Pick up a copy of Pro Tools and use it as the main multitrack recording software. You can import your drum patterns from Fruity Loops to Pro Tools. Then record your vocals on Pro Tools. You can use some of their included plugins for reverb on your vocals. If you wish to expand your plugin selection, you can get a whole lot more plugins with something like the Pro Tools Factory Bundle Pro http://cgi.ebay.com/Pro-Tools-Producers-Factory-PRO-Bundle-NEW_W0QQitemZ260081902550QQihZ016QQcategoryZ41786QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItem There are plenty of great sounding mics available: Neumann, Sontronics, Shure, AKG, Apex etc. You can find a nice selection at http://www.proaudioforless.com Which you choose both depends on your budget and voice characteristics. Then you should get some type of acoustic treatment to eleminate some of the unwanted ambience of the room you're recording vocals in. See the http://www.auralex.com website for ideas. There's also a great article on setting up your home recording studio here: http://www.articlecube.com/Article/How-To-Build-A-Home-Recording-Studio/49379 Hope this helps. Good luck!<br><b>References : </b><br> I recommend continuing to use Fruity Loops for your drum patterns. Pick up a copy of Pro Tools and use it as the main multitrack recording software.
