Started using FL

Whats up!!


Started using FL studio, was always a reason user.

Now this is a very basic question but messing with me the last few times I jumped on FL.

I have a pattern with kicks, snairs, hats my my sample etc and it seems when I want to load it into the playlist to actually do a song with a verse and chorus etc it wont separate all the tracks.

It seems after watching a video I have to do different patterns in the step sequencer but the patterns wont play at the same time.

How can i create a song when I cant have the drums all play together at once and then add wtv instrument I want to add.

Why the move?

2 reasons ( no pun intended ) lol

One my copy version of reason stopped working.

Seconds, I guess I wanted to try something new.

With FL you need to have one pattern with the drums, one with the snares, one with the hats, one with the bass, etc...then you build the song up on the right in the playlist area (the name escapes me).

This video shows the process I think (I don't have sound so sorry if the music sucks!):


As you're new to FL Studio, definitely check out Warbeats tutorials. They will teach you an awful lot about the FL mechanics and what is possible.

I hope you enjoy FL!
