    Here's a tip from me: When you open your project, FL opens up all your plugins that were used in that project. If you dont want to bother closing them all one by one, simply press F12 and it will close all the open tabs and then you can open your playlist and mixer back. This saves a lot of time and sometimes hardware too

      @@darksentinel082 dude you just gave me mad flashbacks to the free version days...
      I once spent 6 months on a track without closing it just for my PC to crash. Then when I finally purchased FL I realised it didn't matter cause not all the plugins usable in the trial come with the ~$600 version of FL (crazy right?) so all those patterns and fx disappeared as soon as I excitedly re-opened my long lost project.
      Morale of the story; life is pain.

    Another tip: Want to copy an effect to another mixer track but not go through loading it up again and making the same changes again? Click the down arrow on it, go to "Save preset as..." CLICK AND HOLD
    Now drag to a new mixer track and let go. Boom. Copy of the effect should load in.

    A few tips that you mentioned (and might not know) is
    - Hold shift when using the blade tool to make it perfectly vertical instead of a bunch of cuts all over the place
    - hold shift and scroll while hovering over tracks to move them instead of constantly right clicking and selecting move
    - hold shift while moving an automation point to stop it from moving up and down, same with ctrl and horizontal
    - when right clicking you can use hotkeys like C to copy, to save time instead of having to click it every time
    - You can select multiple mixer tracks by pressing shift + ctrl

    Ok I feel so dumb now. I always used the make unique as a sample feature and complained I had to pick a place to save it everytime without slowing down for a moment and spotting the "Make unique" option in literally the same menu. This is why you should watch every kind of videos you can find even if they are the basic ones lol

    You might know this already! But at 4:12 there is an alternate way of doing this that's faster (in my opinion). You can simply highlight the mixer track and hold the shift key while using the scroll wheel on your mouse to move mixer tracks around. Saves me a lot of time
