Hello everyone,

I've bought a cheap 49-key midi controller (SE49), and I don't know what to do with it. I've also downloaded an open-source application called 'LMMS' that allows me to make sounds using my keyboard.

The big question is: How should I get started? Should I learn basic piano tunes?

Thanks

Don't know what to do with it? There must have been a reason you bought it..? I think it's fun to play keyboard/piano. Learning some piano songs would probably be a good place to start.

Any software that lets you add VST (or other) synth plugin modules would be
good to play with. LMMS is a good start, as is Reaper (https://www.reaper.fm)
which is a free-to-try audio workstation. If you'd like to try a virtual
modular synthesizer, look into VCV Rack (https://vcvrack.com).

Personally, I do all of my music production in Reason, mainly because of the
'virtual cables' paradigm that it offers. It's not cheap, but is free to use
for 30 days (https://www.reasonstudios.com) and comes bundled with tons of
built-in synths and effects. If you'd like to hear some stuff that Reason
emits, my YouTube channel is at

I've also mostly used Reason and the other Re-suite programs with MIDI.. But at the time I was doing it, FruityLoops was becoming a thing. Do you know if FruityLoops Studio Producer or whatever it's called these days supports MIDI and such? I heard it became all you really need to make music. It works with VSTs, iirc.

There aren't really any other 'Re-suite' programs any more. Reason has been a
full-featured DAW for years now, and I dare say that you could get great
results with only the included devices, without adding any VSTs. Although, I do
love my Neutron and Ozone!

I think Fruityloops became FL-Studio many years back, although I've never used
it.
