Trying To Use FL STUDIO To Make DUBSTEP // Music Production with Neddie

Exactly how FL users try ableton for the first time.

[@doublechindoge7]

@@NeddieOfficial Ye that's fair, I guess I should be glad you found the piano roll, because my first time that was the only thing I couldn't find. I was putting my melodies in the step sequencer (which automatically sets the length of all notes to infinite, since it's really only supposed to be for drums).

[@St4bilityMusic]

6:37 "THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, WHY ARE YOU ABLE TO PUT A SAMPLE IN A MIDI TRACK?!" This is the biggest confusion of literally everyone who uses something other than FL. You can also put an automation clip in a MIDI track, a sample in an automation lane, a MIDI clip in an audio track, and so on. There are pretty much no rules in that department with FL.

[@boi5002]

good lord this just made me feel pain.

[@boi5002]

All the tracks can have samples or midi in them, seeing u freak out over a kick in the 3x oscillator lol

[@procorefritz4968]

I'm glad Neddie tried. He's great with Ableton and produces solid music with that DAW. Exploring FL Studio or any other DAW is going to be bumpy as they are all different workflows. He did pretty good for having no knowledge.

[@ab-bx4xz]

The way he selected a pattern is the most complicated of all ways you can do this

[@standardzdubz3108]

this was a headache... i use fl studio and 90% of what you did was the hard way

[@standardzdubz3108]

@@NeddieOfficial you should make another video with fl but take a few days to feel around the daw ... also you need to go to settings vst plugins and hit search for plugins and it should add them ..hit the star to add into the daw

[@squeebbb]

@@NeddieOfficial ableton seems like you spend much more time in drop down menus and having to work thru menus. I like the way FL Studios workflow is, for instance, with placing patterns into the playlist. All you needed to do really was click "Pattern #" near the stop and play buttons and then click with the pencil or brush tool into the playlist. It was a good attempt at using it though, I like that you went in completely blind lol

[@Hardcrafter2807]

I've tried A LOT of DAWs before getting FL Studio. I've tried Cakewalk, LMMS, Studio One, Ableton, Renoise, and Cubase, but FL Studio just felt so much more intuitive to me. I guess that's also because I once used a cracked version of FL in my teens and I got used to the way it worked. I totally understand the confusion you had throughout this video though. Especially when Ableton is all you knew before.

[@stringz311]

Bro you've been killing it in Audio Combat!! ✌️

[@TredecimMusic]

I’d like to say as someone who used ableton but then went fl that FL is confusing for the first 10-20 minutes till you adapt. Do a part 2- and boom! Efficient song making.

[@NeddieOfficial]

I guess I'm an exception LOL it took me like 1h 20m to record this whole thing

Nah I'm ngl. The difference in DAWs isn't a small thing to 9vercome. I used to use FL but I struggle at times because eit just seems so overcomplicated

[@Salaya]

FL Es la VIDAAAAAAA

[@yashadityasehgal2305]

As an FL User who just tried out ableton. I noticed a few things. When I tried Ableton, I tried extensively to use shortcuts using ctrl and shift. I also realised that you can put different tracks on the same line of the playlist, hence why Neddie was so confused when he could put the kick in the 3x osc's playlist spot. I also noticed he kept dragging along the playlist expecting it to do something. My conclusion: FL studio is more based on keyboard shortcuts and Ableton is focused on having more things in one place.

[@NeddieOfficial]

Definitely agreed! I really prefer ableton's way of having everything right there in your face, rather than having submenus and such to learn

[@BottleOfCocaCola]

I loved this as an FL user lol. That's how i feel while watching Ableton stuff lol

[@duvanr]

The problem with FL Studio new users is that they are so used to their own DAW that they don't even take a moment to read stuff and try to figure out FL Studio workflow... They're so impatient. BTW it was fun to see his brain melting.

[@poondauwu]

it would be a lot less entertaining if this video was just Neddie googling tutorials for everything

heres a tip with fl studio, below your tool rack there are 3 icons, the piano, the waveform, and the line tool (idk). if you click on the piano icon, it will take you to all of your midi tracks you've created. if you click on the waveform icon, it will take you to all of the audio files you've imported in the project file. if you click on the line icon, it will take you to all of the automation clips you've made in the project. i hope this helps you in some way when using fl studio again. if you will that is lol
