"FL Studio is perfect for beginning musicians", "it has got a really good GUI", "it is intuitive for beginners", "FL Studio has a steep learning curve" ! Aren't the first three comments contradictory to the last one ?!
All DAW's have a steep learning curve. Music production has a lot of moving parts and a lot to learn! Even though the first three are true, that doesn't mean it won't take a lot of time to get comfortable producing music!
Admittedly, I know next to nothing about DAW's(which is why I'm watching this video)....but....I probably wouldn't include a DAW with a steep learning curve in a video listing the best DAW's for beginners. Perhaps, what you meant to say is that FL Studio has a higher learning curve compared to the other DAW'S in the video.
@@michaelmay9059If he shouldn’t put DAW‘s with a steep lurning curve in there, then this video wouldn’t exist! 💀🤣 Every usable DAW if you really want to produce music has a steep learning curve! This are professional tools where you could do millions of different things! There is no way that could be made really easy… With all these programs Logic, fl studio, ableton etc. it’s the same. A beginner don’t need a long time until he understands how the basics work at least so much, that they have a feeling of success relatively at beginning! But you will learn something new everytime you open the DAW. And you will face many problems over time! And until you could make the idea that you have and the music that’s in your brain to real music, so that you could transfer you ideas to the daw needs years of practice and learning by doing! You will need months of practice and learning for making a music that sounds „okay“! That’s what’s meant with a steep learning curve! Besides music theory because that’s what you need to know (at least a little bit) to make good music! It’s an extremely expensive and time consuming hobby! There is no „easy way or easy daw“! If you just want to chop some complete samples together to a music piece, there are easier ways like „magix music maker“ for example! DAW‘s Are NOT that type of thing! This are professional tools! That’s what you have to deal with if you REALLY want to produce music! 🤷🏽 It‘s comparable with making a movie! You could film with your iphone, edit your videos with windows movie maker and load your video on youtube. But if you want to make MOVIES and not only youtube videos, you have to deal with a steep learning curve and learning and practicing on editing with professional tools and professional cameras… I know it’s not meant to be mean, because you don’t have experience like you said! But there simply is no „easy and fast to learn“ DAW! 😅 And to put in easy programs like magix music maker is simply wrong if you want to make music in my opinion… Because first of all it’s not a DAW, which is what this video is about! And secondly, you learn this programs, put hours and hours of work into it and then you want to really produce music, change to a real DAW and all your learning and work is wasted because it‘s not comparable and completely different in every aspect! Plus even the things you have learnt, you have to learn new because even for those things you have to click on different areas and even those things work completely different! It’s like i said above, cutting and editing your videos with movie maker and then changing to premiere pro for example! 😅 The DAW‘s he has chosen are the most popular ones and you will find tons of tutorials and helpings on youtube and the internet, they all are good for beginners but they all have steep learning curves too! Sadly you can’t change that if you want to make music… Garage Band would be the simplest of those, but even there you have to learn tons of hours and watch tons of tutorials! And i wouldn’t even recommend it really, because it’s more of a „DAW light“ which lacks in features in comparison to all of the others! But for beginners it’s not bad to learn the basics and to know, if you even like making music! Especially because it’s for free! (But only available on apple devices…)
I think FL Studio is for Pros. Tried everything and Studio one is the best for beginners. Easy handling and u can understand everything quick and easy. Sorry fpr my bad english I'm from Germany.
From a guitar/keyboard/DAW user; learn to see it like any other instrument and it will make more sense. You wouldn't be able to just pick up a guitar and start playing songs, you have to learn how to play the guitar. DAW is by far the easiest and honestly most useful of any instrument I've learned, you just have to be willing to learn it ...
This was a really helpful video. As someone who used to make music, but haven't in the last 15 years or so, I really have no idea what kind of DAWs are out there now. I was using Reason 3.0 back in the day! lol Being a mac user, Logic seems interesting, but some of your other recommendations have peaked my interest. Like Reaper, and FL studios. Thanks for the great video. Oh, and from another smaller, growing youtuber, really great work with the video. Very well put together.
Been using FL for 6 months now. Making trap beats is pretty damn easy. I love how I can just open it up and get to work. Downside is mixing, automating and really “producing” is annoying. The workflow isn’t the best so I got Logic like 2 weeks ago. I have yet to finish a project. It feels so difficult to just get started. I see the potential to produce high quality music but man the learning curve. You do things almost completely different than FL. But for some reason I am determined to learn Logic! Guess I’m crazy idk
High production value is overrated. If the song is good, it’ll still sound good on old Nokia phone speakers after being recorded outside on a windy day
Working on a home studio thing and was curious about which one is THE best. I’m Between Logic and Reaper. I use GarageBand but lately I’ve been paying others to make beats. Now with home studio I’m stuck between those two choices. Hmmm
If you're using GarageBand, then it makes better sense from a workflow standpoint to move to Logic. It's an industry standard in terms of many pros use it. Reaper will get you more about the same thing for less, but it doesn't have the same historical pedigree as Logic.
Thank you ...i been debating to myself on which DAW to get ...i have the mpc one plus and i couldn't make up my mind which Daw to purchase im gonna follow my first mind FL Studio....Thank you
I think I’ll get Logic Pro cause it’s not too expensive, I have a Mac, and you can do shit like using and iPad as like a controller, and even move the iPhone up and down to control things.
When you said logic and the other daws have a high learning curve to become a master, do you mean they are all difficult and take a lot of time to learn? If so, is there one amongst them which is the easiest and the best to record vocals with?
And yeah, when I say they all have a high learning curve to master, I mean they all take a while to learn, especially all of their intricacies. If you already know the concepts of music production, that can make things easier, but there are a lot of moving parts to learn and understand and ultimately master when it comes to these programs!
hey i have a question, which DAW has a better drum kit? fl studio or reaper. i don’t know how to play drums nor do i own one, was jus wondering which would be a better option. it’s for making alternative rock/ shoegaze. please help me thank you
I am a begginer and I do not even know to play an instrument let alone midi. But have bought nektar impact lx 61+. But am unable to get my device in ableton. COPuld you please suggest a free and good daw for a begginer like me please
Garageband. But it’s really limited if you couldn’t play an instrument and want to produce a complete track in the daw. To be honest, the only good way is to try the free versions to test it out and then buy it! If you really want to get into producing music that doesn’t sound like absolute trash, then you Simply have to put a few hundred dollars into a good DAW! There are no really good Free DAW‘s. They don’t have a lot of sounds and the sounds, plugins, instruments etc. that they have are garbage. And because you‘re a beginner without knowledge, it’s even worse because they don’t have good user interfaces and are complicated to begin with plus there aren’t a lot of tutorials and overall helpings out there… To really start with music production is expensive at first. You need at least a good DAW and a midi keyboard which will cost you a few hundred bucks. If you want to record your voice or use instruments, you have to also buy a good microphone and you have to buy a audio interface which is expensive too. And that’s really only to begin with. What makes you to produce good songs besides experience is that you have good plugins, good software/hardware instruments and good sounds! And for everything of that you have to pay again! That will cost you really fast another hundreds or thousands of dollars. I produce with logic pro and like he said in this video, logic has the most good sounds and instruments out of the box and even then i needed to buy lots of plugins and sounds after a few months. But to begin with, simply buy a midi keyboard and the DAW that you like. As a beginner i would highly recommend you to buy logic pro if you have an mac because the interface and DAW overall is the most beginner friendly in my opinion. The problem is, if you learn a specific free DAW and then want to switch to a good DAW, you have to learn how to use the program again. I would recommend you to test the DAW’s out or watch a lot of videos and then buy one and stick with it! If you learned how to produce music and it sounds like trash, then it’s not the fault of the DAW. You could produce Banger with every good DAW. Music production is a really really Expensive hobby which needs lots of effort to learn the DAW as well as music theory and at least learn a little bit how to play Keyboard. If you don’t want to spend money in producing music, you don’t even have to start with it because you simply will not getting good songs out of it! Simply forget free DAW‘s, spent a few hundred bucks or you wouldn’t get happy… That’s not meant to be mean, it’s simply the hard reality… 😐
Don’t listen to the first commenter, just listen to a lot of music, don’t think about how many knobs there are, pick one (I choose fl studio) stick with it, if the music sounds good to you then release it, I naturally just played around with it over the years and i naturally learned more and more of the nitty gritty so much so that it’s like drawing a picture for me, you need imagination tho…and to be very flexible with everything…either that or it just came naturally to me
Best mac option to just mix an accompaniment trax and add SATB voices in each track for later export the accompaniment with the individual voices for choir rehearsal??? How do I create each track without listening previously recorded voices? Thank you 🎤🙌
Thanks for the video! Would you recommend Abilton for making House music? I’ve been using GarageBand, but finally bought a MIDI controller and now GarageBand won’t open…guessing it’s not compatible with the M-Audio controller. GarageBand has been so glitchy anyway, that I started thinking I need to upgrade.
Funny that no one reviewer mentions Presonus as a DAW. Why is that. I know I'm moving away from it because of the cost: $180 yearly subscription. Any thoughts?
Studio One is okay, but a yearly subscription makes it tough to root for! There are a lot more powerful and more used DAW's out there that will cost you less in the long term! I think as long you're not completely familiar with a Studio One workflow, then switching might be a good call!
@martinaddison4880 Ohh ..I was planning for FL for remixing mainly for lifetime updates. If you are sure that Studio One Pro V7 is best for this ,then I'll go for it. Please give your assurance 😄
What does DAW means sorry if my question is stupid but I prefer asking a question even if it sound stupid than to actually be stupid by pretending to know something without even knowing the answer
Thank you Mattie for the good understandable introduction into Daws. But 3 things would be nice to change/add: you speak too fast, so I changed the tempo of your video to 0.75 (not everyone here is an Anglo, you know?), and you didn't explained how YOU began? What was your first low Cost steps? Last but not least you didn't analyze DAW Android Apps, Cakewalk, BespokeSynth, Ardour and Cardinal. A tabloid with all important points compared would be nice as pdf download.
It can be a hefty investment for sure! Don't stray away from those free trials though! Ableton has a great one that lasts 90 days! (The last time I checked!) FL Studio's is a bit limited, but at least you'd start to get familiar with the work flow!
I have Cakewalk. I also have Protools free and Reason. I'm just starting to learn Cakewalk and the others I'm not that familiar with. Of those, what's recd for electronic music, but also vocal recording?
Any of those will work for you to learn! I'd say just hop in and start cooking up some music! My personal favorite for electronic is Ableton, but it's less about the DAW and more about getting started!
Reaper is free for 60days and then can be used for free after that (although it's against the license) and costs only 60€. Cakewalk is free on windows. GarageBand is free on Mac.
My daughter is a hip hop artist and shes looking for the best Daw to use to make and record her music. Can anyone give me some advice as to which program I should get. Is Studio One 6 artist a good alternative or should I just get FL studio producer edition
Cakewalk. Or any of the free ones. Ableton Live Lite comes with a lot of gear she'll probably need to buy. So she'll get it that way. Both are very capable systems. Both free. Cakewalk may not be available for upgrades on their free version but it's very good. used it for years
I watched the whole video on DAW for beginners and you never once said what a DAW is. What is it? I genuinely don't know, though I do want to learn how to make simple music productions.
You are correct. I didn't know what DAW stands for and I knew I could use Google, but I wanted to gently make the point that an intro video on DAW might at least say what DAW is.
Ableton easy to learn? I must be a dummy. The GUI seems to have been designed by a committee of 1000 people. I'd rename it Unableton. Some of the vast number of menu dropdowns fall off the bottom of my 42" monitor. It's a gutter of clutter!
I dont like Reaper,I hate FL Studio,the trial version crashed during loading an instrument.So its not a good sign.I'm staying with Studio One.Easiest for me.
Professional means nothing... i know guys that have paid top dollar for DAWS and production sucks.. They lack understanding of arrangements, production quality...very low music "theory" (which is e term i hate).. But.. fact is.. get a DAW and master it..!! I've been using FL faithfully since version 2...so I'm a professional.. classically, piano trained at a music conservatory played saxophone and drums..at the age of 8 yo... Spend your money on learning the instrument(s) you want to master.. Learn what makes a song a classic...(tones, intrument selections, sonic depths, syllable counts within 4 bars) Ready sheet music.. understand chords how to marry chords.. when to clash tones.. The best producers know these little things and pay attention to them.. Finally.. make the music for you to love 1st.. if you love it 1st.. and you don't care what people think.. There are over 4 billion people on this blue ball.. You only need 0.005 to like it!!.. But you gotta love it. !! Good luck to you all... and let's make music😊
Unless you're talking about the stock presets and libraries, the sounds won't differ at all! They'll come from you! You might have more luck searching "stock libraries of X DAW" if you want some more ideas on how their instruments sound
And why is Apple shit?! I learned computers intuitive with no teacher in the 90s with Macs and it was a fantastic easy entry into it. Then I changed later to PCs, and this was first a downfall ;) My brother is musician and producer and he swears, Apple is much more stable and faster in all than Windows. Never problems with drivers or incompatibilities.

Yes there is Lmms. It's free and it's awesome if you know how to use it 😊
Reaper is free for 60days and then can be used for free after that (although it's against the license) and costs only 60€.
Cakewalk is free on windows.
GarageBand is free on Mac.
@@LuLeBe i tried cakewalk but i cant hear sound in it so it wont work
i wanna use logic pro SOOOOO bad but I don't have a macbook nor 200!
My daughter is a hip hop artist and shes looking for the best Daw to use to make and record her music. Can anyone give me some advice as to which program I should get. Is Studio One 6 artist a good alternative or should I just get FL studio producer edition
Cakewalk.
Or any of the free ones.
Ableton Live Lite comes with a lot of gear she'll probably need to buy. So she'll get it that way.
Both are very capable systems. Both free.
Cakewalk may not be available for upgrades on their free version but it's very good. used it for years
Fl gets life time free updates
I'd love to start with Logic Pro but I ain't buying a whole PC only to use a program 😂😂😂
REAPER gang!😎🤟🏻
Any thoughts about audacity?
It's an audio editor, not a daw.
anybody know a daw that has a similar interface as fl studio mobile because fl studio is way too confusing
Well done. Nothing more needs to be said.
10:22, it's Ableton, not Abelton xD
DAWS are so damn expensive! Not a fan of the subscription crap.
I watched the whole video on DAW for beginners and you never once said what a DAW is. What is it? I genuinely don't know, though I do want to learn how to make simple music productions.
Digital Audio Work Station
Simple google would have told you smh
You are correct. I didn't know what DAW stands for and I knew I could use Google, but I wanted to gently make the point that an intro video on DAW might at least say what DAW is.
Perfect video for me thx u
Glad it helped! What DAW made the most sense for you?
@@Music-By-Mattie was logic till I lost my laptop in a luggage coming back to Philly 🥲
@@neotv4K oh dang! I'm sorry to hear that! I hope you can get back to making music again soon!
@@Music-By-Mattie this weekend getting a new laptop so… hopefully fingers crossed lol get back into cooking things up yea so … but thx u boss
Studio One?
Hi, which midi keyboard is te most adapted to Logic Pro X?
nektar midis
Ableton easy to learn? I must be a dummy. The GUI seems to have been designed by a committee of 1000 people. I'd rename it Unableton. Some of the vast number of menu dropdowns fall off the bottom of my 42" monitor. It's a gutter of clutter!
Try pro tools lol😂
what is a daw??? and I just want a fun software to make a bit of music like a beat pad...
I have a Mac but I can't stand GarageBand, it's not actually that intuitive. My kid likes it but I'd give it a 4
I mean it is free!
Any DAW only available to on OS should automatically be disqualified from any list.

Ableton is confusing and is not easy to use.
SOUNDTRAP!!!!!
I dont like Reaper,I hate FL Studio,the trial version crashed during loading an instrument.So its not a good sign.I'm staying with Studio One.Easiest for me.

you should get renoise
Professional means nothing... i know guys that have paid top dollar for DAWS and production sucks..
They lack understanding of arrangements, production quality...very low music "theory" (which is e term i hate)..
But.. fact is.. get a DAW and master it..!!
I've been using FL faithfully since version 2...so I'm a professional.. classically, piano trained at a music conservatory played saxophone and drums..at the age of 8 yo...
Spend your money on learning the instrument(s) you want to master..
Learn what makes a song a classic...(tones, intrument selections, sonic depths, syllable counts within 4 bars)
Ready sheet music.. understand chords how to marry chords.. when to clash tones..
The best producers know these little things and pay attention to them..
Finally.. make the music for you to love 1st.. if you love it 1st.. and you don't care what people think..
There are over 4 billion people on this blue ball..
You only need 0.005 to like it!!..
But you gotta love it. !!
Good luck to you all... and let's make music😊

FL Studio is useless when free. You can't do shit in it
It's try before you buy, on purpose
That’s not true at all, I released so many tracks for years before I even learned about the 7 day free trial

Dude hates Studio one cuz its the easiest DAW to learn for beginners.

Bruh...
Then which one would you suggest for WINDOWS!??!?!?!?
😂😂😂😂😂
You apple people crack me up. Lol
another dude reviewing a music making software and showed NO SAMPLE AT ALL of how it sounds..
Unless you're talking about the stock presets and libraries, the sounds won't differ at all! They'll come from you! You might have more luck searching "stock libraries of X DAW" if you want some more ideas on how their instruments sound
Thumbs down. He should have said that this was Apple bullshit in the beginning.
Yeah, sure, FL Studio, Ableton and Reaper are definitely Apple products 👍
Haha this ⬆️
u obviously didnt watch the video when he said most of these were also for windows lmao
And why is Apple shit?! I learned computers intuitive with no teacher in the 90s with Macs and it was a fantastic easy entry into it. Then I changed later to PCs, and this was first a downfall ;)
My brother is musician and producer and he swears, Apple is much more stable and faster in all than Windows. Never problems with drivers or incompatibilities.
