Hi, my 1st post here.
I have NO experience with keyboards or any electronic instruments, even amplified acoustic. I can play the tin whistle a bit & the Hurdy Gurdy, strum a guitar. That's about it.
Some time ago I switched to Linux & as part of that loaded LMMS as I wanted to compose music without buying a synth, my aim was to try my hand at Tangerine Dream style music - or more specifically Statosfear & Richochet which are my all time favourite pieces of music.
I've played about with LMMS for hours & not got very far. I'm now looking at buying a synth such as Novation x-station or Roland JD-XI as they seam a little more intuitive to use but don't know where to start regarding how I'd 'record' or build a complete track.
I've spent hours looking on Ytube at tutorials which don't seam to cover my position but suspect I'm using the wrong search terms.
SO PLEASE HELP BEFORE MY HEAD IMPLODES - please.
