what do i need to produce techno music?
I have no experience in music production. I am looking to produce techno music but I have no idea what to buy. What is the difference between an audio mixer and a beat machine? and what do i need?
Best bet is to start off with some music production software programs, such as Cubase (http://www.steinberg.net/en/home.html) or Fruity Loops (http://flstudio.image-line.com/) – there are many different ones on the market and it is down to personal preference I guess. A good desktop PC with a lot of RAM and some good speakers is also a big help.

Beat machine – Hmm. I guess it can be best described as ‘… a tracking system that measures the rate of the number of beats. This rate is translated to a beats per minute (BPM) value that is then applied to a number of different applications, such as the automatic generation of a playlist based on the impact & stride of step or the synchronization of electronic and acoustic instruments in live musical performance settings.’
Hope this helps
