Hi all,

What tools do you use to make your game music?

Thanks in advance

I'm using MODPLUG composer (free) and MAGIX Music Maker (cheap). Modeplug is a list-oriented tracker that is based on instrument samples that are pitch-tranposed, where Magix is using a drag-n-drop timeline for samples, mainly loops, eg. 4/4 beats snippets.

Both are good for pop and rock sounds, pretty useless for classical music.

Here's a bunch from two weeks ago:

Cubase and hardware synths.

Guitar and Sonic Foundry's Acid

Thank you for your recommendation.

Hi jfk,

It's ok.
Google shows MODPLUG AND MODEPLUG results.

Acid Music 3, though I'm still a noob at it. Since Sony seems to have gone a bit insane lately ("No rootkit for me, thanks, I'm trying to cut down" <g>), I'm glad to have access to the pre-psycho-Sony version originally from Sonic Foundry.

Sound Studio Gold into an XG card, or XG drivers on my laptop.

I use Fruitypoops...er Loops :)

Fruity is a good all rounder all-in-one package and I remember there's a good range of prices to suit all pockets - as they say. I never got on with its sequencer though.

I prefer 'Reason' controlled by a good sequencer like Sonar.

FLstudio Producer Edition

Thank you for your advice.
