Finally! An FL Studio tutorial that actually helped me out a lot. Thank you!

Helpful advice and a great track demonstration

My man!!! That beat is off the chain!!

good tutorial i agree on the fact that people tend to understimate fl studio for me , its the best daw of all

Hey you are doing a great job bringing back my trust for FL Studio as people have shifted my focus by their critics, eg: fruity loops has bad sound whatsoever...thanks because fl studio is the program i started with and i understand it more then the other softwares

Master is for the whole song. You can link instruments by selecting the Instrument you are using at the moment and pressing right-click at "Insert 1" and pressing "Link selected channels" and than "To this track". If you hold SHIFT you can select multiple instruments. Now you can open at the right side of the Mixer the number 1 till 8. In front of one of these number there is a black box with a white arrow pointing down. Press one of these and here you got the "EQUO" and "Fruity Parametic EQ 2".

If you use FL Studio for the first time it is quite annoying to find all those buttons, but at the far right side of the play button there is a text saying "Click to enable online news". Above this text there are 5 buttons (one is like a piano) and 7 buttons (here is a mic, a question mark, a save option etc.). You need the one with 5 buttons. When you press the 5th button the mixer will open. In the Mixer you can select Master, Insert 1, Insert 2, Insert 3 etc.

i like the vid and i am glad to see someone else who actually knows how to use the mixer in fl. you might want to re upload this vid though cause the video is lagging. it takes like 5 seconds to see what you were talking about somethings out of sync

I do, but only for evaluation purposes, or to counteract the way my headphones play. I don't advise you to make changes to EQ on the master channel unless you are making a mix for a special purpose (for live set or a special speaker setup.

Good Tutorial, helped me to understand abit more what I can do thanx!

Thanks for all your wonderful videos :o) I'd like to see one on compression and limiting or maybe general mixing/mastering strategies... Those things still mystify me and probably others...

Nice! Thank you! I needed this...

Thank you for the tutorial!

fookin awsome! thx alot man helped me alot

got it: on the top of the window let say SNARE u can put a fx channel on it, then in the mixer u can put the effect u want on that separate channel!!

good stuff. very helpful thanks a lot

Thanks this was very useful.

well explained! thx

lol! Nice Background Pic! Know that from school, very useful!

thanks for the video

thaanks bro

@DJSaschAustralia yep there's an instudio vid somewhere around here. You'd be surprised how few clips he actually uses in his tracks. And Deadmau5 used to use FL but he started using Ableton. Idk why either, I use Ableton on the road and it's basically the same capabilities with a few more intuitive compressors.

yes. Plugin Presets-->Effects. EQUO is right there.

Awesome.

Thanks man.

Very helpful.

I juss learnt that you can use the equo to analyse which frequences to cut & boost.

@aCaramel4U I wouldn't put EQUO on the master. If anything, put the para EQ2 on the master simply to do minor shaping or eliminate useless frequencies

@AcePincter How do you know of something is to loud or low? Also what if your sound is muddy or something low makes the other instruments lower?

That "white noise" sound made me jump everytime...

This clip is really very good. However, if you'll try to find Beat Generals on youTube they also have other specific details about this though!

So if I'm screwing around with a sample I've selected in edison, how do I apply any tweaks I might make with EQUO directly to the sampled audio and keep said changes in the step sequencer?

Thanks a lot for this video. Question; How do you do that in Real Time?

Dude Fucking badass man Great Tutorial!

this might be a dumb questions but whats the difference between using the volume knobs vs the mixing board for volume?

You're welcome! :D

2:14 sounded like microsoft flight simulator at a low FPS while trying to view outside the cockpit.

Yeah great tutorial for beginners, you sayd that u use alot of EQ like its a bad thing ur ashamed off LOL :) I think that its a MUST to use eq on every instrument. And btw u almoust killed my ears with that whitenoise :P

thanks for this tutorial! Isn't that a circle of fifths there as background? I have also have one :)

The bassline... what did you use to generate it?

2:03 IT'S ALL GONE PETE TONG

The rest is explained in the video.

Does it work for vocals too

how can i put the EQ on my drums, and not on the hole thing (Drums+Sound etc)...i mean only the Drums

I'd rate this 5 stars but the sound wasn't in sync after a while and i couldn't really understand it much, so i'll have to give it a 4.

thanks sphincter, no really man i will just put some random instruments into the gaps of a random song and it might sound good. Or you can use your ears and imagination and make a cool song.

9th wonder uses FL studio still if im not mistaken.

Use another instrument sometimes?

@joh04667 Ah thanks, man

Indeed, its the right synths, not the program.

so is this what musicians would call mastering??

Why try to fill every section with? It's the silence that makes the sound. As in a painting or any good design you need a place to breath. Sounds like you have to fill every hole up for some reason.

They can say what they want about the sound quality... I've made some damn good mixes that sound better than anything I've heard Reason produce. It's all about how much time you're willing to put in.

!!! I GOT BEATS !!!

5 people went deaf from a the white noise lol

@tholithemba FL has bad quality? tell that to porter robinson or Avicii

well, you dont use fl for as a synth bro... you use it as a sequencer. rewire reason through FL and you'll see how much better it is.

high quality porn music :D

i can hook u up

haha hey youtuuuuube

man that hissin is so annoying,gud tutorial tho

thats because you dont know how to use it. FL isn't really super-producer material, but you can still make masterpieces with it.

high quality porn music :D
