Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

Your computer doesn't have enough memory for it. My computer does it too, except it's not unusual for me to use 10 synths at one time. I just work through it.

And uh.. it's up to you what you want to do, but I wouldn't remix Sandstorm. Beginner remixes of songs like those are what gives FL Studio a bad reputation as a DAW.

lol good one

But yeah, your computer is just a bit too slow to have however many instruments you have loaded. My suggestion: get more RAM. RAM is the easiest and cheapest method to speeding up your computer. My old laptop had your problem until I doubled its ram from 512 to 1GB.

Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

My computer has 1GB and it still hits 92-99% memory usage on a regular basis, I can't even imagine running off of 512

Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

get a dual core processor and like 4 gb of a ram and it'll fix your problem completely

I rarely ever hear popping unless I'm running like 40 different vsts or something ridiculous like that

Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

I had that problem when I used FL. I just kept my buffer slider in the middle, and it worked pretty well, until I had up to about 40 different tracks at once. 2g of RAM i'd say is pretty comfortable for making meaty music.

And I have to agree with Cyanite - FL8, while I dont use it anymore, is a good DAW, but definitely stay away from remixing songs like Sandstorm.

Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

Did you switch to ASIO4ALL from Direct Sound (Primary Sound Driver or something like that) in the audio options?

**iPatcH** · 09-23-2009, 09:23 AM

Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

I thought you couldn't use FL unless you use ASIO, so I just assumed, but yeah, definitely check on that. It's especially vital if you're using the stock sound card on your computer.

Im almost certain having dual core processors wouldn't effect how FL studio is run. Fl studio only uses 1 processor unless they run the graphics section and the music section on seperate processors, which i doubt is true.

Try the normal stuff like updating your sound drivers and checking if ASIO is selected because FL Studio doesn't work as well under any others.

If that doesn't work buy some RAM, its super cheap now for 2-4 Gigs

flstudio didn't support dual core until fl9 came out a few weeks ago here's the feature list

Sidechaining - The FL Studio Mixer 'Track Send' now has an
additional 'Sidechain' mode to support multiple-input mixer plugins.

Multi-core CPU (Hyperthreading) - Improved multithreaded generator & added multithreaded effects processing.

Multiple controllers. You can now control multiple independent instrument channels, assigned by MIDI number.

New volatile linking feature.

Wrapper - Aligned tick lengths checkbox for greater plugin compatibility.

Revised Playlist

Playlist track naming & icon - ( Tools for better song organization ) plus playlist track mute controls and more.

New plugins:

Ogun: synthesizer specialized in metallic timbres.
Gross Beat: beat rearranger effect.
New Autogun synthesizer based on Ogun.

Sakura:
Vocodex: vocoder effect.

Maximus:
Heavy weaponry for the loudness war

Maximus will deliver transparent peak limiting and volume maximization without coloration of the processed sound. However, Maximus is much more than a pristine quality Mastering Maximizer, it's also a Compressor, Limiter, Noise Gate, Expander, Ducker and De-esser. Maximus excels equally well as
a final mastering plugin or as a per-track effect. Lock and load.

Implemented & removed:

Right-clicking playlist items no longer deletes them.

You can now middle-click the working area to pan plugin windows ( ONLY plugins, as it's designed for oversized VST's ).

fl9 is actually lighter on cpu usage too you might want to try upgrading and see if that fixes your problem

Re: If you know FL Studio, HELP!!!

Some generators use multithreading in FL that would benefit from dual core, even more and effects too now in FL9.

EDIT: Beat me to the punch
