Villainelle Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Under what circumstances would I want to switch FROM fl? Once they iron the bugs out, you won't need to "switch from" FL at all...when FL supports Rewire properly, you'll be able to simply load Reason into it like a VST. Best of both worlds.

Zellfreid Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Anyone know where I can grab a pack of free trance (or electronica related) soundfonts? Preferably ZIPed and under 10MB. Thanks, ...ƒreid I'm using it in FL Studio (4.0 I believe...). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get fatter sounds out of them than with soundfonts. I'd only suggest soundfonts for more rock/jazz/orchestra based productions (but then I'd suggest you purchase Gigasampler when you have the money to purchase it.)

richter Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 I like these quite a bit: http://www.novakill.com/killerz.htm Though they REALLY put a processing strain on FL. I've got one project that uses three of these simultaneously and it pops and fizzles like a bastard. Question: From what I've read about gigasampling, it sounds like it's just samples (.wav's)? Or is it something akin to soundfonts that may or may not be compatible with given software? Basically, does gigasampling work with FL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rellik Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Really? You like the Killerz series? I personally hate them... they make some pretty cool sounds, but they're worth nothing to me in the mix. I guess I could work harder to make them fit in, though. If you already have Crystal, then I'd recommend... hey, aren't there already a few threads like this? Instead of doing my usual big synth list, I'll just tell you to check out Synth 1, SoloString, SuperWave P8, Lollapalooza (however you spell it), PhobiaStation, Rogue (those last two are related, but still very different), and Discovery (not free... but if any synth is worth paying for, Discovery is, IMO).

Rellik Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Arg... Ok. Here's what I'm trying to do. I need to get *NOTATION* from several of my older songs. I've been trying to save the whole thing as a MIDI and open it up with my notator, and it gets as far as having the first three VST synths I'm using to show up, but it only has those 3 channels, with no notation. I'm using Cakewalk Music Creator 2002, btw, if that matters, and it's not just a FL problem. Should I ... should I just make a whole lot of MIDI Out's and copy the piano rolls onto them? Would that make it work? I mean... this is pretty important. I just hope I don't have to resort to just completely redoing everything by hand in the MIDI Notator. So if anyone has any ideas, I would really appreciate your help and input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rellik Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 Alright. I fixed it. =D Turns out there's a really helpful Macro called "Prepare for Midi Exportation." I used it, it's all fine now. If anyone asks this again, make sure that they are told, if I'm not here... I would hate to not have found this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*MP*Evil_Cartman Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 I have a problem: i have this song. Somehow when i change the tempo, it resets when i export or stop the file from playing.

KakTheInfected Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Here's a very simple question: How can I use a microphone to record audio in FL?

Xelebes Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Delay is the technical term for echo in music electronics. Use it in your sound mixer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KakTheInfected Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 You serious? I've been using other software but it has nowhere near as many options as FL has and recording everything in that and bringing it over to FL would be a fucking pain in the ass... Other than suggesting I use something else, do you actually know how to do it in FL just so I can try it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicole Adams Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 How do you add 32nd notes in FL Studio's piano roll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xelebes Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 This is the suckiest part about FruityLoops apart from the recording from line in or whatever. Here, I suggest using a notation software to implement them.... but... you can double click them. Set length to 12. For the off step note, set the starting note to start at 12 and lebth at 12 ticks. (All of these are in ticks, not in steps (which is the middle one) or bars (which is the number on the left... or the first number...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares if it is not all-in-one. At least you got some dedicated software there for recording material, which is more advisable than an all in one. Just think of graphics. You use Maya to create 3D drawings, but I'd certainly hope you don't use it for capturing photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xelebes Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 Um... use Noteworthy Composer... much easier to figure out what you are doing anyways. I never try to set 32nd notes in Fruity so my wordins may be a bit unfinished... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_epsilon_ Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 for some reason, none of the samples in my fl 4 studio work, i've tried everything to correct it, chose different output sources and still nothing...anyone know the problem or know where i can get a working copy...

Beatdrop Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 Shadow's completely right and Xelebes is completely wrong in this case. The menu that you see in the image above is the Snap-To menu, and sets what note length FL sticks in by default when you draw a note into the piano roll. One step is 24 ticks, a 1/2 step (typically a 32nd note) is 12 ticks, and a 1/4 step (typically a 64th note) is 6 ticks. 128th notes, following suit, are 3 ticks. I very very very very very very very rarely use the method of double-clicking on individual notes to fix their lengths. I mess with the Snap-To drop-down menu an average of 5123157628025 times in the making of each song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
