You know we dwell in exciting times when anyone with a spot of talent can create, develop and pass out their own music and make it large without having to win a record deal. By merely downloading and studying some software and samples you can go from bedroom DJ to hearing your own tracks being played in nightclubs and getting people coming up to you asking "Hey is this your track?!"
Thus the question is how and where do you begin?
There are so many choices ranking from free to very expensive, evidently free is good but what's the downside? That high-priced big name piece of software looks very good but do you know what most of those wonderful characteristics are and more importantly do you require them?
One thing you can count on is that whether you spend zero or $500 you will be committing some time and effort into picking up music mixer software so how much is your time and elbow grease worth?
There are pros and cons of free and high-ticket software bundles. You need to establish your priorities and special necessities before investing any of your time regardless of money. Ask yourself the following questions:
How easy is it to learn, does it have samples you can use?
Are they royalty clear so you can create tracks that you can sell for money?
Are you equipped to read a 400 page ebook manual before getting started?
Before investing any of your time and endeavour you need your own individual rating system. That is a system of rules that lines up your demands and priorities with what the different selections have to offer.
A good method to achieve this is to draw a table of characteristics and put each option in. That way you can line them up and distinguish each characteristic out of 10.
Then you can make an educated decision about which choice is most suitable for you and will get your music out there being downloaded by your fans and perhaps even bringing you some nice cash as well. It all begins with making the best decision at the start. And that starts with a decent system to properly appraise your choices.

Making A Psytrance Lead In V-station
Section 1: Programming the V-Station (sawtooth) - Skip to the end of the tutorial to hear an example of the finished sound!
1.) Open V-Station on the first preset setting "bass1"
2.) Turn Off the Effects
3.) Turn OSC1 mixer gain to full and the rest completely down.
4.) In the filter section Put Freq to full, and res down
5.) In the Amp Env section move dec & sustain to full and release down
6.) Click the "extra" tab at the top right
7.) In the envolope section put prog level to the maximum
8.) In the Oscillators section put pre-glide to full
9.) in the Portamento section put the time up to about two thirds
Section 2: Applying FilterVST (band pass filter)
1.) Open Filter Vst as an insert on the v-station synth
2.) In the master section find tempo source and select the midi button
3.) In section 1 change the lowpass filter to a band pass filter
4.) Move the frequence up to about 1.0kHz and the Q to about 5%
5.) In the source section click on the 1 button
6.) Move the amount up to about two thirds
7.) In the FG 1 section click the sync to master button amd select a dotted crotchet in the beats section
8.) Go back to the source section and click on the 2 button
9.) In the dest section which currently states FI frequency, change this to F1 Pan and move the amount upto about two thirds
10.) Go to FG 2 and select the sync to master button and leave it on the crotchet
11.) Click on the on button for section 2
12.) In section 2 change the lowpass filter to a High pass filter
13.) Turn the Q down and the freq to 333hz
14.) in the filter routing section select button 6
Section 3: applying CamelCrusher (distortion)
1.) Place Camel Crusher as an insert on the V-Station after the FilterVST and leave on its factory setting. You can download Camel Crusher free from Camel Audio.
Section 4: Applying Delay
1.) Place a delay such as Bionic Delay as an insert on the V-Station after the FilterVST. You can download Bionic Delay free here. A good substitute would be Expert Sleepers Ping Pong.
2.) Choose "ping pong 1/4"
Bionic Delay
Section 5: Suggestions for writing the riff...
1.) As the lead is more of a tonal effect than a melodic tool find a key which sounds good with the track this may not necessarily be the key of the bass (as the portamento is up on the V-Station tone of the notes played has changed)
2.) I find that choppy parts sound great with this lead (reference riff example picture) however this is just one example, all parameters on the filter vst such as the freq position or lfo speeds (FG1/FG2) can be changed to suit the style your after!
3.) Different types of distortion will also change the character for example the harder the distortion the more 'acidy' it sounds and the less you apply the 'squelchier' it'll sound!
