Re: Need help or tips with FL studio?

Do you know anything about dblue Glitch VSTi? I have a semi-vivid understanding of FL (you can find some songs I've done on myspace.com/tehemissaries). I would like to fully edit the whole song directly through Glitch, but it seems I can't automate anything with it. The time frame also only seems to be limited to 16 beats before repeating the same effects. Is there a similar VSTi that allows automating? Otherwise, could you assist me with this one?

The problem is also stated in this thread: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...ad.php?t=94833

EDIT: Here's a link to the .flp and here's a link to the VSTi
The drum loop I sliced is inside FL8.

I need a little help with making Filter and stuff Automated in the playlist!

Like in Open>Cool Stuff>Electroconductor-Midnight, He uses a Love Philter that's in the playlist and automated! How does he do that?!?

The love philter can be found on FX slot 11.

He right clicks a knob (Mod X/Y, and Mute in this case) in the love philter and selects "Create automation clip" and then edits it within the playlist.

Basically you can fit four measures on each number on the 'pattern bank' and use automation or Edit Events to switch between the bars during the song. There might be an easier way but I don't know it. :|

How would I automate with it? I can't right click anything... I guess I could try the record thing... but I really never use that. Could you demonstrate how you'd go about doing this? Also, anyone else is open to this subject.

I guess it just looks confusing because he overlaps them
And FX 11 is pretty far out there. I rarely get to those slots. When you get out there, you've probably done a lot of meticulous editing :P

Re: Need help or tips with FL studio?

I have a question about the basic way FL works

let's say I want to create a song that has an irregular structure, like a rhapsody. very little of what I put in the song repeats. I don't want to have to use a separate pattern for each measure and stuff, so how would I simplify this?

Woops, missed this. 11 isn't a lot haha. In fact, it's best to set EACH channel to its own insert imo). I guess that is more meticulous though heh.

Use piano roll and you can make it go for as long as you want instead of just one measure. Also, you can't change time signatures in the middle of a project so you're going to have to work your way around that (probably just set the main project to 1/4 if you're planning on time signature changes =\)

Re: Need help or tips with FL studio?

wait, so I have to use piano roll for like the entire song?

sucks

This is the only way I know of doing time sig changes. It keeps your project flexible because your piano rolls dictate your phrases basically.

First thing that comes to mind is... extend the pattern throughout the entire song I guess.
