Thank you so much Forbidden!

Miscreant · 12-21-2005, 02:27 AM

You are the fucking shit, thanks man!

Isent you a PM dude

ChAAPY · 12-21-2005, 04:10 AM

You seriously are the shit for taking the time to do that. Thanks again for the program and samples to bro. How long with this tutorial be up? I want to save it to my computer but I don't know how.

ChAAPY · 12-21-2005, 04:55 AM

Everyone should post some clips of what they make up when using this tutorial. I know I'm gonna post a full song when I get used to using it.

modern death · 12-21-2005, 05:09 AM

Funny how I was just thinking about opening up FL and learning how to use it, then I saw this thread. :P :weird:

Deviated · 12-21-2005, 05:37 AM

Thanks Forbidden, I just got F.L. 5 and this will help me big time! But where can I get good drum samples? Is D.K.F.H. the best?

F0RBIDDEN · 12-21-2005, 09:42 AM

And ChAAPY, to save the webpage in Internet Explorer, just go File>Save As, and make sure the "type" drop down menu has "Web Page Complete" selected....I don't plan on taking it down at any point, but you might as well save it anyways.

F0RBIDDEN · 12-21-2005, 09:43 AM

Also, people are wondering if I am using a different sample for my "Blast Snare" then for my regular snare, I'm not, it's just the same sample in a different channel with the volume turned down a bit to sound more realistic, saves time instead of velocity mapping every blast.

kid vengeance · 12-21-2005, 10:45 AM

clever, were you on peyote when you thought of that?
do you smoke weed?

Haha, nope I'm sober as a judge!

porphyria · 12-21-2005, 10:55 AM

this looks great, I started to learn fruity loops and I get how to setup the songs in the automation pallete, but I got discouraged when I couldn't figure out how to change tempo's as, some parts of songs are super super fast and I couldn't find any way to do it so I started looking for other programs, couldn't find anything that looked easy enough.

modern death · 12-21-2005, 01:13 PM

THHHHAAAAANNNKKKK YOOUUUUUU. :jerkoff1f

self mutilated · 12-21-2005, 03:43 PM

when i pick the samples and put them up i can't hear them.. do you know anything that i'm not doing

ElementGuitar · 12-21-2005, 04:36 PM

This program looks fifty times harder to program then the one I use. I have a question, is it possible to import midi sequences into Fruity Loops and use the wave files of my own one shots?

ElementGuitar · 12-21-2005, 04:39 PM

Good job on writing this shit out for everyone Adam. You probably cleared up ten hours worth of work for people struggling to figure out the program. Awesome.

That's what I'm saying. So what are you using that's fifty times easier then Fruity Loops???

F0RBIDDEN · 12-21-2005, 07:46 PM

Hey Mason, I'm not sure if you can do that whole MIDI import and then switch to wav samples, but I discovered a feature today that I think just might make that possible, let me mess around a bit and I'll let you know! Yeah Fruityloops is a pain in the ass to get the hang of, but once you have it figured out, it is easy as hell, it's just a matter of getting used to the interface...I stumbled upon a way to use the Piano Roll of one sample in order to trigger the whole kit today, which is something I have been trying to figure out for fucking AGES so I am unbelievably stoked, since now I can program drums just like people do with MIDI sequencers, doing the whole song at once, but I am gonna play around for a bit first and make sure it is as awesome as I think it is before trying to teach everyone how, it's pretty complicated lol

Wakeness · 12-21-2005, 08:20 PM

Leave it up a little longer please. I haven't had a chance to save it on my computer at home. (Working too much!)

F0RBIDDEN · 12-21-2005, 08:25 PM

Mason, turns out you definitely can import MIDI files and use them to trigger wav samples, it is complicated as hell and you need to make sure all the drums in your MIDI file coincide with the right MIDI notes in the Fruityloops piano roll of course so it is a pain to set up, but you can do it! It is probably easier to just sequence it in Fruityloops from scratch, I have figured out how to use it exactly like a MIDI sequencer finally, which was always my dream lol, so now I am fucking good to go, Fruityloops rules. It is going to be way too hard to type a new tutorial section covering this piano roll note assignment crap so I am not going to bother, you can program without it just fine, it is just my personal preference not to have patterns at all and to program from start to finish in one window.

shroudofimpurity · 12-21-2005, 08:42 PM

damn, I cant believe so many people have such a hard time with FL. Its seems so straightforward right outta the box. Not saying I know everything about it. Well, I guess Adam is a big help for doing this though!

Fuck yeah, this is awesome news. I like my DM5 for some of the cymbal work, but I would like to create my own kit with the one-shot samples I have. Dood, the program I use to make the midi drums is so fucking easy to use. It use to take me a while, but I can usually write a song and program it, in about a hour or less.

intothebeyond · 12-22-2005, 12:08 AM

Thanks man Yeah sometimes fruityloops can drive yeah crazy its cool people just starting to use it will have something to go on know instead of just going straight at it. www.myspace.com-crossofthevulture I used fruity loops on everthing on this web page I know somethings a real drummer proble could not do but its my best try. Also things are kinda sloppy hear and there but orignal it was suposed to give the drummer a starting point on what I wanted But things just did not work out as plainedwit him. I figure might as well get something out. Its all so about a year or 2 old so take it how it is. Sorry for the spelling guys I have never been that good at it

ChAAPY · 12-22-2005, 01:46 AM

How come your China cymbal isn't in the zipped files??? I need me one soooo bad, that cymbal is AWESOME. And is you "Bass Drop" that huge thunder effect that a lot of bands use before going into a breakdown? I love that effect.

Cloaca · 12-22-2005, 02:52 AM

Thanks heaps man. Thanks for the program too Adam!

Oops! I am uploading a new zip file that includes the china right now! Just redownload the same drumsamples.zip file and it'll be in there. And yeah the Bass Drop is the huge Devourment style "BOOM" noise, doesn't sound like it unless you have a good stereo or monitor system hooked up to yout PC though.
