously since they're Linux programs but both have a Windows compatible version). Does anyone using LMMS and Hydrogen on Windows know which folder I need to copy over?

I'm planning on doing my own remixes, but I'm not entirely sure where to start. I'm a beginner, so I don't know if I should shell out the cash for any super expensive music software right away. I've looked into several including Fruity Loops Studio, but the price definitely has me hesitant, plus other cheaper software doesn't seem to be able to create tracks in mp3 format which is required here. I also have some traditional instruments, but I don't know how to record with those either without any air or background noise. Does anyone have any advice on inexpensive or free software to just play around with and learn until I get the hang of doing major stuff? I'd like to do both electronic and rock remixes. Sorry in advance if this requires a huge answer, like I said I'm a beginner so I have no idea exactly how simple or complicated this stuff can be lol.
