Hello future music producers, and welcome! I am showing you in this video how to
make beats with
In case you find mistakes in pronunciation, please leave feedbacks in comments!
Watch the beginner tutorial in this show, if you have problems in what is explained.
First of all, as you know, in any music project with FL, you firstly have to define each
pattern you are going to use in your final project, which is represented by the
structure shown in the
different beats per bars,
that, if you add a new channel to a pattern, this will be added in a new row
patterns in your project
With
that create a rhythmic background in any kind of music genre. This can change
depending on your inspiration and on the genre itself.
In FL, the pattern can represent anything, a melody or a basic beat. All you need
to do is to add the right channels for your targets. If you want to create a basic
beat, then add
them on it, if you already have them on your own, otherwise just go in the
window
going to use while creating your beat. Click on a sample to hear it, and, if you like
it, just click and drag it onto your opened pattern.
It is important that beats are put separately in a pattern
melody or bassline put active are in other patterns, and not together with the beats.
Create a pattern aside for each basic beat you are going to create
change rhythm in your song in the future, put beat backgrounds in different patterns.
This will let you manage the change of the rhythm in the Playlist much and much
easier, since changing the beat pattern will mean changing the beat itself.
How about creating these beats? They are simply ruled like any other channels.
Put the pattern in
rectangles you have. Since the pattern will go on being played, you can right hear
how the beat in progress is sounding, so you can change it until you find the
right one.
When making the beat patterns, put them in your
spread fast the beats in the background throughout your work. Whenever you
want to change the beat, just spread the other beat patterns you created.
That's it! However, you can edit well your beats more deeply than simply turning
on or off the beat channels. These editings can be applied on any kind of channels
too. Let's see how.
In the top right corner of the
beats, this can be good to spread the rhythm differently. Keep it in mind.
Then you have two buttons in the same corner. The first one is the
and it is used to change some important properties for the channel selected, like
beat per beat in time, intensity under the section
panning. Select a channel by clicking next to the channel name, to see a small
green light showing up. When you click on the
will appear, and each column represents a
the mouse on them you can change properties in time very easily, and so
the related beat associated.
You can personalize your beat the best way you like.
The second button is the
Graph one, but here you modify the
in time. So that you can change the note and the
Graph
altogether.
In this simple way seen, you can create your beat and evenutally personalize it
well in time. Remember to hear your beat over and over, alone and inside your
project in progress.
Very well, now you are able to create beats with
