Ummm *whisles* I create hiphop stuff in an hour or so. Nowhere near as coplex.
The hardest part i find is the drum beat not the actual tune.
i can create soemthing in an hour or so, HipHop realy isnt that difficult.. Get a simple beat, Add a tad of distortion; mix it up (beatslicer "roxxxxorrrrrrrreeezzz". No. i cant be bothered to do numbers.)
Of course, it takes a while to learn fruityloops as in depth as some do. I can throw out a track in an hour, yes, but to do that, no matter what you use to create it, you lose quality and heart. Spend a few horus a day for a few weeks on a track to finish it. Thats what I do.
I've been using fruity loops for 4 + years and still learning it's nuances.
4 years ago it was barely a music sequencer. I been around that long with it too. Got my free copy from college. Pretty much know it all now :/ got to use the new automation clips yet though.
