    Fl studio midi question/ make a song ?

    make sure that in the playlist you either re-enable the grid to cell or line snapping......that way when you paint the patterns you want to play in the song they should not overlap and transition smooth.

    Fruity Loops or Reason ?

    See i waited until the End.....I like Fruity and Reason and if I want different sound I use one or the other.....Reason's sequencer just reminds me of the mpc and it will retain the pattern just like you banged it in....that was why I like the mpc too.......Fruity will do the same thing if you...

    Fl studio midi question/ make a song ?

    Inspectah, EKA got it right....imma add to it.....right mouse click over a channel and send to piano roll.....then use the selection tool and quantize....quick quantize doesn't always get it right.......also if you got track you don't want exact quantizing....TURN off the grid snapping...that...

    makin R'n'B beats

    Imma tell you what I do and this is just a carry over from using my sp1200......I alway double my bpm.......so if I got a 100 bpm song I set my tempo to 200 that way I can take hats and shaker and make triplets, easy drum rolls and breakdowns and all of that fast light percussion to give a...

    makin R'n'B beats

    another thing that you will notice is that RnB might use some different fx on the drums and percussion is also important too....shakers and tambourines and congas....yeah but what I did was first find a song...then dissect the beat they had at least 4 bars or close...get the tempo and...

    makin R'n'B beats

    Man you have to work at it....what I would do is just use a chord change in the first track....record it....then go back and think of how you could turn the chord change into a nice progression......think scales.....also like I said go download or buy an RnB cd it doesn't even have to be a hot...

    makin R'n'B beats

    Yeah the producers for Musiq are really musical producers and you could do some RnB easily, you can even resample some of ya hip hop elements and use em....I got critiqued on a Loon remix at a conference in NY last fall and two of them were on the panel, and they are perfectionists that listened...

    makin R'n'B beats

    Aight most RNB nowadays is usually based on a lot of the same patterns in hip hop and in some cases there is thin divide between them, I could have and RnB singer and a rapper in the same room fighting over a track...but the main thing is it depends on the RNB....are we talking brian McKnight or...

    *An absolutely GREAT QUESTION*

    Afrique, so is pitch shifting a separate option from the semitone? I mean this is useful even though I don't use acid anymore....
  16. bigdmakintrax

    *An absolutely GREAT QUESTION*

    ok cool yeah I don't know why that happens because I have seen that happen to loops b4 too..I think you can change and individual track's pitch also.....in addition to a clip...is the sample read only or off of a cd? you can save it again or take the read only attribute off if it's enabled.
  17. bigdmakintrax

    *An absolutely GREAT QUESTION*

    yeah a semitone is a division of an octave I think, and I didn't look that up ....but it can be raised or lowered to change the pitch of the clip....it's useful for bass lines in acid that are just simple if you got a nice bass sample and you want to use the same bass and make a melody....
  18. bigdmakintrax

    *An absolutely GREAT QUESTION*

    isn't there an option when you right mouse clip over the sample that says raise semitone?.....I don't know if that will do it or not, I have not used acid for awhile...
