In this video I continue to add to my previous Edison recording video by taking a closer look at the features of this amazing plugin. I particularly like the blur tool and the denoise tool. Check out the timestamps in the description for more details. I've got some big news coming up soon that I can't wait to share. New videos every Saturday as usual :) Michael
My OG partner just passed away & he taught me everything I know about FL studio , I couldn’t call him to ask any questions anymore so I found this video & I just wanna say thank you man 🙏🏾🕊💯 I really appreciate your break downs on each tool ‼️‼️ means a lot to someone like me 🗣
Cool but who asked ? If you feel the need to write down your feelings perhaps start a diary or something, but stop spamming your sht on the internet lmao
can somebody help me? when I try this for the first time it worked instant. now when I have record the beat and then turn edison off to record my vocal with beat on, The recorder is starting recording without the beat he just start after the beat instead of in the beginning of the beat. How can I fix this? I got a USB microfone so I can hear my self dubble.
Man I've seen your videos popping in my youtube when I search for FL tutorials. I must say you really explain everything so well, so easily, and in depth. Thank you for your channel :D
Thank you so much for these video tutorials. I was ready to give up on learning to record my own songs and make my own beats until I found you. I LOVE you man.
THANK YOU!!!! Just started messing with FL, and no tutorial explains HOW to get rid of that double. Most tell you to turn off the master.. but you can't Edison that way.. and they don't tell you to hit A BUTTON to turn it off. So thank you! You have yourself a new subscriber and student!
Excellent video. Ive only just started using fl studio in the last year and really had no clue about using Edison!! Really cant wait to mess around with it now, thanks for such an amazing video!
been using fruity loops since version 7 , and you are teaching me things in a manner that i have not been able to understand from others who have tried to explain , thank you sir
I've been watching most of the videos of FL studio "how to" and i find this channel the best. You explained everything clearly in every videos. Thanks for all the tutorial. Heads-up man👍
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was using FL since the 90s...some musician friends used to make fun of that, but I loved it. I recorded my first songs there. Slowly disconnect from music...but this year I came back and saw the amazing things FL can do now. Thank you for sharing this!
You’re incredible at making these videos man, seriously. You make everything feel so comfortable and easy to understand. Other producers just like to flex on their knowledge without actually breaking things down or explaining them in simple terms but you make sure you take your time and explain everything in full detail to actually help your viewers.
I'm finally getting into using FL Studio using some third party software to accompany my real guitars and others. I've watched many other RUclips videos teaching FL Studios. Some of them very good. But yours is beyond the best. You have a natural delivery putting it all together in a cohesive way. Thank you for this video and the many others you have posted. You've helped so many people. Johannes
I know hardly anyone who can convey a complex topic as understandably as you can. You have true skills, not just when it comes to musical creativity and music production. You have my respect and my full attention! Thanks heaps 🙏
I knew FL studio was way ahead his competition, but with this video alone, I now realize how far ahead it its, AMAZING! And Thank you for all the videos you've made, I learned so much from you!
Every time I google something about FL, one of your videos is the first thing to pop up and it's great because your videos are so detailed and clear in the explanation!
wow, i really like the way how you can explain something in the video, and then later if i need to go back to something i just need to click marker in video description, good work!

Duuuuude thank you so much again for this video!!!!! Honestly this is one that's changed my life lol. I always find myself humming melodies while I'm writing and this let me put it into effect! I combined this with your FPC tutorial and made some really cool melodic samples and the de clicking just saved me again! Thank you for all you do my man!
Hello Michael! i'm so glad you posted this! I remember you saying you should talk about edison more in one of your videos i watched a couple days ago. I was just searching for tutorials on youtube and now i see you posted this 20 minutes ago. Perfect Timing. Thank you for the good quality content as always!
Yeah i noticed the comments asking for a tutorial, to be honest even though this is 25 minutes long I might have to make more videos going into certain features :)
Can't wait to watch this. Since getting my second monitor I have edison slotted in always, right now i use it more for recording for sample packs, but feel like I should start to use it more as a compositional tool... :)
I was pretty stressed with my bass and guitar work before I sat down and watched this. I was frozen up on a couple projects due to not really knowing anything about Edison.Thanks. You make this learning curve much less difficult with your clarity, conciseness, and great understanding of FL.
I keep coming back to this video. There is so much detail I seem to pick up a few new tricks every pass. It took me a few frustrating days to come round to recording audio using on play in eddison. The direct to playlist just filled my playlist and folders with lots of junk that takes time to remove after. I just discovered new time plugin this week, a game changer for quantising recorded audio with timing errors. Love this channel, thanks for de mistifing FLs complex tools.
Some points I hit the like button for your videos: (in general, I rarely hit Like) - You keep the video short and effective. (you know the time of audience is valuable) - You don't ask for subs. and like. (you know the audience will do this alone, if any valuable things is transformed)
Very nice, thank you! For two years, I haven't "actually recorded" anything before, but now I'm making Omnisphere patches for horror stuff and even Omnisphere doesn't have all the imaginable samples in the world - so very useful. Thanks again, Edison is great! Really clear, powerful, intuitive, and doesn't cost CPU. Loving it!
You have such a wonderful voice and speak with such precision. True talent. Not to mention the content of your videos are jam packed with top notch tips. Thank you so much for this awesome channel.
Hey Michael.. A huge cheers for you.. All your videos makes sense and teaches fundamentals, none of other creators do so. That's why you are unique. Just needed the tutorial on recording vocals in edison This will really helpful. Thanks again...
I've been using all other DAWS on very advanced level, especially Pro Tools and Logic Pro. Recently decided to give it a shot at FL Studio as it was made available for Mac users. From hundreds of tutorials on FL Studio I think yours are maybe if not the best ones; straight to the point and very clear. Thanks man.
You seem way too young to know all this stuff and be so brilliant at passing it on. I'm always impressed watching anything produced by you. Your in depth explanations of all your knowledge is absolutely astounding. Thank you for sharing it with us. Greetings from South Africa.
5:33 is a MAJOR gem a lot of producers/users don't know about, no need to feel dumb. :) Learned this a year and a half ago via FL Guru, definitely a workflow game changer. The Amp tool is especially helpful when editing vocals if you want a specific part or phrase louder/quieter.
Yeah man my recording life changed the second I figured that out. I cried a metaphorical tear for all the vocal time aligning I did in the past! (Oh, and thanks for the tip!)
@@inthemix lol@methaphorical tear. I know the feeling all too well. And np. I found it while looking for something similar to the clip gain tool in other DAWs. This was before they brought back the Boost option in the channel settings, but sometimes you just want to lower/increase one part instead of the whole take. That declipper tool you posted about in the past is boss too 👍
Hi MIchael, can I just say a big thank you too. I've been using FL for about 14 months now, after a 20 year hiaitus from computer music, since Fasttracker II on the PC, and before that the brilliant Amiga A500. I've done the best things ever since I took this back up as a brilliant 'Dad' hobby (well it is for me anyway). I'm sure a lot of people, like I did last night, when they want to know a little bit about something, easily explained, let out that little sigh of relief when you pop up to tell us how to work it! Thanks a bunch, my next project I'm going to put a DJ set together using the stem separation, and I want to go in and out of editing samples etc on the fly in Edison, and then insert some live bits from my Yamaha workstation. Let's see what happens! Byeeee
Thank You fellow artist ! That was a very clean and concise way of presenting that plugin and not holding back ways of improving the ears and techniques of your fellows. Kudos.
Very helpful tutorial, many thanks for this! Your pretty good in explaning. It was also very helpful that you show examples for every function while you explain the function.
Danke für deine wertvolle Arbeit, du erklärst einfach alles und das total verständlich. Ich verstehe dich auch ohne Untertitel. Grüsse aus Deutschland.
15:00 19:10 edison is good for experiemnting without needing to make a bunch of effects in mixer tracks like fruity reverb and reverse and eq, can do it all in edison and then export it out edison will takeup just 1 mixer track vs the 3 above 21:10 can also do the automation vol here too
Hi Michael. quick question. I was wandering when you are using atmospheres (in general or made from blur tool), when arranging the clip in the playlist how do you reduce the clicks when the clip finishes and stars again? i know you can just fade it out and in but if you want a continuous atmosphere is there a way you can do that without having clicks? thanks! love the videos by the way! have been watching for a few years now 🙏

Ain't gonna lie. Man you the best teacher on youtube when it comes to this 'producer' thing. You give the basics so people like me can understand.
Years of having no idea how to use this, and now you have opened my eyes.
Thank you so much for these video tutorials. I was ready to give up on learning to record my own songs and make my own beats until I found you. I LOVE you man.
This whole time I've felt like Edison is Low quality. Dang I'm excited to start applying this to my Songs. Thank you again.
To me, Edison seems pretty lossless compared to Slicex.

I was so amazed by this tutorial, i didn't realize how much control i can use with Edison :) Thank you so much and keep it coming.
