Say you record a 4 bar loop and accidentally record a wrong note. This is a game changer for producers! No more having to land a perfect take.Īnd now you can switch up certain sections at will. In FL Studio you can lengthen or shorten notes, move notes around, add or delete a note, and even quantize entire sections (more on quantizing in the next section). Record in the next layer with kick and snare, then add in bass, and so on till you have all the parts of your song fleshed out.Īnother strength of MIDI is the ability to go back to your track and manipulate notes. Hit record, and move on to the next element of the song. So if you’re new to producing, start out with your core, foundational instrument like a piano part or synth loop. It can take years to master if you’re just starting out. MIDI is truly where you can express your sound in whatever way you want. The most famous engines include Omnisphere, Native Instruments, and Output. Other instruments like a drum kit will only have 10 to 30 different sounds and will only be triggered by the first set of keys, respectively.Īlternatively, you can purchase a wide range of sound engines and load third-party plugins into FL Studio. Some instruments will be full scale, and can be triggered by any MIDI key on your controller. One beautiful thing about MIDI is that it lets you load and trigger any sound imaginable.įL Studio comes pre-loaded with synths, bass presets, drum samples, keyboards, and much more. There are tons of advantages to using MIDI versus traditional audio.
This allows you to record individual MIDI notes from the controller. You can select one of these, or add a new channel.įL Studio should automatically recognize your MIDI controller and select the source for you.īefore recording the MIDI part, right click on the record button and double check that “Notes” is checked off. Most FL Studio projects will already have a mixer created with multiple channels. With your MIDI device connected, you’re halfway there to producing beats.
Once your controller is connected and powered, hover over “MIDI Settings” in FL Studio and make sure the device is being seen and registered by FL Studio. For full list of recommendations, check out our midi keyboards for FL studio guide here.
