prophetik music

hey aetherius, can you update the original post with who's in, who's maybe, who's not, who's doing what, etc? just curious. edit 900 w00t

i can do vocals, also, if you need them. I've got a lower voice, but i can still help out. also, I can do bass guitar, if we so feel the urge.

didn't this thread die yet?

go onto the irc channel and Epo or Iggy will send them to you. thats how I got them.

thank you for actually reading the first post, buddy. [/sarcasm]

fair enough.

hey, i'm not TheProphecy, i'm The Prophet of Mephisto. lol. i'm just starting my wip right now. i'm hoping to make something along the lines of a sonata for saxophone accompanied by strings, padsynths and piano...it doens't sound like much on paper, but think some of ES Posthumus's slower stuff. for now. god knows what its gonna be when i'm done. i'll post a wip soon.

Just in case you don't know this: Change from "pattern" mode" to "song mode" by clicking the two lights next to the play button That way it plays the entire playlist instead of just the selected pattern. daa! the L bitton does the same thing. ZOMG 800 - took me long enough.

lol. make sure the playlist is the big grid...lol. in making a loop, you create something called a pattern. using the playlist, you can arrange a bunch of these different patterns into a song by clicking them into the grid. the top has measure numbers, and the left has pattern numbers. that make sense? next time, search the thread, n00b.

there are times when i've found that having an eq with more bands to be something i'd like to have. granted, not all the time, but there are times when i'd like it. using more than one is irritating because you haVe to figure out what is where (don't forget you need one slider at the low end for bass rolloff and one to be at the high end for high rolloff) so you wind up with competing freqs. i just would rather having one with more than seven.

the reason i asked about a more flexible eq is because i want to to go through and apply an eq with more than just seven sliders. when i use my friend's software, he uses an eq plugin that has 36 sliders...in other words, he uses an EQ that allows for pinpoint control of the sound that he wants to create for the final track.

Agreed. I still recommend you import it to an external audio editor for post-production. eh. you can do it all in FL if you wanted to. granted, its tough getting a good full eq done on the whole piece, but thats a problem in general, i've found. or does someone know of a good free software that has a really nice eq on it? i don't like the lack of flexibility that the fruity one has.

this hasn't been posted in in a long time. does that mean n00bs started searching the thread?

Look, I have a first note that is 12 steps long, and starts on the 1st step. 2nd note, 4 steps long, starts on 4rd step. I use FL preset sound Strings->STR_GTF_C1 (non looped bass sample with a slow decay). When I play that track with Cut Itself ON the 2nd note simply cuts the previous one and I only hear the 2nd note. When I turn OFF Cut Itself, 2nd note sums with the sound of the previous, making it all louder. So again I turn ON Cut Itself, but also I set my own ADSR setting in the Channel Setting->INS->VOL. I set min att, min hold, min dec, max sus, min rel (so sound is heard only during the duration of the note). When I play that track again, the sounds are summed (louder) and I hear the 1st note playing after the 2nd note. Is this more clearer now? OH. yeah, thats a lot better. so you basically want two notes playing, and you want it to stay the same volume, right? don't use the asdr for something like this - its more for articulated passages and looped notes that have to be an exact length, like in padded stuff. you're going to have to automate the volume on the whole thing to get it to stay one uniform volume. i'm not sure why you'd want to do that since it'll sound a little wierd - its not a natural sound to hear that, specially down low, but whatever. automation is the way to go - just edit events and set the channel volume at half of what it is now when it reaches that note, then pop it up back to normal at the end of the second note. is that what you needed?

what?

easy. one of the things that is included is a tutorial on the slicer. look around in your fruity directory to see where it s to open it up. it explains everything - its not as complicated as it looks.

after some deciphering... why wouldn't you use the slicer? i guess i don't understand why you DON"T want to use the best drumtool in Fruity. if you don't want to use it, get a wave editor like Audacity and chop it yourself into pieces. thats the best way. why would you automate volume to slice something?

simple. just 'edit events' on the pitch and adjust stuff in there. or you can do that from the piano roll by changing the bottom section from velocity to 'channel pitch'. its a little tedious, but its how its done.

welcome! remember, sentance structure (aka USAGE) is key.

where could i find something like that? i didn't see one on kvr, unless i'm looking for the wrong thing.

too slow. how can i add vibrato to a soundfont that almost sounds good? it doesn't work to use the edit events window and do it through there cause its too big of an adjustment to automatically apply an LFO to the whole thing. it tries to go based on 20 cents, not 6 or 7 cents. whats a way to apply vib. to a simple violin sf?

i'm looking for a full, rich, solo violin, preferably with vibrato. anyone know a good place to get a realistic one? the squidfont stuff really doesn't cut it thanks.

can anyone email me the entire folder that the beatslicer is in? mine is corrupted and doesn't work. so i can't use drumloops thanks.

uh, search the thread, n00b. automation is basically just when you say 'hey computer do THIS at THIS time on THIS specific pattern track'. you NEED to remember that automation isn't global - it applies to certain tracks ONLY - the one thats active when you apply it. try this. rightclick on the volume know of the track you want to edit. select 'edit events' - this is automation in general. you can edit almost anything like this. click once on this where you want the first volume to be - by looking up at the status bar just under the filebar, you can see what % your mouse is at. then, after clicking once there and seeing your beautiful volume line (in a nice shade of pink) drag your mouse on a rightclick up to where you want your decrescendo/crescendo to end, at what volume. just remember that you've gotta place it in the right spot, and you can't shift it from side to side like you can an entry in the piano roll. simple, really. peace.

um.. I'm running a hacked copy of FL 4.1 right now (my purchased copy got mysteriously lost about the same time my friend got FL). More than 3/4 of the included samples don't work - in fact, all of them except for the drumsynths don't work. now, if i take the waves, open them in audacity and then export them as waves and use them, they work. why don't my included samples work?
