FL Studio - Complete Beginner Basics Tutorial

[@inthemix]

When I open the Synth, instead of using the GMS synth, try using a new synth called "FLEX". It sounds far better!

Nice

[@Cybersprite2008]

Very nice explanatory video! Early on, You mention a tutorial You've made, concerning the audio setup. I can't seem to see it in Your description though? The reason for my asking, is due to crackling/distorting sound, whenever the drum/snare, or whatever is playing. This was the case off the top, when I installed FL studio (restart didn't help). I have a creative soundblaster z soundcard. I'm assuming it has something to do with this.. Thx

[@inthemix]

Hi, Is the master channel of the mixer peaking into the red? If you have any peaks over 0dB it will distort. Please do let me know, We will get to the bottom of this :) Michael

[@desiordia3402]

I really like how organized your fl studio mixer and playlist are #mygoalstodoso its gonna take me a while but ill get there :)

[@Cybersprite2008]

In The Mix If the master channel is located in the top, next to the counter, then no - IT stays within acceptable limits, when I play some of the demos. I don't know if this is a clue, but when i pause or stop the music, there's an echo which very slowly fades out. I just changed the Device from asio to SPDIF-out (Sound blaster z) This improved the sound quality dramatically. I think this did the trick! Thank you for your reply!

This is actually a very good and straight forward tutorial. No having me ask questions or guess, no over-explaining elements, and brings all the different elements together in a language that is universal. I've seen plenty of DAW tutorials being new, but this is by far the best so far, and makes me confident about using the DAW the first time.

I bought FL producer version and despaired. I couldn't even find a menu. No delete, go back and years away from saving. I moved to Cakewalk but found it more picturesque and not the same high end quality. Back to FL and stumbled on these tutorials. This very video is the key to the door. I'm in now and learning. Exactly what I wanted. The snag with this DAW business is the terminology. It's alien to me. Pattern and all the rest of it is a change to everything I called things before and now have a reminder check sheet beside me to help me convert to DAW speak. Turns out I knew what path I wanted to take but it was all coded to FL DAW speak. No samples just constant process routine over and over untill I can confidently open from turning on my computer and swiftly open all required and load (arm, tweak, adjust) basic tunes and segregate to work each channel individually. A life ring flung to me a drowning man in a vast ocean of DAW.. I've now learned to doggy paddle and soon be taking my first strokes to swim. Great fluent articulate tutorials. Subscribed and downloaded as a concise reference. Many thanks.

Hey everyone, I feel disappointed in myself for this having to be the case, but I feel the need to be honest. Life stuff got me down hard during the time I wrote this comment and shortly thereafter, and I allowed time to slip me by, and didn't pursue making music. I know that it's super disappointing, and I feel like I've almost lied by keeping this comment up and letting others see it, but I'm not going to delete it because I know 300+ people resonated with how I felt at that exact moment. Genuinely, I am sorry I let you down. Even though I feel guilty, I feel like being honest here is going to be the most meaningful. I guarantee this - I am going to pursue music one way or another. It is my dream to make art that inspires people and shows them so much of the beauty of life. Even if I let myself slip, that won't keep me down forever. Thanks for asking about how things went, and I will respond to you all in 1 month to see how things have evolved if I remember or if someone is interested. My failure is just that - mine.

I was given FL Studio as a gift in 2011, and up until recently, I was so overwhelmed by the complexity of it that I never got past just using it to multi-track record. I would play with an effect or two on my recordings, but I never touched the piano role or the step sequencer. Never created a pattern ever. Not one. I've watched dozens of videos lately and have learned all kinds of interesting stuff about mic placement, effective EQing, compression, and recording live music in general... but none of them explained the sequencer, and how patterns work like this one just did. I saw the sequencer at the start, but it would quickly disappear (I never knew about 'detaching' something either - I assume that works with Edison too) and I never thought about after that. Now, at this moment, I am inspired! I am going to go make my first pattern! My first beat!! Here I go! Wish me luck.

Best FL Studio tutorial for beginners on KZbin! I'm an absolute beginner and all the other tutorials I've found on KZbin have been so overwhelming, but this was absolutely brilliant! Thank you!

[@rck211]

This is by far, the best tutorial I have found so far. I feel like I’ll be spending a lot of time on your channel! Thanks man! Keep up the good work! Cheers

[@bipmix]

I watched this a couple of years ago and thought it sounds great if you want to make pop music or whatever, but went off and did sound scape installations and forgot about it. I just returned to it, thinking, lets see I can make a track that seems even remotely interesting and wow, just changed my music horizon! Great work, Michael!

[@rivvy2138]

Your music's cool btw

[@athrunskye]

Does knowing how to play musical instruments necessary?

[@quinn9598]

@@athrunskye Not at all, if anything your brain will pick out what sounds good and what doesn't. For example, finding out which notes fit into a particular chord (chords make up the basis of most music) - you don't need to even know the notes, just keep experimenting until the notes harmonise and sound good together. I'd recommend going through a piano theory video on YT and making notes, there's a good 2h30 one which sounds looong but it will teach you a lot of the fundamentals of piano. You don't even need to sit through the entire thing to get a good grasp on the basics.

[@blasttrash]

@@quinn9598 do you have link for that music theory video which is 2 hours long? I know lypur had some of the best and comprehensive music theory videos, but they are old and super long.

[@pneumaofficial9581]

So far the only tutorial I've seen that takes it slow and doesn't require prior experience to music design. I bought FL Studio 2 years ago and never got into music design because I could never learn the software. Thank you for reeling me back in!

I've been playing on garageband for a couple weeks and just got the trial of fls. I was worried there wouldn't be any clear tutorials, but yours is perfect. These are going to takes loads of time off the learning process.

bro first day ever learning Fl studio, thank you for your help 6 years into the future. I will continue watching the remaining tutorials.

[@KingAm0]

I’m amazed how well this is explained. I’ve never heard a lot of these words, but the order and purpose of these menus and buttons makes complete sense. Only a couple other things I need to find out before I can actually make it work, but you’ve got more in depth videos on pretty much everything. Feels like I can finally move forward with making music.

[@chungusfungus6317]

Honestly once explained it's fairly intuitive. Thank you for breaking it down so nicely for us newbies! Can't wait to play with the full version after becoming familiar through the demo!

[@chrisperkins9709]

I have no clue about music creation, any of these programs or instruments, but this tutorial made it very clear that even an absolute beginner can start making something of their own. Thank you very much!

[@THU17]

Your tutorial videos are amazing. I decided to go back to creating music after 16 years. FL Studio is so easy to get into, but also offers incredible possibilities to those who master it. I am almost done with my first track, but there is so much more to discover and learn. This will be a fantastic journey!

[@NACHOMAN506]

Hello Michael! I've been producing Drum n Bass for nearly 20 years. I started out with 100% hardware, then transitioned to Fruity Loops at the time. After a few years, I switched to Ableton Live because "it was the trend." After almost two years of experimenting, I must say that the sound I get from FL Studio is superior to Ableton, both with the same export configuration and hardware. So, I decided to go back to FL. However, Ableton and FL are two completely different monsters, and I've almost forgotten how to use Image Line's software. Your channel has helped me a lot in rekindling my passion for music production, and my journey in FL Studio is much easier thanks to your tutorials.

[@Humatra]

i've been messing around on a friends FL studio for years, finally bought it. I found your videos and instantly subscribed and have been watching one or two every night, SUPER helpful, chill and clear. Great content, can't wait to watch them all.

If your GMS sounds all weird and distorted, click on it, see on the left hand side of the GMS master module it will say "basses" click on the program name drop down menu which lists all the different bass sounds. For some reason it makes the default "Agressive TE" make sure u change it to "Analog Bass 1 TE" to get the same sound as him. Hope this helped!

I am a big Cubase user, I own FL Studio but got away from it (older version, maybe 11) due to 3 things 1) Lack of time signature change 2) non-customizable drum map 3) lack of tempo change. However I want a hardware interface for the step sequencer and I bought an Akai Fire so here we go again. This is an EXCELLENT tutorial, extraordinarily professional.
