nvm

- is there a way to gardually increase the volume for a melody>?
- is there a way to gradually increase/decrease the x/y values on sytrus?

Is there a way to change the pitch of just one instrument?

What purpose does the fruity scratcher have? Like, how do you get the scratches on the beat/pattern/song you're making.

Yes with Automation clips...

Right click on the knob you want to increase/decrease, and select "create automation clip"

Then, there are two halves of the playlist, a top and a bottom....

Click on the bottom half where you want the increase in volume to occur, and drag the box, change its length, whatever you want to do to how long you want the change to take.

Click on the line and drag that to shape the change...

Wasn't a very detailed tutorial, but if you need any extra help just PM me.

Yes, click on the intstruments channel, and it should open a popup menu thingy... In that at the top there should be a knob labeled "Pitch"

Play around with that.

And I still havn't figured out fruity scratcher, but I would think you'd simply connect it to a controller of some sort, like cutoff or something... I'll look into it for you.

Alright, thank you, I've looked for something on it here and a little on Google but I couldn't find anything helpful.

I think you have to create a different automation clip for both the x value and the y value, but it isn't too much extra work. Just a little more timing to make it work out.

I'm assuming you're talking about the sytrus X and Y value? Cause thats the only time i've ever automated X and Y.

But yeah, I think two different automation clips, 1 for each value.
To do it, there should be knobs next to the X/Y chart thingy.

but the thing is, i really dont have drivers, because they havent released them for vista. ive tried the xp ones, and i cant quite get them to work.

Could i perhaps talk to you on MSN or AIM?

Hey, this may have been asked before but i didn't find anything. Well I was messin around on FL the other day and opening sample songs that came with the download and one of them had a thing called the FL x-y generator, and it was fun to use. BUT the problem is i don't know how to open that and how do you use it in action with your song so it moves around and all that? and in the Plugin presets-effects section how to you get those working?

First open your mixer, and then assign effects to your FX slots.
When you have a x-y plugin in your project, you can assign knobs, and stuff to it, by right clicking on the knob, and pressing "Link to controller"

Assign the channel to an insert spot in the mixer, than click on the little down arrow on the far right of the mixer for that channel, and select fruity x-y controller.

As for how to use it, look at mackerels post.

I've got a problem.

I've started a song with FL, but at the point where the strings come in, there is this annoying fuzz that won't go away.

I've tried playing around with many many settings, but I still haven't found one that helps this problem.
So I've given up, and come here for help.

Can someone please open it up and try to find out how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

It might be because you're using ToxicIII or another demo version of a plugin. The developers put in the fuzz so you'll get the full to make it go away. Well I can't use FL atm so I can't open your flp :(

No, it's called clipping... it's when like all the frequencies and stuff try to interfere and stuff, which causes fuzz... I think...

try throwing some compressors in the mixer, and Eq'ing it a bit, it should clear it up. (Sytrus causes a lot of clipping btw)

clipping is when the volume is so high, that the waveform is flat on the top and bottom. This is because there is a limit to how high a waveform can be. Heres a picture of clipping. The wave with flat tops and bottoms is clipped

indirectly i want to ask a question of witch FL studio would be the best.
XXL
Directors
or the cheap one.

Obviously XXL.

Depends on where your skill level is at... If you're new and not really into it that much right now, go for the cheap one... But if you're new and you REALLY REALLY like to make music go for the directors, but if you think you're good enough for a good one and are really into music, go for XXL. I got XXL and i use it every day for like hours... so therefore it was worth it.

Pick what you think you should get, not what we tell you.

well i mean as far as what you said you awncerd it. i just dident want to but xxl and its way over my head whereas the directors wouldbe easyer to use. moreor less i wanted to know the major diffrence between but i am leaning tward the xxl beacuse of what i read on the web about it.

well i finaly got my midi controller working. But i have one question.

How do i make it, so that when i record with the piano roll, the notes dont automaticaly stick to the step sequencer squares, and can be placed freely where i want as i play them. It also doesnt let me play chords.

And second, how come the last note of one of my VST instruments just sustains forever?

sorry to double post, but how do i add a channel to the mixer, so i can add effects to it.

Does anyone know of a free program that does good trance lead intruments?

I can't get my notes to stop on the piano roll. It always has to end on a whole second anyway to get it to stop on my choice?

Select the channel you want to link, then the mixer track. Then use ctrl+L to add the channel to it.
