FL Studio Harmless Synth Tutorial

Рет қаралды 207,855

Күн бұрын

Harmless is a stock synth in FL Studio 20. It is an ideal plugin to create stunning Basses, Leads, Pads and inharmonic textures, but first it's important to understand the basics of the synth and how to control the sounds. Be sure to follow along with your synth and watch until the end for some practical examples :) Michael

This guy's made a psytrance and deep house bass with the most simplest synthesizer in FL studio. I've been using Harmless for the past 6 months playing around and just flicking random knobs trying to figure out how to create some basses for my latest track. It all makes sense now lol. This tutorial has done me wonders man, you have no idea how thankful I am that you put this up and that I know what all of these functions do. No need to purchase serum anymore.

It's far from the simplest synth. Most iconic synths sounds were created on pretty primitive equipment by modern standards.

Harmless is so great for chordstacks, despite being a stock plugin I think it’s amazing and highly overlooked. Even for other sounds, too

I gotta say, I've not had many educational youtubers that I can always return to. Either they have a niche skillset, are focused on just super beginner stuff, I just stop enjoying the way they conduct themselves over time, or the way they teach is different enough from the way I learn that I can't keep with them for too long. I've never had that problem here, not in one single video, and I know we all point it out already, but the amount of teaching and education he puts out into the world for free at such a high quality is really unmatched. I'm not saying there aren't other quality music educators here on KZfaq but Michael (I'm sorry if I spelled that incorrectly) puts off an air of just actually caring about teaching people the things he knows. I will not at all be surprised when the next generation of producers are constantly shouting him out for helping them figure things out right at the start. Thanks for all the practical education, teach!
