[FLyingNarmhal68]

Good except timing was very off

[ILLEAGLExxx]

Won't surprise us my ass, DO NOT WATCH THIS IF PEOPLE ARE SLEEPING IN THE HOUSE!!!

[wasupthere]

that is when FL studio GENIUS strikes again ! look how long it took u to achieve same fx with fl plug n 3rd party....

[Cosmicweave]

Thanks, i prefer this over any automation clip.

[zXxNoMercYxXz1]

Oh Hey 240p, We meet again...

[santiagoaguayo1]

how can i get vanguard if i have fl studio 10 and if its not here then which channel is good for slides?

[JNCOKING20]

how do make it not hold the notes bcuz evry time i press the key it holds it

[eatmymilano]

Great tutorials. Haters go die, you're getting free knowledge.

[Timotjeuh]

@eatmymilano Free knowledge :)

[riftkan]

suscribe. i am intrigued.

[thestoryofadream]

thanks



[djspinny999]

or...you could turn your porta up full. make another note going higher/lower. orr...you could just pitch bend

[GinieBeatz]

thx for tha tutorial mannn i need it

[slim33shady]

is there another VST you can use besides vanguard?

[Dreamcraeft]

This is a GREAT tutorial! i would not have figured that out in sytrus XD simple, easy to understand, Great job! THX! =D

[predjee]

great tutorial for beginners ! Explains everything in detail ! i love it

[Mr2WAC]

thanx for the help

[marklhirondelle]

honestly i've been looking for build up tutorials. yours my friend gave me the most help and I would like to thank you for that. Thank you

[westexashooligan]

hey thanks for the info, your video helped me greatly, the automation clips never quite did it, thanks again

[liu408]

Is that 9.1?

[dfarce]

@YaSFlameHaze

I try to explain everything in this video as best I can, and I'm not particularly good at that :p

[Dominoes282]

Or you could just put a long note and make an automation clip on the pitch duh haha

[djisgodbeats]

@Dominoes282 agreed this is the wrong way to do it,so many of these youtube videos give out the wrong advice or work arounds as if they are the actual way of doing something

[dfarce]

@Dominoes282

I agree that it may work, however with the pitch you aren't guaranteed to be able to span your entire range (I'm not entirely sure whether the vanguard pitch can span 4 octaves). Similarly, automation clips in FL do not have easily discernible values, meaning that arriving at your desired note will take tons of fine tuning (have you ever tried to automate tempo? oh god!)

[SlangLargeAmounts]

@dfarce Its called edit events. its extremely easy and completely accurate 

[dfarce]

@SlangLargeAmounts

Unless you are using some sort of different way to edit events then although accurate, you have very little way to map pitch changes onto the 0-100% scale imposed by the automation clips or edit events. Send me a PM if you still disagree and we can try figuring out what I'm missing :)

[Rellizate]

@dfarce I would also like to know? The edit events seems ridicoulouslt innacurate.

[JonConstantine]

@dfarce actually, since the pitch value goes by 12 in FL, if you increase your pitch range to 48 in the channel window and go up to 100 in your automation clip from either 25, 50, or 75, then you're guaranteed to start and land on the correct pitch. trust me, automation is way better than actually putting in each note. VSTs don't restrict their range, so Vanguard will cover every note on the piano roll in FL. Similarly, you can edit the rate with the midpoint to add more intensity to your builds

[ClassicCult]

@Dominoes282 L O L

[Skydrohz]

@Dominoes282 very true... but maybe he didnt know that

[MrPilotdude]

i just tryed using the slide with sytrus and get no sound but u get sound with porto do u know why this is happening ???

[ManicToot]

I cant find vanguard any where.. ive used it in a previous project but it looks like its gone? Can you help??

[EJI253]

do you know a place where i can download vanguard? everyone says its a must have

[chivito1r]

were can i download  Sytrus and Vanguard

[dragonkelv]

@chivito1r Sytrus is already in Fl studio.......... vanguard search google...

[CJenkinsLive]

You are a lifesaver!!!!! You've earned yourself a new fan! :)

[Galang2903]

Anyway, it helps alot.. 

[BluntSnBowls601]

that was awesome lol XD!

[utarian7]

this is a good vid, it would be GREAT if you spoke clearly, a little slower, and if the vid wasn't blurry

[XxTestProfilxX]

@energeticDj

ah finally a fellow cubase user ;)

[XxTestProfilxX]

@energeticDj

well if you don't have glide option you could try to play with the ADSR envelopes to make the notes "glide" into each other... it's not the same effect but you can achieve pretty good results

... what i mean is lower the attack to make the notes "bleed" in and raise the sustain so they "bleed out" ...

[ver8119999]

hahaha is the same beat like disco pogo =P

[muzikbiz001]

good video but i cant see very well because of poor recording quality! :(

[aeden101079]

or you can use the portamento with 2 notes...

[ALEXTHEALEXNATOR2]

can u tell me how to make triplets on fl studio please?

[toxic996]

I bought fl studio 8 but i cant find vanguard :s? do i have to buy it?

[D1lle899]

how do you copy and paste note in the piano roll?

[dfarce]

@D1lle899 Simply get the selection tool (square icon in the top right)

select your notes

Press Control+C (universal windows copy command)

and Control+V (universal windows paste command)

[pakkoto]

@dfarce holding shift goes faster

[Merryfuckmas]

@D1lle899 LOL

[MachineHead9999]

@D1lle899 easy way is to first select with ctrl + left mouse button , then pres shift + left mouse button on the selected... and drag :D

[D1lle899]

how do you copy and paste note in the piano roll?

[singhricky82]

Thanks for spitting your knowledge really helps

[rolandigido]

couldu explain to me all that quarter note triplet stuff ?

thanks

[Igneous01]

@energeticDj nexus has under the mfx section a place where you can adjust the sound to be poly, none, legato, and so forth, and also lets you adjust the time it takes to switch between notes..

u can make a slide in nexus by using legato 1/16 for the settings, and drawing 1 bar of note at every 1 beat interval

for ex - -

-

to the note u want it to go... does the same thing

[coreAddiction]

what are you doing after you tweak the cutoff?

that whats adding this blueish thing to the playlist?

seems like my vanguardmenu is different from yours.. at this playce i cant see a point in my menu that has a menu popping out to the right

and cuz my native language isn't english i can't understand what you're saying either ://

[dfarce]

@energeticDj and liltypsy

Some, but not all synths have some sort of internal glide function. By utilizing it with a little tweaking, you should be able to get the desired effect. I'm not an expert on many (if any!) VSTs though, so take it on faith XD

[liltypsy]

how'd you figure it out I had the same problem

[dfarce]

Hmm, I'm not so sure then. The only thing I can guess is that you are using an external VSTi like Vanguard or VSTation. The slide function only works with native FL plugins. Anyways, let me know if you figure it out

[dfarce]

It may be that you forgot the root note. To start a slide, you need to have a root note and a target note. The root note is where the slide starts, and the target note is the one which you actually put the slide trigger on. hope that helps somewhat.

[unownuser999]

I dont have Vanguard... how do i get it?

[ShoultzKill]

Hey man thanks so much for the great tutorial you actually taught me something tonight =D

[Un0n]

Oh, and btw....DO NOT (unless you have an absolutely amazing sound card) place one short note at the very bottom of the piano roll, and another at the very top and set a slide to it. It will cause your cpu usage to go through the roof, and fl studio will stop responding....yes, i kno it was dumb, but it sounded cool before it crashed....lol

[Un0n]

Very good tutorial. Dont be so hard on yourself. Your helpin out a lot of people, for free. I think you can permit yourself a few oohs and aahs lol. Keep it up.

[dfarce]

Thanks, I will do. Having problems trying to fix my sound issue due to my crappy integrated sound. O well, I have something special planned when I do.
