Now that I have distortion effects how to I add them to my song? :C

thats an easy one. click on the channel in the step sequencer, assign a channel to it where it says FX, go to the mixer, choose the respective insert. now on the right side, open one of the panels and you get a wide array of effects to choose from.

I know B0unc3 uses them, and I've been trying to get my hands on ones that sound like those. Now I know that the sound effects he uses are from Vengeance Club Sounds, and I've heard of Vengeance sample sounds. So I guess my question is, how can/do I get a sample sound of the cheering (Not only cheering, but other too.) from Vengeance, and how do I install it?
Help please.

Buy the sample pack..... And u install it by adding the sample directory through your option panel in FL..Click on "General" or whatever its called and add the folder

To use samples in FL, put the in the file called "user" you can then get to them via the browser in FL.

Link broken.

Ok, well, I bought the Vengeance Essential Clubsounds Vol. 2 thing. But I don't know how to put the sounds into FL.

I guess B0unc3 explained it....but not well enough for my little mind to understand. So could someone, or B0unc3, please dumb it down for me? Could you take me though step by step how to put all the sounds in?

Thanks

are you just basically trying to add samples?

just open up windows explorer, and just copy and paste the samples that are in the CD in any directory in the FL studio data folder...here's where mine are at..

C:\Program Files\Image-Line\FL Studio 6\Data\Patches\Packs

Ok here goes

To add a sample to fl studio you need to add a sampler channel. You can do this by right-clicking on your current channels, for example you may have one named "Hit" or "Kick". When you right-click you'll have the option to add a new channel and simply add a sampler channel. Now under the samplers options after you select it you can browse to find the file you wish to use - such as one of those Veng. samples you were talking about.

Pretty simple. I thought i'd mention that just encase that is where you were lost.

Actually it's called Sample, not sampler.

Well, hi guys I'm back.

So, I still haven't found out how to create a saw lead/synth, so I'm going to ask again.
How does one do that?

I mean, I look for 'saw' in Fl Studio, and all I can find is a sound with two or three clicks in it.
Now that doesn't help me much.

I also try to create a 3xOsc synth, trying to make it sound like a genuine trance lead, but I failed at that.

Just listen to any trance song on NG, for example DJ Runaway's Acid Stab, and at about 0:46 you'll here it kicking in.

Help?

Well, the easiest program to use would be z3ta. That VSTi makes the best saw leads imaginable (unless you are B0UNC3). You choose 2 vintage saws with a low freq. sine^2 wave. You set that low freq. wave to max speed. Then, on the bottom, you click "source" and choose "lfo1". Where is says "range" move up one bar. Where it says "curve" select "fast -". For control, select "eg1". For destination, choose "all osc pitch".

Then, go to envelopes. Take the "A" envelope and turn slope, decay, sustain, and amount all the way up. Then, create another envelope and do the same, except turn release up too for this one.

Now, go to the saws. Make one +1 octave and another +2 octave. Then, make the +2 octave one +37.5 cents. After, change the mode to "normal, free". From there, add a 6-voice chorus and optionally some reverb, delay, or a compressor.

That will give you a pretty generic trance dual-saw lead. Also, if you don't have z3ta, send me a PM and I will tell you how to do something else.

Actually I think B0UNC3 uses Nexus.... Which is quite expensive I believe... either 300 or 400 dollars I dont remember... But in Nexus you can't actually edit your own synths like you can in sytrus....

No, B0UNC3 uses 3xosc and Korg Legacy. Not Nexus, he however, does use VEC samples, which were produced by the same company that made Nexus.

Also, yeah, that is pretty much the commercial trance preset, but once you understand it, you can edit it to your liking, rather than having to mess around with it for days.

Would FL be the way to go for a drum (keyboard/organ) synth for. Progressive rock style music?

Depends on what you want there... Basically any program like Reason or FL could do stuff like that... There is an epic battle as to which is better...

I dont quite know what you mean by drum (Keyboard Organ) Synth.... But with the power of VST's and Soundfonts, you can basically do anything you want in FL.

Hm, I've never figured out how to use Soundfonts. Pretty much all I use is Sytrus, Nexus, FreeAlpha, Attack and FPC. Where could I get Soundfonts?
But yes, FL is very powerful for sampling/synthesizing. Recording audio isn't its strong point, I use Audacity for all that.

Damn, i want nexus...

anyways
(Don't flame me if you already know this... i was just excited cause I just figured it out)

Ever listened to a song you just exported, and you have that annoying bwoo at the start from all the other synths mixed together at once like in the first second of the song?
Well I just figured out what causes it... Again, dont flame me if you already knew it, as I'm just very slow and figured it out. It's caused when you choose to export a song while it's playing in FL. If it does it in one of your songs, simply open the song in FL again, make sure the song is stopped, and export it then...

Woohoo, no more fading in cause I cant get rid of the damn sound at the start.

I've posted this once on the main forum but I was told to repost here, so here goes:

How can I create long 'wailing' effects in fruityloops? If anyone's ever heard Parallel Stripes by Aphex Twin they'll know what I mean :P

I basically want to make creepy sounds overlapping, like a series of different notes which sound like wailing sounds. Anyone know how? :o

Remixing question.
Im really confused on how you do this. Is there a way to import the whole song, without slicing, and how do you use different instruments. Maybe im just stupid. :x

Try this Vsti - http://www.krakli.co.uk/secure/gargoyle.zip - it might have what you're looking for.
While you're there, check out all the stuff on http://www.krakli.co.uk/freesynths.asp . They have good synths!

If you're looking for video game remixs try here

Vgmusic

They're midi's.... Simply open the midid in FL and place your instruments and wham... But please, dont upload them simply like they are just with instruments... Change them up a bit, make it your own... Make it a REMIX.

Hey thanks, I love that site!

I asked a question about distortion, but I didnt understand it.
So can someone tell me where to find the distortion stuff, and how to add it in?

Another question.
Is Fl a lot easier than reason? I was considering getting it.

What do you mean by distortion... But you CAN add effects to synths, not sure what you mean exactly by distortion, but play with the different effects...

Make your melody or whatever, open the mixer, select the channel that the melody is in (The little green dot next to the channel) then right click on a channel space in the mixer and select "link selected channels." Now that makes that channel attached to that specific spot in the mixer. On the right there are insert spaces and down facing arrows, look around for anything you want in there...

Or for premade effects go to the search area on the far left and go Plugin presets > Effects > Whatever you want in there... Distortion eh? Try looking in the flanger area.

where can I get for free?

Its called a free trial. also PM me

Well. I can say that Reason to me is incredibly eye poppingly complex at first, but you settle into it. FL Studio is the easiest sequencer you can find.

I use a grand piano ffs!

It all has to do with how spasmatic ur movement on the keys are (lfo).

Btw, z3ta is good, but I don't like the flow in it.

Sure I've tried Nexus out.... It's good, but i'm not one for premade synths and things like that.
Legacy is just ownage.....If anyone says otherwise u deserve to die

When i said distortion, I meant, like add a sound to the whole song. Like cornandbeans does. I'm not sure if i'm right he does that, or just making a fool out of myself.

Okay, I posted this in the general thread cause I didn't see this one, I thought it was already trashed, but anywho here's the question. I have a YAMAHA PortaSound PSS-480 and I just recently purchased an EDIROL UM-1EX USB MIDI Interface cable to send MIDI from my PSS-480 to FL. I have it all hooked up, and the drivers are set, but there's no MIDI flow. The Interface cable reads it, because the light starts blinking, but my computer doesn't react to anything. If some one's got the time
