i dont make a lot of beats cuz my brotha is the beat maker for me but
Fruity is good at making beats --- if you know what u doin u can make some hot shit
but i prefer reason 2.0 over fruity though---they both dope programs though
more options and if u use recycle 2.0 too u can sample---change the tempo---equalize, etc then export to reason
and since i got a keyboard and drum machine i use midi to play the shit out

like the producer cat who i be workin wit got all that expensive hardware but he still use reason and fruity sometimes lol

like it dont matter what u use yo... u can make hot shit with anything
