Wizoo Announces Three New Quick Start Guides
February 13, 2003
Wizoo continue their Quick Start series of beginners' guides with three new titles: "Windows XP Music Studio", "Cakewalk Home Studio", and "Fruityloops".
"Windows XP Music Studio" by Mark Wherry is aimed at anyone who wants to get started making music with Windows XP, explaining the hardware and software you need - but most importantly, how to use it. The accompanying CD-ROM contains all the demo software and freeware needed to turn your PC into a fully-blown digital music studio for recording, playing with software synths, sequencing and more.
"Cakewalk Home Studio" by world-authority Craig Anderton caters for those interested in the entry-level version of Cakewalk's professional Sonar music production software. Home Studio provides conventional MIDI and digital audio recording, but also offers loop-based features for DJ, groove, and soundtrack projects. This book features a CD-ROM packed with video tutorials, learn-by-doing examples, Cakewalk program demos, a free software synthesizer, and a selection of exclusive guitar and drum loops.
Last but not least, "Fruityloops" by former Keyboard US senior editor Jim Aikin guides readers through creating their own sounds, beats, and songs in Fruityloops, a new kind of music application featuring a sophisticated pattern-based sequencer, an arsenal of software-based synthesizers, and a full set of high-quality effects. If you want to get started making techno, dance, drum 'n' bass, or any other style of electronic music, this book is the perfect solution. The included CD-ROM offers fully-functional trial versions of Fruityloops, FruityTracks, EZ-Editor, and SimSynth, plus song and mp3 music files to accompany the hands-on tutorials.
