Maybe this is a stupid question but I have just started to toy around with any type of music making. I pull a chiptune of an old game and want to do what I think is a good start which is recreating the original tune in FL9 but I seem to be listen to just the openining notes over and over again and not being able to recreate about the same sound. I guess my question is, is there an easier way then trial and error with the piano roll to get what I am trying to do?
