How To Create Chill Out And Ambient Sounds Part 2: FX Soundscape

This is the part 2 of my Chill Out & Ambient sound creation tutorial (check out part 1 on • How To Create Chill Ou... which will show you how to create a lush pad sound). In this part I'll show you how to create experimental and weird fx soundscape using Fruity Granulizer and a drum sample. Check out the non-video version and download links for the FL Studio project files and sample packages via my website: howtomakeelectr...

14:00 hahhaha that could be some weird alien. I wouldn't think of that sound being in a chill audio. That would give me nightmares. hehe interesting vids.

[@Lefterinho7]

Thank you for the most informative and concise u-tube tutorials ever! I've watched hundreds but I gotta say that yours are the best. Keep up the excellent work!

[@dominoboy08]

It sounds like a sick robot sleeping.

[@FlyGuy8701]

That is an "odd" way of looking at it. :)

[@dsquare4348]

I've never thought that Fl Studio could ever scare me :D

[@Dakcha]

I love the Chill out Ambient Sound videos you're doing! There's so many videos on youtube about Electro, Dubstep etc. but these are unique. Just want to say thank you for helping me so much.

[@TheEpicTeatime]

It just gets trippier and trippier...

[@howtomakeemusic]

Thanks for watching this, everyone! I admit this is a bit on the experimental side (alien taking a poop like someone said hehe), but hopefully it gave some ideas how you can create your own unique soundscapes with the Granulizer 8)

[@jorgenlannock]

transformer sound. just love it. made my own version thanx to you. never knew it was so easy to make that sound. feel s like a complete new world opens for me :-). thx!!

[@howtomakeemusic]

Hi, you can do that using the Time Stretch function in the Channel Settings of the sample - double click it to open the Channel Settings and adjust the Time -knob under the Time Stretching -section.

[@howtomakeemusic]

Hi, I'm not that familiar with D&B, but I'm pretty sure I'm able to put out something in the near future!

[@supbra1]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT I JUST SHIT MY PANTS 10:48 A whole new world just appeared in front of my eyes *-*

[@Lastrevio]

same reaction

[@shivertonemusic]

Nice! Can't wait. I really have learned a ton of stuff with FL Studio after I started watching your tutorials!

[@Tsharkeye]

Loved the mouse dancing at the end xD

[@bigadorabletyrant5362]

This would be a better tutorial for a neurofunk soundscape than a chillout one. lol

[@HybridDragons]

Your mouse movements are hilarious! Expressive. Nice work bro!

[@jonreed7104]

Pretty much everything I've learned on Fl Studios is because of you. Now it's my job. Than you so much. You make awesome videos.

[@czechmex88]

Wow this will work fantastic in psybient works!

[@TutorialesEstudiantes]

Incredible tutorial, every step was explained in perfect detail, thank you very much sir!

[@patrikradacic8640]

Gimme part 3 :) Loving it. I want to make ambient music like metroid prime and this is touching it :)

[@howtomakeemusic]

Thanks! Either vocals, synth programming or drums.

[@nightcoreisbestcore3886]

i just subbed, i love your tutorials because most of the time you use built in plugins so i can follow along!

[@OhPepsi]

Love the dancing paintbrush at the end

[@Rangotz]

Wow, thank you for explaining and introducing fruity granulizer, it's gonna be veeery useful for my psytrance production :3

[@chandjor0009]

Had so much fun experimenting that I had to keep coming back to this vid for like an hour or so haha. Edit: Mine turned out creepy as hell. lol

[@milawdub20]

this is seriously darkstep material!! thanks alot

[@thirdEYEw]

FUCKING AWESOME DUDE, I did not even consider the granulizer, now it is GOD Thank you so much

[@Kenoji8]

Heh. And I wonder why I love FL Studio so much sometimes. Sick tutorial, man. Definitely have to keep this in mind and watch some more of these videos.

[@itspuneetkapoor]

I'm a big follower of your tutorials. Been a great learning experience so far. I have a question. I'm trying to use the plugin 'Sawer' in FLS 9...Is there a way by which I can stop the sounds (from Sawer presets) from playing continuously? I'm using fruity free limiter to cut them off but I wanna know if there's some sorta setting in Sawer itself that could cut them after a certain point. Please find time to respond. Cheers!

[@C4Par1]

Insert -> Audio clip -> Load (drag and drop) sample into it -> Click it -> Open playlist (there are all Tracks/Patterns) -> Just click next to a track to "draw" the Audio clip -> In the channel settings (the popup with the sound wave at the bottom) there is a label called "Time stretching" -> Tweak the "MUL"-Knob and see what happens! :) Tip: Click the drop-down menu next to the "TIME"-knob and select "AUTO" to maintain the original pitch....pretty useful for vocals.

[@poweroftheweez]

great tutorial. I've been trying to figure out a way to do what you explained at 10:36 for ages. Thanks!

[@FrankeyLUG]

now your come-back is worth 2c but, the fact that you did and axplain yourself is realy worth a $1000.00 Well done! and thank you. [ my appologies aswell - I had just spent 3hrs admiring Petri's work along with other great artists when I stumbled accros about 8x bad mouthing comments. I gues when I got to yours, my fuse lit. ] Thanx for being a MAN - Take Care!

[@zacland]

Very nice Tuto... Where is Part 3 ?! :D

[@diaz9220]

Thanks for explaining everything so well!

[@wjmoosting]

Good tutorial! Easy to understand :) keep 'em coming!

[@shivertonemusic]

Awesome sound! Any hints about what's gonna be in part 3? If it's gonna be a part 3 :P

[@Nishit345]

It sosunds exactly like transoformers transofrming ! Great work @howtomakeemusic

[@guitarguy316]

Hey chill out ...this guy is amazing at tweaking! If someone couldn't afford Nexus or the like, he can definitely make you sound just as damn close for free...Give him credit! Of course you would have to be somewhat into creating music yourself to respect something like this.

[@brothlick]

i am sooo glad i subscribed to you. i love your tuts

[@McGuirkFM]

I agree, a dnb tut would be wicked helpful, i dont think i suck at making dnb, but i definately need some pointers

[@JasonCtutorials]

Cool it's like those special movie effects for aliens.

[@gradea1636]

Little mouse dance at the end! Crack me up!!

[@8thlvlMage]

At 5:07 we hear the elusive Beastie Boys in the distance. If you listen closely you will hear their mating call, "Intergalactic."

[@Lastrevio]

true

[@_zyrix]

This is pretty amazing :) !

[@anubiskaz]

wow!thats so awesome!good stuff mate!

[@Seviexe]

Thank you kindly for your hard work

[@FlyGuy8701]

I think it sounds like cars of an advanced alien city passing by me on the busy street of the strange world.

[@adambebek]

im your fan xD (from indonesia). thanks for the tutor-videos. there are very help me. keep posting man xD sorry for my bad english. just waiting for another videos xD thanks xD

[@BrennFilm]

what I'm still looking for is your info box that floats on your screen. I can;t seem to get that work. How do you get that?

[@nopeeeee69]

Hey there, i would like to ask, can you make some effects like in this song North Sunset-Alone At The Beach. Those kinda like siren sounds in the background creates such a atmosphere and it would be nice if you could teach something like that

[@dj8ubble]

more tutorials for FX Soundscapes please :) !

[@ExtendedSpace]

Hey is it okey if i use this on my next Trance track? :O Will give you some creadits and a link to this video :)

[@B_rye8]

Request can you do a Benny Benassi Style sound? :) Like Illusion or something :)

[@WTFisMYname24]

hey , i got a big favour to ask of you! i cannot find a tutorial, or any video for that matter of how to change the tempo for a specific sample , but only for that one sample while not chanign anything else in the project :| could u possibly help me out?

[@Limpanbizket]

Mind = Blown'd!

[@Electr0nicMusicLab]

How can i recreate these effects in a different plugin, I don't use FL, I have logic, what Granular plugin would you recommend?

[@HardeepSinghMuzik]

You are awesome and I love your mouse dance :P

[@brycehoff]

was wandering if u knew how to make a reverse synth or reverse pad and if so can u make a tut on it...

[@OfficialForustan]

NICE SOUND ! :D

[@howtomakeemusic]

Well this sound is aimed more for ambient than chill.

[@IIPervKittehII]

That is awesome!

[@GAG4IT]

thats some space age transformers kinda shit! - I LOVE IT lol

[@Kittani1977]

Looks more like it was aimed at movie effects design. I could see a similar method employed to make the transforming sound in the new Transformers movies.

[@likeM1NiMaL]

so nice man!

[@tarantula_7u863]

Great! Now I can be like Blank Banshee!

[@THEFaMe0019]

Now I can give my friends nightmares :D

[@psyhead07]

[@ZachyDoodles]

This is some apocalyptic shit right here.

[@Lastrevio]

THE CREEPY MOUSE DANCE

[@teatoxic8563]

can i make a rethmical fx for trance, like in the intro?

[@alexboy2111]

Can you show me how to make a static FX type of thing. Commonly used by 123Mrk

[@alexboy2111]

BTW not white noise. Im talking like crackling kinda sound. Something that sounds like a fire crackling type of thing. Like in 123Mrk's intros.

[@rtfggj]

This guy is fucking ridiculous. I love him

[@Exisiance]

You can use the same technique to make an amazing reese bass

[@Nickk888SAMP]

Its more for Horror Games/Musik then Chill/Ambiente ^^

[@exabyte00]

[@supbra1]

[@OhPepsi]

[@WTFisMYname24]

okay :D somewhat what i ment, THANK YOU ALOT

[@tom_stephen]

"How To Create Chill Out And Ambient Sounds" - just friendly reminder, "ambient" genre contains dark ambient, which is - by definition - used to create dark atmosphere, more likely making you uncomfortable sometimes than chilling you out.

[@BrunoIniesta]

This reminds me to Godzilla's last movie.

[@arja3l]

i can't see download link for sample

[@LPrulzcrossover]

i think i'll have nightmares... nice tutorial anyway

[@NINedStark]

Like a Robot Dragon scream, haha

[@TetrapakProdzekt]

[@Whitesock12345]

[@cre8ive65]

Sounds like you sampled a lawnmower and threw a shit ton of reverb on it! XD

[@Mi3rdaDeyoutuB]

[@HonoraryBreathTaker]

LMAO at this sound, however tutorial is great. Thanx.

[@Sidetrack1993]
