Thanks for the post, and for being patient with a novice. Your explanation helped a lot.

I just thought of something. Do any of you have some music posted on the internet done with this software? I'd really like to listen to the differences between them (FLXX7, Reason, Komplete 5, etc.)

Thanks to all of you for the advice. Don't worry, I don't plan to pirate the software. You're talking about a guy who always uses i-tunes, and never downloads music (I think people should get credit for the work). I'd like to clarify one point: Komplete 5 will not accept a midi controller right?

Has anyone here used both Propellorhead and Komplete 5? What do you think between the two?

Wow, brilliant advice. Really my end goal is to create realistic soundscapes, so samples and range of tones are most important to me. It sounds like a software synth is the way to go. Komplete 5 looks good, but I guess I'll still need a multitracking program.

Thanks very much. That information helps a lot. I have another question: I'm concerned that if I go with Komplete 5, it may stifle my creativity. I'd want to compose on a keyboard. If I record a keyboard into Komplete 5's multi tracking software, can I just replace the recorded signal with one of the synth engines in Komplete 5? In other words, the sequence of notes and the notes remain, but the sound is completely erased and altered by the program.

Hello. Sorry to ask the same stupid question as the person before, but I would like to know the answer to it. I'm a novice at this. I've been doing music for a long time, but I want to start doing electronic music. Sort of a Euro/Electronic/Modern/Clean sound. And maybe some tekno. Given that I want to do this genre, what would be the best keyboard? I want as many possible sounds/samples, for around $1000. What do you think? On a side note, any recommendations for computer software? I'm looking at Propellorhead and Fruityloops at the moment. How about other drum/looping software? Sorry to be a bother. Thanks to anyone who responds. Your advice is much appreciated.
