Many people often consider making their own music difficult or hard to learn, however, making your own music & beats is not only fun, but it can be a very rewarding experience, whether you compose in the privacy of your own studio, or with your own band or musical ensemble. Music first starts in your head. Sometimes you find yourself humming melodies that just pop up from nowhere. It is very important to either write them down or use a recording device, perhaps your smart phone if you have one to record it first so that you won't forget it. This is crucial, because you will definitely forget it if you don't. When you listen to your own favorite music, try to listen carefully to how the arrangements of the songs. When you are using the music software, this will give you a good idea as to what kind of sound to go for. The next thing is to search for the music software.
There are some great software programs available for $60 or less or so that can not only help you to compose and produce your own music, but that also show you how to operate the recording mixers to properly adjust the sound to maximum effectiveness. It will be wise to get a music sequencer. There are also sites that have tutorials and e-lessons on how to learn the functionality and use them. If you are a keyboardist or familiar with keyboards, there are many models that have sequencers built in them. Many music makers like to start with the drums as the starting foundation. There is a ton of great drum beat software available for download. Making a great drum beat is not hard to do, but the key is getting good software that is easy to use. Most software packages can give you sampling of sounds and you can adjust the beats to how you want them to sound. After you lay down your drums, then you want to layer other sounds over them. This is when you record a sound patch (instrument sound) and layer them on top of one another.

For example, record the drum pattern, then the bass line, then the keyboards, then the guitar, then other effects, etc... You will always want multiple tracks so that you can stack them together to get a dynamic sound. Thus your song is made! It might take you a little bit of time to figure out the exact sound patches you want that will be to your liking. Then, depending on your genre of music, you would follow similar steps to record the vocals.
