Advice? (honestly anything)

I've made a couple of "songs", but I honestly am just completely new to all of this and SUPER confused...if anybody has any helpful tips or advice about making better music I would totally appreciate anything.

You're making amazing strides with your work in a short period of time! I'd recommend using some of the FX boxes a bit more to brighten up and add interest to your sounds. Perhaps some eq work too

only thing i could tell you is just look at youtube for some audiotool tutorials, although, there are not alot of them so i recommend just going to the user GCMan and looking at his videos. They're old but they helped me learn the basic and there is also infyuthsion, who also makes tutorials aswell.

the audiotool homepage should also show you the new updated tutorial (if you didn't see). Lastly, just remix other people's music and start making some friends here. you'll feel close at home when you are here. just don't think about how many people to attract and get followers, just make what you like and surely, there will be people who will like your music and grow with you!

that's about it.

Mess with anything and everything you can. Most functions of things can be found out just by messing with the numbers and abusing them. I'd suggest getting creative with effect chains too, because you can produce some pretty unique sounds that way

Cool. Is there some kind of guide or something that I could look at to figure out what all of the little dials and numbers do on the devices?

Then again, the way things are described in the manual sometimes aren't so clear, especially for beginners. So reading the manual is good, but if you're a hands-on learner like me, messing with the interactive bits one at a time and observing what happens is a good way to solidify your understanding
