Hey, Maestro, thanks for stopping by. :)
Eh, I try. :) I definitely did teach a bit more than the basics of FL Studio with this song. I mostly led it, actually, though he did contribute a LOT for someone making their first song. :D I agree the flanger wasn't necessary, it even made the drums a bit hard to hear in my opinion - I put it on just to experiment and before I knew it became one of those things that you feel the song would sound empty without, even though it's not. :\
Yep, it was an automation clip. :)
You're typing like it's a song my friend made after I taught him how to use FL, so I'll clarify just in case - my friend and I collaborated on this while I was teaching him FL Studio. I led it, I did most of the complex stuff - automation clips, filters and stuff - I should have tried a bit harder, I admit, to teach him about those as well, though it's a bit more complicated than the simple playlist and piano roll and I didn't want to teach too much at once. ;)
Thanks for the review, Maestro, glad you liked it. I'm going to show my friend this review right now. :)
