    I made BEATS on the PLAYSTATION and THIS happened
    In this video we are going to talk about Music 2000 - or MTV Music Generator if you are from the US - a piece of music production software for the original playstation or PS 1 / PSx . I initially bought this late 90s console digital audio workstation for the show Bad Gear only to find out that literally no one hates it.
    It was not only the first music creation tool for an entire generation of Crash Bandicoot and Tekken 3 - playing nerds, it also comes with all the goofy graphics and weird limitations of a modern groovebox.

    Music 2000 is how I got into music production, at least as a long-term hobby. Me and a mate at the time spent days painstakingly sampling individual drum hits, breakbeats, reeses and hoovers in an attempt to make the best Drum & Bass and Hardcore the world had ever seen, only for the samples to be completely corrupted on reload the next day. I loved every second of it.

      OMFG dude, memories of playing PSX games like Road Rash and shit with my friends as an alcoholic when dropping out of high school at like 14-15 years old. We played this album EVERY fucking day after I stole it. I used to "smuggle" hard liquor at school (as an "athlete") and then the next day had rugby practice and shit too. Avoid licorice sambuca (it's horrible). Rugby practice is pretty harsh if you have a hangover from sharing 4 bottles of 40%+ liquor the previous night.

    My very first DAW was MUSIC on the Official PS Magazine demo disc. From there I "evolved" to Music 3000 on PS2, which allowed me to actually make money from music by doing commission work for local theater group and dancers. Then I graduated to FL Studio and I've been on that since 2006. Humble beginnings, and hearing those samples and cheesy guitar loops again brings a wave of nostalgia.
    EDIT: Also, I just have to mention: Making music while holding a gamepad just feels so right. It was great on PS1 and PS2, and it's awesome on Nerdseq, and I wish there was a way to use a gaming controller in FL Studio.

      If you like using a gamepad, I just started playing with Korg Gadget on the Switch. I got it for my commute to my studio, but it actually has great vintage synth engines! I love the Oberheim emulation. The drums are okay, but there isn't enough processing to really get deep with them. They're passable but not great. Still good fun though.
      The only problem is that you can't render audio to the SD card because of Nintendo, but I've heard you can transfer your projects to iOS Korg Gadget via QR code if you want. For me the headphone output is passable if I just want a loop or two and the noise floor isn't going to be a problem (it isn't as god-awful as I expected tbh).
      Oh, and Nintendo also doesn't allow USB MIDI controllers either, but you can use a QWERTY keyboard lol.
      But yes sequencing in a piano roll with a game controller is awesome.
      It is really good fun if you already have a Switch.

    Noisetracker and OctaMed on the Commodore A1000 is where I started.
    By the time Music 2000 came out, I was already proficient in several trackers on the PC
    I used to think that Music 2000 was a bit of a toy, until one of my friends demonstrated it to me.
    IT ACTUALLY HAD EFFECTS and it sounded half decent!
    That reverb!!!
    Trackers didn't even have a reverb, and you'd have to simulate most other effects using tricks that usually involved taking up more than one channel.
    If you wanted reverb on a sample though, you'd have to load it in to a separate audio editor like Sound Forge, and add a reverb manually.
    To be honest, I don't miss making music using trackers. I am too spoilt by the multitude of VST's and features available in today's DAWS.

      It was cheap, and that was the main reason it was used in low end sound cards.
      Like I said, I worked with samples on the Amiga originally, and the YMF/OPL series just sounded completely inferior in every way.

    Dude I was telling a friend about this program today at work. I use to spend hours on Music, programming drums for my first punk band 🫶🏻😂. I had the original “Music” before music2000, I think the first one came out a year or 2 before music 200. I also tried making Jungle, DNB, Techno… hiphop beats, rock tunes, you name it even metal 🤘🏻lol. I miss it dude. Thanks for this amazing nostalgic video 🙏🏻 love it 😁

      I remember when I used to steal demo CDs stuck to magazines coz, good times. Never had the opportunity to steal a PSX though. I'll admit that I once stole an Offspring CD from a place named Musica. I put it in my pants so the detector thing wouldn't detect it (just like my tiny penis) and walked straight, aligned, through that detector (it functions much like a microscope, just about the only way my penis can be identified, but just like a microscope, those detector things also failed). You remember those detector things in shops? I bought a $1.5 EP of "Springbok Nude girls" and was like "Yeah I'm also getting this for free", regarding the Offspring CD (Ixnay On The Hombre, which...ironically was played almost every day on a PSX along with my friends while we were already alcoholics in high school). Worked like a charm. Bro tip.

MTV music generator was the bomb, and a great way to learn arranging, DAW midi style notes and velocity placement, and i actually made quite a few tracks until i got my first real piece of gear in 2003, the Emu XL7.
    Its great to see that you too started laying the crap out of things. i remember running tons of drumloops in parallel ⭐👍🙂
    Also, i remembered burning the tracks on CDs so the PC version definitely had an export function. I want to remember it had Midi too, but i didn't have any interface.

    I'll tell you the program that got me into music. It was called Making Waves. All you did was load in a sample. Then you manually clicked the little tiny arrows till it was at 1.0 or 2.0 or 4.0 and load loops into it. Then all you did was drag your mouse across the screen and it would just draw in loops up to about 32 channels on the screen. Nothing more than pan and volume per channel. Just draw big dots across the screen. A dash is a longer sample filling an area which you can interupt. You can't shorten a sample. You can make composition in real-time. What a blast. To cheap to pay for a license sadly. Remixed Doggy Style and taped it rather than buy a copy.

I remember thinking it was going to be like Mario Paint's music maker, but it was so much more than that. We lost something nowadays, we just don't get this level of outside the box thinking anymore at least no in the game space. The closest we have now is Dreams which also has an amazing music maker/editor in it. There is a whole community sharing their music on the Dreams servers, but sadly it looks like that game is sunsetting soon.
