Learn the Basics of Arcade in Under 5 Minutes | Arcade Quickstart

[@stefrance2]

Arcade is brilliant pièce of software. The more I dig in it the more I see the endless possibilities. The only missing feature to my eyes is a granular synth section in the instrument view ! Well done output. Ps : another request just in case you are missing some homework … the exact same arcade accessible on iPad.😘

[@Outputsounds]

excellent suggestions!

[@MrRacecourser]

@@Outputsounds 🤑🤑🤑 take our money! Granular synths, here we come!

[@BTTRSWYT]

There's a technically granular synth but actual granular parameters I'm not sure. Haven't downloaded that one yet. Its called particles I think

[@Sey_Les]

Man I could just be thinking too literal...but why not take a synth instrument on arcade and throw a grain delay on it, but sync it 100% and mess with the grains?? Or just be dicey an turn that delay on lol

[@Sey_Les]

I literally use this tool everyday. It isn't that bad on the cpu, until you've got Ike 4 open at the same time lol. But it's the best plug in I've ever came across when it comes to sample quality and variety..... the variety is.....nuts. I'm not going anywhere.

I just subscribed ☺️ to arcade today and it is just insane! 😊 I will definitely use this tool to make my beats bang even harder!

[@oneupnerd]

The one thing that seems to be lacking as far as producing music with arcade is how to start recording tracks. I've looked high and low and I don't see anything that teaches you how to record the music, unless recording has to be a separate software all together, hope to hear from you soon, I really do love arcade, but I need to figure out how to record music XD

[@Outputsounds]

Arcade is best used as a plugin inside another DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) to record music. FL Studio, Ableton, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Garageband, and a number of others. Plenty of free options out there as well depending on whether you're windows or Mac!

[@davidstarbright]

I have the same problem with Arcade

[@Sey_Les]

Dudes......it says its a plug in 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[@xyzyzx1253]

Bruh, you’ve got to use it as a plug in for a DAW, and then it’s really really simple routing to track your live performances as direct recordings or both midi and audio. Audio is great for then doing secondary layers of processing and arranging

[@Sey_Les]

@@xyzyzx1253 I thought this was the funniest comment yet lol. Clearly says its a VST

[@BTTRSWYT]

Just got the trial and I'm already astounded that its only 10 bucks a month. A worthy complement to NI komplete now.

[@BTTRSWYT]

@@Outputsounds damn you guys are good with customer engagement, probably more than any brand I’ve interacted with so far. Half considering getting it again just for that (and I have time now)

[@magjanos6567]

Best plugin ever!😘

[@TimClarkeJazzTrumpet]

would love some less processed, bread and butter kits of instruments, in common styles (funk, rock, jazz, latin). I've got my own ideas about fx processing - I'm looking for raw sounds to process/mangle on my own.

[@Sey_Les]

They got them kind of drum kits towards the very bottom of the line page, am I wrong?

[@georgemix]

As sound samplers, plugins, and everything a music producer needs is brilliant, but as fluidity it doesn't help you much,Please make a tutorial on how to drag the sample directly into the playlist arranger.Anyway, your idea is brilliant ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@FGBeatz_Official]

True, i have Arcade since yesterday. The samples that you Chose can Play on Piano Roll. I Seen yesterday you can Go to the Full samples, and when you klick on this, one key on your Keyboard can Play the Full sample that you hear when you Chose one. Sorry for my englisch but i Hope you understand me

[@georgemix]

@@FGBeatz_Official Thx for the tips 😊

[@levanah_lillith]

So excited 😊

[@IAMDJECKO]

I noticed that the scrool function it virtually non existant, when trying to scroll down on the plugin.

[@VioletRobots]

Cool this.

[@do_happywork]

Which parameters can be assigned midi controllers? Only the 4 macros or every parameter in the tweak view?

[@Outputsounds]

For any circular knob, right click > learn MIDI. You can assign a variety of parameters in the Tweak Page this way.

[@FreeAgeMusicGroup]

how do i even make beats and save them stem by stem

[@ladysophia85]

I've just downloaded the 30 day free trial but I can't seem to see the 'tweak' button on any page anywhere. Is that supposed to be included in the free trial or is it just when you're subscribed and paying? Thanks :)

[@Outputsounds]

The "Tweak" button is visible once a Kit is loaded - either Sampler or Instrument Kits. Check 1:47 in this video. The 30day trial includes all features and sounds! If you're unable to find the button, or if it is still not visible - reach out to [e-mail] and they will help!

[@ladysophia85]

@@Outputsounds thank you! Loving the program BTW! I wanted to enter your comp 'made with Arcade but it's only for people in Canada and the US. Do you ever do competitions that includes the UK?

[@itzbillly3]

I subscribed, yet two full days and endless google searches, emails to output arcade support, no response, I cannot get arcade to record in pro tools or logic pro x... i see the meter reading, and hear the sounds, but it refuses to record. I'm a couple hours away from cancelling my subscription.

how tf you download the music you edited into your computer and put into a daw

[@Outputsounds]

You can open Arcade within any DAW-which one are you using? Were you creating music in standalone mode?

[@jerrycarson1100]

how to change the scales?

[@Outputsounds]

At 1:41 it shows where this is located-lower right corner

[@a.grishchenko]

How to change A440Hz to A432Hz !?

[@Outputsounds]

You can adjust the pitch of individual samples on the tweak page, but there isn't global control (beyond setting the key). Contact [e-mail] if you need more detailed info, and thanks for using Arcade!

[@hlqa7938]

[@axxojaxx2510]

I looks cool but i won't do another subscription.

[@davidstarbright]

this is bullshit FL studio is better because they have a platform to work from. arcade only has samples so you coudnt make any music with it

[@Outputsounds]

Arcade works as a plugin within any DAW (we 💛 FL Studio!) to bring a library of high-quality Samplers and Instruments into your recording environment. If you are still subscribed to Arcade, give it a try within FL Studio 😉.
