Brilliant. I’m a disabled vet and just got into DAWs a few yrs back. FL Studio was most accommodating to my way to processing so I purchased it, learned quite a bit (v. 12) and after a 2 yr setback, I’m back to FL 20 relearning basics and the Sunday of additions. I’ve watched an exponential number of videos, benefitted from many, but your method of “cutting to the chase” and recognizing that newbies (like me at 66yr) aren’t necessarily daft. I applaud your efforts and hope to invest in your efforts before too long. Dr. Rich
I legitimately bought a notebook and coloured pens to sit though all these videos and take notes as if im at school, because your content is better quality anyway. cheers to you!
I am almost at the end of the basics series and I have so many new and original videos to be released very soon including a new remix contest with over $1000 of prizes and a big collaboration with another channel :)
You should have more than a million subscribers very soon. Definitely the best RUclips channel for FL Studio. Learnt more from you than any of the other paid and free courses. The knowledge and tips and tricks you share are normally very closely held secrets that most producers keep to themselves and charge an arm and leg for. I work in a music instrument retailer in the studio section and this is the only FL channel I ever suggest.
Thanks Jay! I have experienced the same thing with paid courses (for other topics). Honestly the vast majority of courses are just people looking to make money fast sharing information which is already available for free on the internet! I’m very happy to be able to help :)
Yea, im finding my mind keeps wandering off, itd be nice if he paused between explanations to let the thoughts settle in but I understand he tries to keep the videos short.
It should be noted that single letter key shortcuts for tools only work with 'typing keypad to piano keypad' toggled off. The location of the button to toggle this off is to the lower right of the tempo indicator and directly right of the song position bar at the top of FL Studio. A shortcut to toggle this on or off is Ctrl + T. However, you can't use it this way in the Playlist window as Ctrl + T is assigned to 'adding a Time Marker and auto-naming it (Auto #x)'. The above video starts discussing these single letter key shortcuts for tools at position 3:00.
Thank you so much for all your time and energy that you have out into these videos. Your way of explaining and showing is really clear simple concise and to the point. Your videos are so well constructed and presented. I really appreciate these videos and I have learned so much and have so much more to learn. I have used FL for a few years and recently bought the producer edition. I reference your videos so much. Thank you and keep up the good work 👍
I go to these videos all the time for FL Studio. They are clear, concise and super easy to follow. Every other video seems to be more about the person doing it than the actual thing they are teaching. Half of it is fluff. This channel is brilliant. Keep it up.
Wow. I've been using FL off and on for about 15 years and just learned a ton about the playlist that I never knew. Great video. Subscribing and I'll be watching all your other stuff now. Thanks!
man this channel is so good ..... he explains all the concepts in a very simple way ... and explains every basic thing .... thanks for the tutorials bro
Thank you so much, I just got started with FL and your videos help out a lot. Also you have the perfect voice to be like a psychologist or an Ebook reader.
This guy gives us all his super high quality content for free here on youtube. Damn man i even download his videos to my local drive because they are so helpful. Thanks for opening the education for this complex programs to everyone.
I know you probably won't read this since you've made this so long ago but I've recently just stepped back into producing music and i can tell you how grateful I am of you showing all of these little important details that expand our knowledge and fluidity around FL. I haven't used FL studio since FL12 and its a huge learning curve for me since its not only been a long time but also very upgraded now and you make things so easy to follow along and practice. Thank you :)
@@ziyadkidemokafo3487 Hey buddy, on Edison there's a button in the right side where the controls are that says "send to playlist" Let me know if that helps. It will then appear as its own unique audio wav file
Your videos are so helpful and make FL Studio seem much less daunting than some of the other videos I've seen. So, thank you! I plan to watch them all so long as I can find them all!
These are a great brushup for the lifetime updates. Havent gotten back into fl for like 5 years and forgot about a lot of this stuff. SUPER HELPFUL and straight to the point. Thank you so much!
so when snap to grid is on "main" or any specific other than "none" I used to zoom in as close as possible in order to cancel out the grid snap if i wanted to make fine adjustments thanks to your tip at 6:47 i no longer zoom in as close as possible when making fine adjustments holy shit thank you so much!! just hold alt
Grouping the tracks with a shortcut G will be so helpful!! I got to know about it only, thank you very much!) It was a bit unconvenient to choose and press GROUP WITH ABOVE TRACK with a mouse))
This is a super handy, properly detailed beginner guide video. Thank you so much for sharing your exp. I've just started learning FL studio and your guides are really helpful!
Thanks so much for making these videos man. I'm a musician currently getting into the digital world and these are very straight forward and extremely helpful. Awesome :)
Im tryna watch this whole playlist tonight. I wanna use FL Studio in Conjunction with Logic Pro and this playlist is just what I needed. Thanks man! The outro is on point too, that's where shit gets awkward sometimes but not on this channel. Thanks again mane
I just started to use FL Studio again because it seems to be one of the best DAW for me to say the least. I was using FL first time in 2016 - 2017 but I decided to check other daws too. Now I'm back to again. One of the reason why I choose FL is that it has very good interface and it is stable. And lifetime updates and different distribution for to choose.
Wish I found this channel before buying some sketchy FL Studio course, it's only the third vid and I already know more about the software than after whole chapters of the course.
I want to mention that the numbers running across the top are measure counts, not time signature, or time in minutes / seconds. It's time in the sense of how many measures a song runs. :) This could use an update! :D i'm trying to find a way to name certain measures so I can more easily find parts in my music. I can denote things by rows, but not anything vertically, like "here is the bridge, here's the chorus, here's transition one" etc. really hoping to find that! and I did!!! WOOO!!! as always, in the mix has what I need for FL studio! ALT+T = create marker!
Great tutorial as always. Though I'm not sure how strange changing the time signature is within a song. It has been done before and for some songs it works.
KEVIN! Dude you used to be on HOME ALONE. I love it. 😅 just kidding, I’m having an issue, my song won’t loop. It’s suppose to jump back to the beginning as I am constructing the project, no?
Everytime i record a audio vocal, then delete the audio clip. The playlist keeps assigning the next empty track in the playlist. Moving it down everytime. With what setting do i disable it? it gets very annoying after a few takes, having to drag my audio clips up all the way again.
Is a way to change the focus of windows? Sometimes you touch a plugin or other window and for change keys you need to click anywhere in the playlist or use the shortcut key to regain the focus on the window
Maybe a stupid question, but I just have to ask. If I want to learn how to create music on Taishi level (see Taishi - False God, or Nhato - Magic or Nhato - Gekka), do you think it is reachable? I mean, is it possible for me to learn how to create music like that? If so, how long do you think someone needs to practice to obtain that level of expertise, and in which direction I should focus my learning effort to achieve my goal? I understand that it won't be at my grasp within months, but I'm wondering if it is a matter of years or decades xD
Great video, I will be checking other videos you have made so I subscribbed, and I have one question Im sure you can answer, I have seen some screenshots from FL Studio where we can see the patterns we have in our project in a list to the left of the playlist (its in same window panel) so how can we make that? it seems more handy to have them there than in the top dropdown, well at least for me it will be better, thanks beforehand
is there a nice way to turn some kinda chopped beat/chopped audio straight on the timeline into a composable pattern? sort of how you have your kicks laid out, it'd be nice to be able to select something and make it a pattern so you could reuse it easily and edit it just in one place edit: your video on consolidating clips does get close but doesn't make it as editable still, but it's close enough probably
Is there a shortcut for the "make unique" or is there a way to make it unique by default? I don't like having to do that step when I should be only editing the exact section that I'm wanting to.
i had fl studio before some things are different i think if fl studio i hope one day you do it that the playlist patches are fix ie i can delete them again and again and then insert them too bad that FL studio deleted the fix mode by pattern So I watched your video, I have to say applause, it's really great what you show us !
at 5:43 you said it "deletes everything under there" when it actually left the middle purple pattern still in the 3 parts. So I don't think it "deleted" everything... this program confuses me! Help! Why did it delete the up and bottom one and leave the middle, especially when you didn't even delete from that dropdown?!
I have a problem when I'm either fading or slicing in the playlist. I try to drag the end of a recording down and it moves by the block rather than by the accuracy of my mouse.
How do you add a time signature with a marker in the playlist in the previous version of FL Studio? The add time signature option doesn't come when I right click on my marker. Fantastic video, thanks!
You have touched upon something that I am trying to figure out atm. I have been using FL Studio for 3 days now and I’m trying to learn it as I have been given many project folders from clients etc; I figured it’s time to REALLY learn it. Can you please explain to me why, when you drag audio in to the playlist, whilst it adds the clips to a channel but it does not immediately link it to an insert in the mixer? If I right click on the channel it creates, the option to assign it to an insert is greyed out. I can manually change the settings from the channel rack and then change then at the the mixer but that seems so long winded and old fashioned. Is there a way of being able to set it up so that the audio I drag in to the playlist is not only linked to a new channel in the channel rack but I have the option to assign the channel to its own insert? And not have to manually do it each time cuz it’s a real ball ache. Also, if I drag the audio directly into a new channel in the rack, if I assign it to an insert, the mixer reflects the name of the sample or channel name; doesn’t do that the other way! Sorry for the LONG comment / question but it’s sending me up the wall. I really love your channel! I’m learning FL really well thanks to your professional vids 🤟🏻

I appreciate so much tutorial teachers like yourself who can place themselves in the position of the beginner, and explain things clearly
I have to watch this 10 times cause I keep forgetting😂

Evernote was a game changer for me!

This is a solid tutorial which is going to benefit a new FL Studio user.Shouts out to In The Mix man, keep these dope works coming in
Thank you for this! This cut the time i spend to arrange my tracks in about 1/4th. i was always fighting with the playlist.
9:48 this part of changing the time signatures and adding things in a section of the song is one of the things I was looking for.
Can we take a moment to appreciate how absolutely beautiful this man looks
Bro you have a gift. Your videos are so thorough.

Awesome! ❤ I don't know why CTRL+C and CTRL+V didn't work on mine in the playlist. Is there any setting I hv to change? Thx
love your videos bro very helpful thanks
Small correction. Cntrl+right click doesn't revert back to normal. It seems to swap between the last two views at which you placed patterns

How do you do everything? Bruh. Goated no question YT Legend.
I like the way you explain
is there a nice way to turn some kinda chopped beat/chopped audio straight on the timeline into a composable pattern? sort of how you have your kicks laid out, it'd be nice to be able to select something and make it a pattern so you could reuse it easily and edit it just in one place
edit: your video on consolidating clips does get close but doesn't make it as editable still, but it's close enough probably
Thank you for this! very helpful
one of the best channels i ever saw
Thank you So much for your precious time, and this valuable tutorial! God bless you!
