OverCoat Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I converted it already, and I can use it via fl studio 6, but I only can use cello-sound from Piano roll. What about the other sounds? Click on the orange instrument name on the Soundfont Player panel. You don't see a big list of instruments? How big is the file? Did you try redownloading it from a different source?

prophetik music Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 so, i've been having a timing issue wuth FL6. i've totally sync'd up my saxophone in audacity with a wave of the project i'm working on, and everything sounds great. so i load the sax part into FL6 to do the mastering, get it so it starts at the right time, and almost immediately it's obvious that the sax is a few beats per minute behind the original file. why is this, and what can I do to get it back in time?

zircon Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Make sure there's no time stretching occuring in the FL sampler (set all the knobs to "Reset" or "None"). Otherwise there should be no reason that would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise there should be no reason that would happen. done. it's still winding up being a little shorter. would you suggest trying to timestretch it to the right time? like i said, it's saxophone parts...would that mess up the vibrato i've used?

Shadix Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Ehh, a few questions actually (Kinda sucks that the threads don't work, but then again this topic is 4 years old) :E How do you go about automating an entire channel so that there can be deviations in the pattern for dynamics without having to create a new pattern? Also, does anyone know of any good recently made tutorials (other than Zircon's wonderful series) on mastering in FL and how to make digital synthesis sound good? Edit: I forgot my most important question :E. How the heck do you get the piano roll to work with a keyboard controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmegaDonut Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Eh, Prophet, go easy on the guy. There's an awful lot of the thread to search. Besides, I think this is more of a place just to post your questions just so they don't clutter up the rest of the ReMixing forum, rather than a "all the answers are in here, somewhere" thread. I think things would be rather inconvenient if it were the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadix Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I'm not seeing it, I have done that... Thats how I recorded to the step sequencer. The issue is not that I can't get the keyboard to work with FL, but that I don't know how to make the Keyboard useful in the Piano Roll. Attempting to record doesn't work as everything recorded attempts to go directly to the Step Sequencer instead of the PR. Basically, how do I change the focus to the piano roll, because clearly clicking on it isn't the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverCoat Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Basically, how do I change the focus to the piano roll, because clearly clicking on it isn't the answer. Hit F10 and look at your MIDI options. I think you have "Record to Step Sequencer" enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synth Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 How do I do slides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splunkle Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 How do I do slides? Easy. You can only do them with generators that suuport them, but most of the naives synths and samplers do, except the TS404. Anyways, to make a slide, go into the piano roll. First, draw the note you wat to start at. Then click the slide button, which is the funny thing near the top left corner with a triangle in a corner. Then draw the slide at the note you want to slide to, starting from when you want to start sliding, and ending when you want to the slide to end. Easy, da? If you can't find the slide button go look at the Help file. Slides are under piano roll, if I remember right. They also show you how to do more funky stuff, like sliding multiple notes, sliding some notes but not others, and so forth. How do you go about automating an entire channel so that there can be deviations in the pattern for dynamics without having to create a new pattern? Not entirely sure what you mean here. Dynamics is a whole range of things, like velocity, peak volume, RMS volume, Compression, etc. Also, you dont automate channels. You automate Knobs and Sliders. Could you re-phrase your question so its clearer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zer0 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Sorry for this, but I need to ask few newbien00b questions again 1) Is it possible to switch tempo among a song? 2) How to make something crescendo-like thingy? 3) That slide thing, well I got it but when I use it the note will not work...

Chavous Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Zer0- Right click and: That is the tempo question. The volume works the same way, just right-click on the "volume" knob on the channel. It's a very useful function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
