Now, bear with me as we see what each of these software can do. Be ready to walk in the matrix of advanced technology.

​Dr. Drum

For someone who has no idea how beat work and or at the level of skill acquisition, this is the best software for you. May lightning strike me if I am telling a lie but when I first learned about software like this I thought it was just a toy or a joke. Like most people I underestimated it. I thought all along nothing was impressive. But I stopped and thought to myself, why am I being cynical. So, I checked it out because I knew a lot of people are hesitant if it can really make good beats?

So, I finally decided to buy the software together with two-thirds of its upgraded accessories and have it tested with the inclusion of some sounds, my very own sounds and with the additional variation of effects.  After buying and some long waiting moments finding my license key in all the folder of my email (I finally got it in my spam folder), I eventually got it installed and up and running the program on my laptop (it’s compatible with both Mac and PC). I recklessly told myself, what a piece of crap, as soon as it opened. But I was totally wrong. I was just being a stuck up and arrogant. Because as soon as I played and got the hang of it, I realized it had some really incredible potential.

It has a ring to it. I am amazed. Very straightforward and easy to use, too. As I delved into the program I was even more surprised. Although it isn’t the most advanced software I have ever seen in my life, I can significantly use it to bust out some bangers on my fingertips. Now I am being stuck up. I have the best functionality so to speak.

Cons:
1.    Must Draw in Notes – Not Compatible w/ MIDI Keyboards/Controllers
2.    As it is for Beginners, it has No Advanced/Expert-Level Audio Controls
3.    Creativity will come in Handy because of the absence of a Push-Button System
4.    Audio Effects are not Included – Requires Purchase of Expansion
5.    Can’t Use VSTs/AU Plugins
My thoughts to consider buying Dr. Drum only if… 
•    You’re planning to make your own beats but doesn’t have any idea where/how to start
•    You need the help of a program in order for you to make your own backing tracks to jam to
•    You’re just about to begin beat making or hobbyist
•    You are completely clueless about the theory of music or making music
•    You have a desire to produce electronic music quickly and easily (EDM, Hip-Hop/Rap, R&B, DubStep, Trap, Dance, Pop etc.)
•    You used to be an experienced producer and wishes to revive your creativity through the use of a very limited tool
I agree, there are so many options than these in the market, but these are by far the most chosen and would always be pick by the majority honestly. ​

FL Studio

If you have acquired skilled on how music production works, maybe an intermediate level, then consider using FL Studio.  FL Studio was once known as Fruity Loops. As long as you're not a pure beginner, you will definitely adore this software.

There are tons of features and saying that means with just a few clicks of the mouse you can already begin creating your own beats. Ideally for those who don't want to buy their own hardware. All rolled into one as everything can be produced with just the software and your computer.

It also operates on the PC at this period, however, FL Studio is already working on making another version for Mac users as of writing. And so, if you have a Mac, do not fret, you can use Boot Camp to operate this software (Believe me, so many people are already doing this).

Perfect for Majority
This is something that you would truly value and so I highly recommend that you use FL Studios because it’s definitely an amazing discovery of a piece of software, and it’s a great choice for most people who want to be ahead of the pack. With the 4 versions available in the market, most of the beatmakers will have everything at their fingertips to make serious beats without the need of buying hardware.

PC Compatibility
As of now, this software is only compatible for the PC. But then, a version is coming out really soon for the Mac users. Many Mac users still use FL Studio, however, they do it with Boot Camp though. Boot Camp is a tool that easily allows users to install Windows on your Mac.

Extremely Impressive for Complicated Tracks
No fuss, with just a few clicks of the mouse, complicated beasts can readily be produced, and you can start to use in trap music and EDM tracks. In most cases, it’s easy to use – user-friendly but still allows you to create advanced beats.

Unfortunately, it is Not Recommended For...
Audio recording - when you wish to record audio it is best to choose alternative digital audio workstations (DAW). If you want to make any more music outside of the software, then it’s better to go with a software/hardware combined product, not with FL Studio.

Ableton Live 9

If you're a dire Mac user, then you have to choose Ableton Live 9. Ableton Live 9 is a complete solution to creating music which gives you an edge over the rest. 

Purchase the software and download it and you're ready to go. No DVD, not even a USB. It’s that simple. No mess, no fuss! It's both compatible with PC and Mac.  So it's absolutely great for using on your laptop. That's definitely something to think about and consider for those who are planning into buying a new computer for making music.

Another reason many DJs who travel use DAW is because how intuitive the interface is that fits nicely on a laptop screen which can be very essential. If you're clearly without equivocation a beginner, and if you really want a live performance tool, this is a must have and also highly recommended.

Maschine

And if you want a combination of a hardware controller and a software, then consider buying Maschine. Should you want a new fun way to produce tracks and beats effortlessly, then this is perfect for you. It allows you to create beats without making too much effort. The functionality is so immaculate.

With a combined hardware and software system and a built-in audio interface, you have an equipment that can do so much more and is in fact has a lot more of flexibility. A very versatile tool which comes bundled with excellent ways to produce intricate music, beats, melodies and harmonies with so much smooth workflow, no bewildering functions to give you what you really been dreaming of having – the best beat in town! ​
