What would you use Patcher for? Do you have an idea already? Let us know! :)

[@zoftlegd8521]

I honestly like the growl modifier idea! That sounds really cool! I want my growls to sound more vowly and i want them to hit hard. I had no clue this is what patcher did! This is amazing! Thank you!

[@edmcity3072]

Hey ghosthack can u tell me How do you change the background image or color of control surface plz!!!!!!

[@marcinrau2817]

@@edmcity3072 Add a bevel in the colour you want your Background to be and make it really big xD

[@JakkeJakobsen]

You can probably make mad stuff by using Patcher in the Channel Rack too. You could run separate effects on each synth layer without using different mixer channels, with simple controls. You can actually have patcher inside patcher, so you can really go mad and make one patch and have premade effects inside the first one. How deep can we go? 🤔

[@starrymsc]

@@JakkeJakobsen Inception... Patcher inside Patcher...

[@medass1n143]

making fl plugins is a ton of fun i made a couple of plug ins and its insane how i can just apply my own little sauce that no one has and its amazing

[@clast]

It's all about connecting the dots.

[@zach0736]

Indeed fellow

[@primordia8133]

Great tutorial, after 3 years of using fl it's time to get to grips with patcher. Thanks a lot, best tutorial on this I've found. Oh and you had your glasses on upside down at the end there mate.

[@luismakesbeats352]

This video is GOLD... can't believe I've been sleeping on Patcher for so long.

[@futuristicstoic]

Awesome tutorial bro, thanks a lot! This is actually one of the best tutorials out there 🔥🔥

[@kennethwelsby2143]

This is very informative! Thank you for your time and hard work making this information available.

[@NordwestOficial]

By far one of the best videos I've ever seen, save do Brasil.

[@maverickpanda]

Haha I've been using Fruity Formula Controller to limit knob effects :P

[@xtocy96]

Fruity X-Y-Z Controller is best one, with it you can adjust the curve, acceleration and speed of the input and output.

[@grimwerx9071]

I was just thinking during your last live stream.. man I wish I knew more about the patcher. Great content!

[@kxdet1]

IVE BEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!

[@edmcity3072]

Dope tutorial man 🔥🔥

[@JBroadway]

Great video! I've never thought to use the fruity envelope controller in that sort of way.

Thanks for this tutorial man! Very Insightful

[@MadazzaMusik]

Actually this was really good video m8🤩🖖

[@jshstuff]

Little trick for faster customization: while browsing the list of control styles, right click a style to load it without closing the list

[@jshstuff]

I also realized that this applies to many menus in FL studio. Often right click will select the list item without closing the list.

[@Aonoexorcist100]

So cool!

[@klassikdapro6693]

Thank you for this tutorial bro...it inspired me to mess around with the patcher

[@lil_vevi]

awesome mate

[@maverickREAL]

When I was first starting out making dubstep and EDM, I tried to find packs with premade wub noises. One of the packs I used for this was a Ghosthack pack. Imagine my surprise hearing that name again while looking for videos on Patcher, haha Not finished yet but so far this is pretty in-depth, what I've learned is pretty helpful

[@eti32neg.55]

Truely interesting ! Will masters FL that well.🏄‍♂🛠

[@LogicalShivam]

i really underappreactied the patcher wehn i first started using FL now after two years of making beats i can say that this is crazyyyyy yoooo lessssssss gooooo ooo

[@B.elephantMedia]

Thank you!

[@GurcharanSinghBaghi]

Great explanation sir.....I become your fan......Love from India

[@lincelukose4683]

Thank you very much brother for this video, it was a valuable content

[@sio-salt8979]

Very interesting!

[@damianalien6265]

I built a tool in FL designed like an analog Rack. It is hilarious, But also works. in words what it does its an impulse modulator effects Rack. That way the impulse can be an automatic envelope, To other parameters you send it too. Say you use a sample it has a certain movement and you can't automate that movement into the effects, Then that creates it own envelope then you can just add to what you want, does it automatic that way.

[@jayarecordsofficial]

Thanks a TON

[@TwisterDS]

Endlich mal einer, der es mal richtig erklärt, Danke

[@Ghosthack]

Gerne! :)

[@HueyNight]

Amazing!

[@NoizProofContent]

About 2 years late to the party but this was a great video. Thanks!

[@---dl3rh]

Excellent - I use more formulas, I put some of my work in KVR presets I mean the KVR site of the Preset section related to FL Studio.

[@kevingal8967]

nice video!

[@OmaxFullOn]

Thank you 🔥❤️

[@yrkobeats8966]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!

[@simonimukielo308]

NICE THANKS

[@prooxymusic]

Every dubstep producer who works in Ableton use Virtual Riot's Washout Rack, would be cool if you would share your Washout Rack which you made in a patcher for FL Studio producers. I am sure a lot of people would use it to make smoother transitions. Keep it up man.

[@jesh2478]

Because of this tutorial, I was able to make my own riser, and growler patcher plugin. Can you also make a tutorial how to link fruity peak controller inside patcher?

[@Overxpossed]

x maping is sick!

[@phixphixation7261]

Hold down Alt when you click on a plugin in Patcher lets you keep it open at all times, Alt clicking on another keeps the other one open too.

[@AaronPushesWood]

Need a bit of noise/distortion and even compression on that knob to make it authentic to a vintage phone

[@broccoli7645]

Thx very good video Can you make other episodes with patcher please ?

[@gxxnie]

You're such a goat

[@almamartineznunez1723]

Hello, I find your tutorials fantastic, thank you very much, but I have a question. How can I control the mix of a preset? Let's say I have the equalizer parameters ready and I only want to mix 30% and the equalizer does not have a nob for mixing, in the reverb I can with the dry and wet but I don't know how in the equalizer ,sorry if my question is very silly thank you very much for your attention

[@albertorobinson7611]

Dude sorry for the interruption, do you explain a little more in depth the vfx color channel

[@jaymesonp]

Please release a video about the noise "plugin" I am dying to have something to add and control white noise on top of sounds!!!! Please!!!!!!... maybe with a download link?

[@Ghosthack]

We take that on our list ;)

I m not an engineer but I want to Collab with you one day because I have learned everything myself and you are great who is teaching great minor things on whole youtube thanks 🙏

[@gigi6552]

In spite of Maximus I used Stereo Shaper (In order to do Mono I choose preset "LR to LL", thnx FL Forum) I pretended to make less charge on CPU. But when effect is applied the sounding is diferent from maximus (the result is the same on 100% Knob tweak)

[@dj_instruments937]

How do I get one knob to control multiple frequencies?

[@sanelekhwelasa]

💙💙❤❤❤big love my nigga

I want to control with Patcher Serum instead LFO's

[@bnaybasnet8839]

Can we get some of your patches??? They seem super helpful or might be alternative to many expensive paid plugins😅

[@jshstuff]

Check out Frank Pole's youtube channel. He's made some incredible presets and shares them for free

[@thearchlich7273]

Is there something like this that works with other DAWs?

[@jaderene]

This video was incredibly helpful and useful!!!! I'm going to follow this plugin tut and make my own with Fruity Reverb 2, Fruity Love Filter, and Fruity Phaser!!!! Thanks Will from Ghosthack and Thank You everyone else at Ghosthack!!!!

[@aidahestonmusic]

Do you know how to do this through MAX LIVE (Ableton)

[@afkgamer4474]

Hello, I have a bit of a specific question. How do you make a channel whose output is multiple sounds (like with the layer) BUT some of the sounds only have a limited range, for example: Timpani+Strings layered together, but I want the timpani to only play notes under let's say C4/(C5 in FL Studio). How do I do that? Thanks in Advance!

[@itamarbiton8888]

hi man tnx for that... can you upload that patch ?

[@chucktheduck8125]

How do I create a "connect sidechain here" button?
