HELP FOR A FRUITY LOOPS NOOB!!!! simple question.

[itzDetrimental]

I don't see the reasoning in having 40 lead synths in one flp, maybe I am missing something?

Pretty sure he wants them like that so when he makes a new song, he can open just one project file, and listen for a lead that would sound good with it without having to open a project, listen, close project, repeat until he finds one that matches.

Naya, flstudio is a daw, but it also runs as a vst inside of other daws. So you can run it inside of itself. I'm just curious as to weather you can move stuff between them. If so, you could be working on a project, open fruity within fruity and that fruity could have 40 synths with their lines. Potentially you could just drag them into your main project.

Can you tell us though, why you would want to do something like this? And why having a folder of sampled lines in audio is not as good (or better) then having instead a midi pattern with a patch in a synth?

I do occasionally reuse audio tidbits from other projects, but I've got an organized folder where I put stuff, and I've got a naming convention that includes the bpm and genre and use of the file to name my files. Then I've got a whole other folder that is filled with random clippings, samples in the thousands. When I want to pull a rabbit out of my hat that is where I go.

But honestly, I never reuse like a straight line from one track to the next. Do you? Let's say I reuse a lead line, I'll fx the line and then I'll chop that fucker up in any number of ways, and play it live as an instrument.

Did you say you don't know how to use fruity as a plugin? Make sure that the flstuio.dll is where all of your other plugin dlls are located. And then see if you can choose flstudio as a channel in the channel drop down. If not, you've got to pick "more" and then "refresh" and it will load up a long list of activated and unactivated plugs. Find the fruity.dll or whatever it is called click the little box next to it. Close that list, now you should be able to pick fruity from the regular list of instruments. Now you've got a fruity with a fruity.

Really curious as to what your workflow is here. Honestly, I've been working with fruity for 13 years, and I've never heard people asking for what you're asking for. Those forums used to be hellof tight back in the day and this was never on the map at all.

because when im making a tune... i just get a piano out and do all my notes in it.. like chords bassline synth line melody and stuff.. then i would like an flp saying................... trap synths...... or moog synths ........ ordark synths.... so i could go into the flp.. press plau.... listen too all the synths iive made. ..... then be like woahhhhhh tht one i made for that tune is fuckin PERFECT.. insted of goin fru loadsa diffrent flp's searchin for the sounds i want... its just more organised.......................................plus i have asberghes loolol

Completely offtopic but could you make a tiny bit of effort with your questions, the excessively long ellipses and the spellings are giving me a headache

Also if you select multiple flp files in a folder and click open it will open multiple instances of FL, maybe you can copy between them

[ehbes]

Couldn't you also just create a multisample folder for each of your favorite patches and then just load them into a sampler?

a folder of mp3s of audio clips of my synths. then i could listen too wich one i want too use then copy it .. yeah i suppose that would work.. i just like collecting synths though. im a geek for makin sounds then savin them all in organised folders like a crazy autysm asberghes mother fucker. and no i dnt re use the synthline wen i paste it into a new track.. its just there as a refrence of what i made with the synth... its not just me that does this.. loads of people do this as an organised way too listen too the soudns theyve made

skip too 4 minites... this is what i do all the time... i have reason files for oldschool garage basses with like 40 synths in.... then dubstep synths.... then trap synths.rns then westcoast synths.rns so its real easy for me too get the soudns i want QUICK.

That's one of te reasons I love reason I've got a template with a bunch of combinators and sends, it makes working with straight audio so much easier

This is an interesting method (the second part).

You made me way curious so I tested a separate but similar theory.

Obnoxious TS: Okay, here's what you do.

Two hypothetical tracks. One is your new project, we'll call it Project A, the other is Project B, that's the one where you have for whatever reason stored the PERFECT COMBINATION of tweaks, effects, automations, and notes laid out.

In Project A, pick an open channel (Sampler?). Right click where it says "Sampler #24" or whatever, click "Replace" and choose "ReWired" - if it isn't in your list, find it under "More...". It's there somewhere.

In the Channel window which will open up, there'll be a little dropdown for "Client" - FL Studio should be in there. Pick that and give your computer a moment to think about it. You may or may not have to click the "Show Panel" button right next to the dropdown.

You'll have two instances of FL Studio up and running, Project B within Project A. In the Project B window, you can open up your other project and do whatever it is you want. Within Project A, you may be able to tie some MIDI stuff together, or you may just need to put a single tick in the step sequencer, or ... you'll have to figure that out. I'm not experimenting with it because I don't want to fuck up whatever it is I'm working on right now.

In any case though, if you can't figure out nowaysj's method, try that, maybe it'll get you the result you want.

Bro, just store presets for your synth. One click and it is done, you don't have midi data, but whatever, you have a keyboard you can noodle on.
