i feel like i'm AWFUL at music related crap ghjghgjhd i really love music but like. i know literally nothing about how to make things Good and i only have garageband for my fricking iphone which is really tedious to use and i just end up getting frustrated and give up. sure people can actually make good stuff with garageband on their phones but i feel like i'm not one of those people + i'm not patient with myself so i just end up smashing the keys on the piano and make nothing. at least nothing good, or nothing i end up keeping. i make a beat and then i listen to it and i realize that it's Garbage!!!!!!!!!!
a big part of this is whether your keyboard knows the difference between when you smash hard and when you smash soft. phones don't have this, so if you just get even a very small midi controller keyboard, and hook it to your phone and use that. the loud/soft note thing is a big deal. if you don't have that you're gonna have a bad time
