if you going to put so much energy into this why not put it into learning a normal software like Ableton Live or Cubase?

FL is just a toy, maybe it will take you some longer time but you will see why eventually, it's very limited...

I know Infected once put their older tracks source files for Schism Tracker on their website and you could download them and see everything they way they done it. I am sure you can still find them over the net. I believe that would cover everything you pretty much need to know about arrangement.




Bullshit mate, its not 1999 anymore.
FL is way more developed then u might think it is. check for your self. Its not about that anymore, its about how you are using it.
Sure Ableton and cubase might be more proffesional daws but can pretty much do the same things in all of them, it's about taste rather then brand.
Logic seems to be the most hardcore daw nowdays imo tho.

bOm..





i agree!! i use FL and i like and is not limited ahahah

ohhh! please tell me where are the limits of flstudio?

tell me what you do in cubase/logic/ableton (exept of the live capabilities live has) that you cant do in fl?

or maybe is it the sound quality?

there are no toys in art just tools!          http://www.landmark-recordings.com/

and you my man i know its frustrating in the beginning but even if we share some flps nothing good comes out of that.

take a track you like import into fl and try to see how the aragment goes how the track progresses and incorporate in ur music.

sharing flps its just another way to make us all sound the same!


better make mediocre music thats urs 100% and your experimentation brings something new to the table. than a super produced well structured track that sounds like it came from the psychedelic factory.. a clone.. same shit with a different name!!

Figured out how to already, yet on some finer points, its nice to see how other people make use of things...
Reverb settings, delays, synth presets can all be used without compromising someones work, yet adding to the overall Psy feel.
If you listen to the tracks already made, nothing i've ever made sounds like the style its meant to...
So its not about cloning, yet advancing from a firm foundation in techniques.           www.wizanda.com www.soundcloud.com/wizanda

some stuff that annoys me in FL (compared to Ableton):
1. you can't automate the same way as in ableton
2. you can't wrap samples the same way without using special plugins
3. hate the FL gui compared to other daws

Well, Wizak is right to say that it's what you know to use bext, I agree with that. For me it is limiting after I worked with other DAWs, for others maybe not, so if what I said doesn't work with you then don't stick to it

And yea Logic is very cool, I loved the way you interconnect devices with the GUI tool, really really nice!

Last time I've checked with FL I really didn't like these things:
1. you can't assign automation the same way as in ableton, while in Ableton you can use both MIDI and PC Keyboard to assign midi events to absolutely any button/knob visible in the software GUI.
2. you can't wrap samples the same way without using special plugins.
3. hate the FL gui compared to other daws.
4. I found it crippling that you always had a limited number of cells (like 8 or 16 or so) for a pattern, then if you need less you need to go change the size in the menus, bah.

Well, Wizak is right to say that it's what you know to use best, and I totally agree with that. For me it is limiting after I worked with other DAWs, for others maybe not as much, so if what I said doesn't work with you then don't pay too much attention

And yea Logic is very cool, I loved the way you interconnect devices with the GUI tool, really really nice!

just because FL has a fast to be familiar GUI it doesn't make it less professional. Indeed I'm a fan of 'keep it simple'!:)

sorry to say but it seems that is a user related issue with fl than the program as it is..

i can automate perfectly everything in fl..

wrap samples like what?

gui is a matter of taste.

you can have clips now as long as you want.. if i get what you meen!           http://www.landmark-recordings.com/

as far as I know, from my last interaction with FL you could never do something like this:






I mean automating not only your synth's filters and stuff like that but you can assign midi/keyboard keys to control anything you can see in the gui. You can control absolutley everything that is clickable in that program except for maybe 3-5 buttons that have no practical use in mixing like expanding a track/folder.

Warpping (notice how he zooms in and out in the sample view by dragging the mouse up/down, very useful):











It's not only for changing the starting position, you can stretch single slices, I use this feature in every track.

It's better to try/see once then hear 1000 times.

Boring story short, it's an endless argument what is better then the other so I am not going to argue with anybody about this. I don't want to argue what is better coffee or tea, you like tea I like coffee, as long as we can share the same kitchen space I am happy. If you like FL and you master of your trade, good for you keep it that way. For me, I like Ableton Live and I prefer it over any other DAW on the market today.

Cheers!

yes i agree but again you compare 3 uses of ableton that are aimed at live performance yes it can be used to make music but its mainly a live thing.

the first is doable in fl also but... its useless cos its more for live use.           http://www.landmark-recordings.com/

Do any of you find you like to dismantle things, to really understand how they work? Anyone got any well put together Goa or Psy?

Though made loads of progress composing lots of different styles since first posting this; still really needing something that would call phat, with just FL-plug-ins, to understand the overall composition principles in detail.           www.wizanda.com www.soundcloud.com/wizanda

Hello bro, weŽll first of all I dont know why you want to imitate someones elses music, I mean, music comes from your mind and your feelings, you dont really need anything if you are a creator, just be creative and try extremly hard, if after that you still cant get it maybe its that you are not meant to be musician (sometimes happen). Every real artist makes his music his own way because he is expressing himself, get that very clear because if you dont you will never come out with anything good/original. So dont take this the bad way but do yourself a favor and stop looking for that many answers, just focus and remember that you are CREATING not IMITATING. Also what might help you is getting into some instrument ( I specially like piano ) and get some lessons so you can better understand how music works. Hope this helps you bro.           ProtoDrive https://soundcloud.com/protodrive
