Hi can anyone tell me the best plugins for making house music


Thanks

 

Just grab some old saucepans, pots, frying pans and cutlery and there you go!
The best house-music!!! LOL! I'm kidding......

You can check Image-Line "PoiZone", "Toxic Biohazard", "Drumaxx", "Groove Machine", ReFX VANGUARD, Sylenth, Native Instruments "Massive" and "Reaktor".

:dancing:

 

The ones above plus Zeta, FM8 and Absynth

 

All of them... Like every single plugin... ;)

Bu the go to ones for me are Sylenth, Massive, Kontakt, Arturia, Predator, Sub bass Boom, Nexus, For effects, Waves, PSP, SPL, Dada, Xfer

That's off the top of my head...

I'm all about samples as well. So get a good sampler. I use logic's EXS24, comes stock with Logic. You can use Kontakt as well.

Vengeance packs for drums to start.

Everybody uses those. So if you wanna sound like a lot of the records you hear, it's a good place to get your drum sounds from.

I'd like to start making more of my own kicks. I'm thinking of getting this guy...
