g shit bro 🤙🏽

Dms, harmour, sakura, morphine, poizone,

Yeah, GMS is definetely underestimated. I use it a ton and I do feel like it's just a "drawn back" version of Sylenth1. With the right amount of tweaking and sound design knowledge you can basically achieve a sound as clean as the most popular VSTs like Sylenth1, Spire and Serum.

David Hodgin yeah it’s just a good starting point since it comes with the daw. I recommend investing in 3rd party plugins unless you’re willing to learn/enjoy sound design.

Glad you're still making music either way! Hope all is well. Have fun with the full version of FL. I think it's worth it with the sale price.

World Traveller go to packs and instruments to load the full instruments. You’re loading samples from the legacy folder instead I think

RockyV yep. It’s called Wurmhole @ rapontracks.com. Dm me @inflightmuzik on IG or Twitter and I’ll hook ya up

That's the where you add your master FX. You leave the master track empty. That way you can play reference tracks in your project that run through the master and compare them to your master from your WAV track. Also, this allows you to route your tag to the master track. Now when you export you will have the tagged version (master track) and untagged (wav track) when you export stems/trackouts. If you ever run into your tag causing clipping on the master you can always just add a soft clipper at default setting on the master. This should keep the tagged version from clipping and won't change the sound really at all as long as your tag isn't crazy loud. And you'll still have the untagged WAV version which won't have the soft clipper processing on it. Another thing I like to do is add any loudness monitoring plugins on the master track to compare my reference tracks to my WAV mastered track. That pretty much covers all of the reasons I do it. But there is also the added benefit of comparing two versions of your master. You can add master FX on both tracks and just use the FX on/off button at the bottom of each track to compare the two versions. So in the end you'll have your tagged master, untagged wav master, and unmasterted mix from the mix bus. That's every file you'll ever need all in one export.

Ibrahim I have a sample loop tutorial where I show how I used to do halftime without gross beat. But now I own halftime plugin now so I just use that. But if you still want to use gross beat for its other fix, just render it to wav when you use it. I’ve literally only used gross beat once in my life haha.

InflightMuzik Thanks fo the info! That’s helpful, I’ll definitely try that. I find all the other presets other than the halftime preset to be useful as well as the halftime preset, crazy stuff appears in melodies with time manipulation. Gross beat is also a lovely shortcut to a lot of automations. I’ll definitely check out your sample loop tutorial as well, your videos are packed with good stuff! Keep it up man.

Check Mr Different channel he did a piano pack

David Treasure oh word, thanks
