mDuo13 Posted November 30, 2002 Share Posted November 30, 2002 okay, I downloaded a bunch of free soundfonts for my fruityloops full, but for some reason whenever I try to use soundfonts and then save my work, it alerts me that "some of the plugins you have used are demos" and it deletes all the channels with soundfonts before saving it. Is there something wrong with my FL, and is there a way around this other than changing the soundfont channels into other channels until I am ready to export?

lazygecko Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Buy the full soundfont plugin, or simply crack it. It's around $30 I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM Lee Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 i just want to say that i only made one remix using soundfonts without the sf player and i remember it was one of my best mixes to date but because when i saved and lost stuff i was left with just a snare channel that used a snare wav. I was very very very pissed off trust me. That was one of the worst days of my life i swear. You know those days when you get started on a song in the mornign and you just get hooked and you dont finish until about 16 hours later? well yeah all that work just "GONE!" i hated fruity on that day, i really did. But life goes on and mixes come and go. I just hope noone else has to go through such a tragedy for it would really be a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcubez Posted December 1, 2002 Share Posted December 1, 2002 Whenever I add a plugin I always try to save the song to make sure it's not a demo version of the plugin....and look at the top toolbar of the plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blak_Omen Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Another crazy question - thanks for all the great help so far, but I'm a long way from being remotely good at Fruity Loops. Okay, next question/problem - Midi doesn't work properly. You know those little orange lights that are supposed to light up to signify the beat? They don't light up properly, they kind of jump...I can't describe it but suffice to say that it doesn't work very well. As a result the rhythms in Midi are never the same as what I put in to Fruity Loops. Anyone have a solution for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatdrop Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 In the MIDI Options window, check to see what you have set for your Master Sync, and then make sure that under the Options tab, "Enable MIDI Master Sync" is checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blak_Omen Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 It is checked, and the same problem is still occuring... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM Lee Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 does your computer have a lot of ram? maybe it is just having a hard time processing the information sometimes and that is causing the skipping effect. Also, this goes along with that, make sure and restart your computer once in a while when you are mixing, this gives your computer all its free memory back. Often when i have mixed all day my computer is slow as shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blak_Omen Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 256 Ram, and I'm on Windows XP...Fruity Loops does the same thing whether I run it as the first program upon startup, or the last thing. I tried restarting, and it still does the skippy thing. ^^" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM Lee Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 that really sucks... sorry that this doesnt help, but i feel your pain (do you have a bruise on your arm too?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blak_Omen Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 It just means that I can't use midi.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatdrop Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 What soundcard do you have? It's very possible that your soundcard's synthesizer is just a total piece of shit and that's all. But if that's not it, I have no idea what the problem is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcubez Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Dude in the midi settings on your computer make sure the port is enabled to the same port on your midi channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captcapper Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 uhhh anyone know how to make a decent scratching effect in fruityloops 3.0. the only thing i can think of is to get a scratching sf and use that but is there a way to do it with effect or something?

DM Lee Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 yeah how do you use the built in scratcher in fruity? i mean i can manually mess with a sound effect during a song, but i cant put it in directly and control it or anything, i dont think i would have much se for scratching since its not my style, but sometimes i am just like, yeah i need a scratch there. how do you use the fruity scratch thingy?

Beatdrop Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 You should be asking AE about this. He does incredible things with it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcubez Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 AE uses fruity loops? tight. I love his mixes. He must also know how to use the Zero-X beatslicer..... *O AEEEEEEEEE!!!* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM Lee Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 xero x beatslicer? is that in fruity loops??? if it is i really need to find out about it. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcubez Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 Yeah it is. It's that beatslicer generator. It's only a demo but you can buy the full for like 30$ (or crack it, i have yet to find a crack for it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatdrop Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 You didn't know AE uses FL? He's only been using it, like, forever AE uses CoolEdit to chop up his beats, apparently. He does it the manual way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM Lee Posted December 6, 2002 Share Posted December 6, 2002 hey i have cool edit too, maybe i should start chopping stuff up in there... hmmmmm. I dont think i will buy the beatslicer, oh well. i still want to learn the fruity scratcher though, anyone know of a tutorial for it? I looked for about three hours last night.
