I have read the tutorial of Zicrons, it explained alot to me, but theres still alot I dont know..

To make a good drum line you must layer them with not only snares, but hihats and others, but when you layer them, is where im dumbfounded. Since im still in the tutorial, I dont think i can add them to a track at all.

So what im asking, is what to do? Should I use the Piano Roll to make neumours drum lines? or go by Bars? with the Bars, your so limited, this is why Im asking, because piano roll seems like a better option.

Im taking this all one step at a time, First stop, Drum lines :-P

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Well, im going to assume, just something simple. Since I only have the FL Demo. for now atleast. Something to get me going and allow me to work of it and start creating some good drumlines.

Basicly, a little guide on a how to, to start me off, and then allow to go from there.

Well, lets go with electronic, If I can get that down, I can focus on acoustic later.

Also, are you able to import VSTs and MIDIs into the demo? if so how O_o?

The term "import" is used for different things (samples, project files). This may seem stupid, but learning the correct terminology makes learning and searching a lot easier.

if so how O_o?
You know they've got an online manual (http://www.flstudio.com/htmlhelp/html/basics_externalplugins.htm), don't you?
