So I have been casually using Linux Multimedia Studio, or LMMS, since 2010. It is a really good free and open source alternative to FruityLoops.
I won't go detailing how great this tool is for digitally creating your music as I am assuming you bump onto this post already knowing what LMMS is.
One issue of this tool on Windows is that LMMS keeps distorting your (if I may) compositions, adding buzz and other weirdness to your music.
The problem is even added on its Troubleshooting page but it is still currently unanswered as of this post.
Luckily, the answer is actually already on its Forums posted by a fellow LMMS user, darkill. And it's just waiting for someone to add it on LMMS' Wiki.
For archiving purposes (just in case the forums and/or the wiki won't be accessible), let me state the steps here on this post.
Open DirectX Diagnostic Tool
Happy composing!

Open DirectX Diagnostic Tool
- Open a Command Prompt
- Type-in: dxdiag
- Check the tabs with labels "Sound1", "Sound2", etc.
- Check for the Driver's name (mine is STWRT.SYS)
- Take note of this now do the next steps
- Run our favorite digital music authoring tool called LMMS :)
- Go to Edit -> Settings
- Now goto Audio Settings
- Change the Audio Interface to SDL (Simple DirectMedia Layer)
- Then specify your Driver's Name of your Audio Device on Settings for SDL
Happy composing!
