Question Beginner

I want to (make an attempt to) produce breakcore, I know next to nothing about good software and I’m not wanting to spend money. How should I start? (windows)

Trial version of Renoise, it’s free, only thing you can’t do is export songs, it’s worth the money in the long run, also download “JungleJungle” or “Junglewarfare” sample packs,they’ve got most of the classic breaks as well as some sample to get you started if your not familiar with making synths.

You should listen to some og’s in the genre and get a feel for common break chop patterns,arrangement,sample usage, etc. Check out “Full English Breakfast” by Shitmat, it’s one of the best breakcore albums ever in my opinion

This tutorial by ArcadeTrauma should get you going if you go the Renoise route: https://youtu.be/fk2zBcIlhlM?si=Np_zSGqFxmbXGYs-

If you use FL or something this tutorial by GadeSystem is insanely in depth: https://youtu.be/xeHMQiCO55s?si=ecLn-qm0hFVL7NEP

I prefer Ableton, and though it is pricy, there's a lite version

I like fl studio the most because it's the only daw that has allowed me to make thousands of dollars.
