Why did I make this book? I made this book because I remember when I first began using Fl Studio (last week of 2016) I was absolutely clueless on where to begin and had zero musical training. I eventually learned on my own through YouTube and Google but it took some years until I fully mastered my own process of making beats. With time I noticed you do not need musical training or even the fancy hardware to begin making beats, all you need is the DAW (laptop/computer), some headphones, and preferably also an audio interface . I also noticed that musical training is not a necessity, sometimes just having the passion for music and the dedication for making beats is all you need.
