I've tried to sit through 3 hour-4 hour long tutorials on fl studio.....and its this 19 min video that taught me all the things I ACTUALLY wanted/needed to know. Thank you so much!

[@weebtrash4916]

Finally, a basic in depth tutorial that doesn't start with "okay first bring up [insert $100+ plugin that you can't afford]" or just jumps in without explaining much of what everything does

[@JAYFULFILMZ]

Wow! I have literally never seen anything in my life explained so perfectly! Mind blowing how straight forward, accurate & precise this tutorial was! I didn’t even have to rewind ⏪ Much respect to you for breaking this down for us newcomers & semi-newcomers!

[@ree745]

ong facts

[@molee365]

Honestly!!!This is perfectly explained😭💎💎

[@nifftycat]

i agree this one makes the most sense and is most clear so far!!!!

[@nicolasalexander408]

Yeh, Navie is proper on it! ;D

[@7806macca]

This is, by far, the best tutorial I have come across for a DAW. In fact, maybe even the best tutorial I have come across full stop. Thankyou!

[@footprint_arts]

Just few minutes in , but i can already tell that you're a good teacher cause you know how beginners learn, I love the quick recaps you make evey time you add up concepts

[@THE1vbLLover69_]

Your guide has made it so FL Studio doesn't chemically castrate my brain anymore, just a splitting headache. You have some of my greatest gratitude

No facts

It was a video above and seen this one and was like yes

[@marioandluigi101]

I just "made" my first beat thanks to this video, thank you! I feel like I can finally play around without feeling like I don't know enough, and be able to get something out of other educational videos. Hell yeah.

[@epicchannel4724]

Possibly one of the best basics tutorial videos on FL studio available. Very well done.

[@esper_3]

You honestly really helped me I bought fl studio and just had it here collecting dust because at first I thought it was hard to use, and never wanted to use it again, now after watching this video it made me realize how complicated I was making everything, and now I am ready to begin my journey to start making beats. Thank You !

[@jervothereal6048]

actually someone who can clearly explain how to use fl studio, 10/10 video!

[@logic5168]

Among every other tutorial I've watched that was the best tutorial ever, the way you keep repeating what you previously said and how precise your explanation is makes it easy to learn and remember, thank you.

[@DrewTheSon]

Dude my mind is blown, easiest like & sub thus far for me. I literally searched & watched "tutorials" for HOURS looking for the fix to those exact 2 issues with the piano roll notes, that you so casually hit right on the head with precision and foresight to help us noobs avoid so much unneccessary pain and confusion when starting out with FL Studio. Thanks Navie, you're an awesome teacher!

[@AVB-cg7ij]

I've been watching his vid for a long time now... and my eyes always goes on the bicep🤷‍♂... bros been working out real hard both in music and outta music💪🔥🙆‍♂💨

[@ilan1213]

Dear Navie, i was so very impressed from your simplisity in explaning the main use of this FL DAW in 20 minutes! I think this is the best simple and accessiable tutorial for any FL begginner. Thank you so much!!!

[@TylerDane]

Thanks for this Navie. I've had FL studio for a while now, and I've looked around and pressed some buttons and checked out some of the boxes, and I guessed that the process was something like this, but I still felt uncertain about what I was doing and this was so reassuring and helpful to understand how it actually works. I'm going to be coming back to this video a lot!

[@RepeatFactor2]

Hey, how’s your Music Journey going so far? Have you become hooked on this Music drug like the rest of us? 😂. Hope it’s going great 🫡

[@TylerDane]

@@RepeatFactor2 I still don't really know what sounds to even use and work is taking up most of my mental capacity right now, so it's not really going at all :D

[@LilHurtJr]

Thank you so much bro. I got tired of sitting through a 3-5 hour FL studio tutorials, that was so nerve wrecking. Your 19 minute video taught me exactly what I wanted to know and needed to know. Thanks bro

[@LSDJ4Y]

other tutorials have made me so frustrated with their fast talking or opening apps with no context but this video was explained so unbelievably perfect its unreal thankyou!

[@MojoJojo-m8w]

i never knew much about plugins or even adjusting the notes, never been a heavy user of fl because i never sat and watched tutorials until this and already see a difference. im definitely going to be watching more.

[@its_henlxy333]

MY MAN just created my first little beat all because of you 🙏🤝 What seemed like a bunch of anger years ago had turned into excitement ! Thank you bradamon

[@DJToxiicon]

I decided to start learning how your patience. to make beats. I have no ideas how to make music, i just love music. Past 6 months after buying FL Studio. It was so overwhelming. I give up after the past few weeks, it just seems everyone think that the view knows everything. First time i feel empowered. I was a good beginning. Thanks for your patience.

[@theoutsiderprod]

Recapping after each chapter, and providing the visual path of steps learned is such a great way of teaching something like FL. You have a really great way of educating.

[@geoffo4582]

This is the best tutorial I've ever seen fullstop. i was able to replicate what you did in half an hour and now can probably make my own beat with your constant check in reminders in-between the video. Thank you so much Navie D you are a legend and have helped 30k people so far with the likes on this video, amazing.

[@LuhWhippaSnappa]

This is one of the most cleanest and simplified tutorials I've seen. Nice work!

[@juliangonzalez3541]

Hi to everyone out here,My name is julian im from Puerto Rico but I am located in Florida I'm a musician myself beside a Hvac service tech and a computer builder,you videos and your training skills really amaze me,cause I remember the first time I had FL studio back in 2004 Alotta the stuff on the software of FL Studio I've had to self taught myself to able to learn alotta it,But here years later someone like you teaching people how to even make beats and correct yourself on the melodies and get better and good are making beats if anyone wants2 get professional with it,I'm a guy that I'm always up to learn anything outta any humanbeing as long as it make me a better person tomorrow,but keep you good work and thanks for the videos and shut out to all the music makers out here,God blessed y'all

[@playlistlvl5445]

Thanks for keeping it simple and clear. I watched someone else's tutorial and was overwhelmed. I haven't even made any music before or played an instrument.

[@pdubnc]

Thanks Navie for making us all better!

[@NavieD]

Thank you for the support my friend

[@Guitarmaster7272]

16:36 is exactly what I came to learn, and it's a simple 2 click process that I couldn't figure out. Before this, I was manually recreating pattern 1 into a different pattern several times and I'm thinking to myself "there has to be an easier way than this" and it was this easy the whole time.

[@craigsdaddy4095]

he makes it look so easy haha.. just downloaded FL yesterday and spent a night checking it out, i'm so glad i checked for a tutorial now it explained more than i expected even, great video and very cool beard when i saw this guys beard i knew this was the correct tutorial and i was right.

[@virav2609]

Wow. I've had FL Studio for like a year now, but I never really used it because I had no idea how to and it was so so overwhelming that I never had the courage to start and actually learn it. And yet you just taught me things in 20 minutes that seem so simple and crack down the system to a much more understandable form. And for free! You have no idea how thankful I am. Liked and subscribed as soon as I watched it to the very end. Thank you so much!

I created beats on FL Studio 9 like 12 - 13 years ago. My computer broke off so I lost most of my beats and the software. Been wanting to come back to making beats for a long time and 2021 finally caught the trial version of FL 21 (or 20). It changed a lot so now I return to the full version of 21 and I'm so thankful for your tutorial. Def helps me to get back into it!

Would love a silent cookup video (maybe series?) from you

Then you never touch it and you wasted the money! Thanks again! SUBSCRIBED!

[@TeyanThuny]

sorry but its way too hard to use

[@BlakeAngel-q7j]

How badly do you want to be successful?

[@BlakeAngel-q7j]

Keep trying 💯

[@Lu_Ko_]

I said that same thing, but if you find a melody is too difficult, just start with a simple drum pattern, and try to make one at least every other day if not every day, and just work your way up from there. My stuff isn’t perfect, nor will I say that I have mastered music production, but I’ve been able to create some gems here and there only through countless other trial and error attempts. It’ll get easier the more you do, like riding a bike, or singing, etc. To make this short, if you’re really passionate about music and music production, but are currently feeling discouraged, don’t worry about it. We’ve all been there.

[@TeyanThuny]

@@Lu_Ko_ you are absolutely right, I made 2 beats already. Not crazy but it’s nice imo. I want to make beat for fashion runway cause I am a fashion designer student. I love beat like Kanye and The Alchemist

Congratulations. Keeping on coming back to the diagram after each section instead of just at the end is genious.

[@Zulek85]

Incredibly simple, effective and practical translation! Many years ago, when I was a teenager, a friend introduced me to FL while I was playing around with E-Jay and Magix Music Maker. FL was a nightmare for me (probably because it was just real software). And now I see that a simple translation is enough (well, I'm a bit older too).

[@banyarydym]

Best beginner guide video for FL Studio, highly recommend to anyone interested. Much respect Navie D.

[@shviin]

Very helpful! If anyone is having issues with the Navie D Minipack not working when you drag it into FL Studio you probably need to press "Extract All" on the folder, it should be above it as the only clickable option, this was my problem at first but it fixed it!

[@sludgee9983]

sounds great but, after extracting the folder I was only ably to drag in sounds individually, so the issue of delay comes up again and again when making melodies as i cant use the sounds as samples (a tutorial for the minipack would be nice!)

[@shviin]

@@sludgee9983 hmm, I'm still a noob at FL but I just dragged the whole folder into the left side of the screen where it has packs, downloads, the default sounds, etc and it may be a bit messy but it should all get in their, also favoriting sounds that you may use is very helpful to do instead of digging through them all the time

[@jennyhong6746]

Wow Navie…I am in complete awe. This is the first video of yours I stumbled upon, and after watching hours worth of related FL Studio tutorials from other channels, I am so happy I found this video of yours. In what I couldn’t grasp in hours of content from other creators, in 20 min, I finally get the basics of understanding FL Studio. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. The way you explained things, the way you took your time, and didn’t do much video cutting, the way from how you spoke to us, I truly appreciated it all and am a fan of your content now! Can’t wait to learn more. Cheers, Kyle

[@sonexcellencea]

THE BEST AND MOST SIMPLIFIED TUTORIAL I'VE SEEN. Because of This Man, I will buy FL. As I was looking for a permanent production DAW since I Mix in pro tools, used to be a Cubase person but it kind of look old now. I have Logic Pro, Studio One, Ableton Live Lite and cubase 8. Out of all FL acted fast at startup, Looked Cool, Sounded Great, but until today I was confused because the layout is different from my usual linear daws. But now I am officially an FL GANG after just 15 minutes tutorial. THANK YOU

[@stebridgwater648]

I like this overview of FL Studio because it covers all the basic features of beat making

[@junksep]

Lemme be plain honest, I've watched many FL Studio Beginner Tutorials by now, and absolutely no one could teach me this much this easily, as you just did in your video. I also rarely write comments, but after this video, I'd like to give you my (more or less xd) personal compliment. You explained it in a really good and much more importantly *understandable* way, so a beginner could easily follow along. It was not too fast, not too slow, and you always did a little wrap from what we've learned so far in-between (which was a great learning tecnique by the way). Also you showed the FLEX plugin, which was a fantastic discovery to me! It gives much more variety for certain music styles, and that's just one plugin of many :D At the end of the day, I feel much saver in this program now. All big thanks to you Sir, keep being great! - Greetings from Germany ✌🏻
