@@thomasharris9059 definitely an important point, surprised to see this wasn't included. colours in the piano roll are not just for show! they denote which midi channel the note triggers, and for some common vsts (like kontakt), this determines which instrument in the chain actually gets played.
Well at least you know how to organize stuff to make them not overwhelm you. Idk what to organize tho, my fl projects are always mostly empty because idk how to use everything except two or three vsts lol
@@mrseenyousomewhere888 I mean Ableton has the better stock plugins (but is also more expensive due to no lifetime updates), but it's just no fun working with it, just because of the looks.
Meh. Ableton has a few themes, but you can color them however you like with the hue and brightness controls - applies to the whole gui. Tracks and clips you can color individually like in fl studio. Ableton also had a clean vector gui from the beginning allowing you control the zoom, FL Studio had to redesign everything to build a scalable UI (but they did do a great job).
The colors in the piano roll also corresponds with the midi channel. It lets you stack certain effects like slides without interfering with the rest of the notes. Very cool.
It also literally works as well for using instruments that are set to corrensponding MIDI channels Or even use something like BRSO Articulate to easily control instrument articulations (like using an orchestral sample library with different techniques corresponding to different notes)
Small thing though: when you're recolouring a note, it changes the MIDi channel as well. This happens with instruments like Kontakt. If you have two modules loaded, you trigger different ones by... recolouring the midi notes.
I mean while these are done in FL and maybe in some case assumes the user uses FL (like this one), this channel's tips are pretty helpful even if you use a different DAW
So THAT'S how you change the color of a group of notes in the piano roll!? I swear man you're a life saver! I've been looking for this option for YEARS at this point, so glad I follow you 😭🙏
the note color change has a hidden function if you want to play two notes on the same instrument in the same pattern but only want one of them to be affected by slide notes then you can assign them two different colors and only the note that has a slider note with the matching color will be the one to pitch shift
The colors of your MIDI channels in the piano roll also affect the default colors of the audio clips in your playlist, so you can make all of them pink and purple for example and then whenever you add samples to the playlist, they'll be pink and purple
I don't even have FL studio and I have never made a full song in my entire life but I love watching your videos because they are just so satisfying to watch.
a quick tip since you touched the color of the notes in the piano roll, the slide effect that you can apply in the piano roll affects the notes that are the same color so for example u got a note on a octave and another one on a octave lower and you want them both to slide each on octave higher, in the simple scenario your note 1 will slide octave higher but the second one will slide 2 octaves higher since initially its 1 octave lower than the note 1. To fix it you can color the note one and the slide note for it in the same color and color second note in the same color as the slide note that goes along with it. In this case both of your notes will slide 1 octave higher instead of 1 and 2
I like how this guy’s videos’ background music goes perfectly with whatever example of beats he showed us in every tutorial ever and I love it. Keep going dude :D
Crazy thing is, changing the look and vibe of your interface actually makes your music sound better...I couldn't believe my ears at first but whoa....major difference.
Coloring midi lets you do a lot of cool stuff too. Like making a synth glide from chord to chord, if you voice your chords so there's mostly stepwise motion, turn your synth on mono&portamento, change the color of each voice in your chord progression you will get this effect. If you don't want portamento/glide on everything, you can turn it off, and just use fls' glide notes where you want them.
Oh my gosh. I had been killing myself over "I wish i could change all these notes colours at the same time" for years, i swear i looked it up years ago and found nothing. Thank you so much
The color on the notes in the pianoroll are useful if you want to send notes to different synths as well. Each color has a number, which is a midi channel. And you can have color-specific notes have slide applied to them (say if you combine green and blue, the blue slides will only apply to the blue notes). Great channel btw!
Colour is actually also useful in the piano roll: slide only works on the same colour notes so if you have several sliding notes that interfere, colpur them!
Please note that changing the which note color you use, does emulate changing the midi port and it can mess up non-native plugins that support using multiple midi inputs (like Kontakt for example). Color 1-16 representing midi port 0-15 respectively
0:16 For some reason my FL (latest version) doesn't have the "waves" circle in the themes menu, so I can't change the color of the waves. Colorful waves is on. Have I missed something?
Here is the song all the best and love

Careful not to change the midi channel when changing colors in the piano roll!

is all this possible in fl studio 12.1.2?
Watching videos about how to make FL Studio look pretty instead of actually learning how to make beats is an inevitable part of becoming a producer
Well, producing should be fun and this helps with it 🤷
This is basically me
Well at least you know how to organize stuff to make them not overwhelm you.

ikr, i was supposed to watch a tutorial about how to make a bossa nova drum sequence
Organization is an INCREDIBLE skill for a producer don't worry. You're still learning :)
i love the fact that his voice is on beat, so subtle but adds so much life

It was a funny sneaky jab. Only producers would get it.
this guy is better at advertising FL studio than FL studio themselves
I was literally about to comment that
I got Fl studio because I watch his videos. :D
ableton guy here, i really like how entirely customizable fl is when it comes to colors, i wish ableton had a little more freedom like that
Ableton user here,
…yeah, Fl got us with that one. Goddamn… 😅
Come to think of it, why does every DAW’s graphics look like it was made in like 1980? No wonder why everyone uses FL

"Ableton" totally got me. I'm not regretting that I've subscribed to you.
even in the fl studio 21 customization video synthet made a banger
This Ableton joke was wild
HOW DID U MAKE A DRAWING SOUND GOOD, they heart literally sounded like, a cute heart
The notes are based on the A major scale

NOT THE AAUUUGGGHHHH SOUND EFFECT LMFAO
You made it look so beautiful! Making the music production into a whole additional kind of art! I hope to make mine pretty too!

Don't stop. Maybe get a cracked version of 11 at some point. Keep it up!

Best FL Studio Ad ever
As someone who has only just started learning FL after years spent with Ableton, your videos are a godsend. Keep it up!

the most consistantly good content

i love the melodies in this video
That heart sounds crazy. Love it

the way you make this tutorials is fucking gorgeous
i love the way this guy presents his videos
I didn't even know this was possible. Thanks for sharing this. subbed.
beautiful. the video itself is a statement on how pretty things matter. well done and thank you

dude i love listening to this music while you give amazing info
i fucking love this editing style, everything is on beat and even when hes talking sometimes
This guy can draw a heart in flstudio and still have it be fire 🔥🔥
I hope fl hires you. I havent seen anyone doing such good demonstrations on fl as you. 10/10
Du är grym på att göra underhållande videor om FL. Bra jobbat!
Best RUclipsr ever. Change my mind (you won't). Informative, and fun! I really love making the music part of the explanation/narration. It's neat.
that heart at the end goes hard 🔥
i used to have my piano roll light blue before palettes were introduced. i am a man of light
Can't we talk about how heavenly good this sounds 1:15
I'm the only one who thinks that his talking is very ideal with song

thank you!
you can also press mouse scroll to rename and recolour patterns, channel and mixer tracks etc (almost the same as F2)
Definitely subbed because how fast, easily, funnily you explain all with a good lil melody.
The aaAAAaHH near the light mode got me! 😂😂
those truly are crazy amounts of light mode
This video is absolutely! The creativity is astonishing!
ur making fl studio look fun 😭
it really is fun!
My current dream consists of listening to a full song based on that heart at the end

thank you elenai rey
