Some questions for everyone that is reading this, how did you learn how to make music on AudioTool and how long did it take you?
Was is easy? Was it hard? Was is both?
What were the steps you've taken to learn most about what things do on this amazing music-making app and how do you know what you need to do to make your music hit?
If so then mind sharing any tips and tricks that would not only help me but help other people that is perusing music?

it's been 9 years and i haven't stopped learning. i've heard of people making music for 20 years and they also don't stop learning. you can never truly finish learning anything. but how i started my first steps was just by remixing other people's tracks to see how they do their things, but if you do this be prepared to also learn other artist's mistakes ;-) its always hard to learn anything.
my advice for you would be to figure out why you even want to make music for the first place and then go from there. for 9 years i have decided to strictly only have fun making music and do it all for myself but now this goalpost has changed a few months ago to create real art. finding out why you want to make music really helps in my opinion since it helps you focus on doing what you love, and ultimately i think that is what is most important, as long as you are having the most fun with what you are doing, you don't need to learn everything if you don't truly want to. i didn't, and so i didn't learn anything. now i'm trying to learn more stuff!
it takes a long time to master music, so just keep working on yourself and remember to have fun!

Thank you for the inspiring and informative info yito and kurp. I hope I can make it big one day.

To this, I just want to add: Don't be afraid of change. Your definition of what art is and what you want to create will change constantly. Stay curious and keep exploring even if some technique, sound and such seems illogical. Trust your own ears. Only rarely will what you see in the waveform, or the arrangement be more significant than what you're hearing.

I think out of what little I have learned from my three weeks of Audiotool is to not overthink things. Keeping it simple means it stays good.
