I've just recently started making music on Fl studio, and I just thought I'd say this is one of the best tutorials I've seen! I even took notes....lol.
I don't really know much about music, and this really helped! Thank you! I just have one question, because theres no black bar between E and F, does that mean there's no such thing as a E-sharp and F-flat key?
@philip75000 It depends on what exactly you are seeking to get out of it. If you are looking to learn basic piano, then a keyboard works just as well. Some keyboards will cover the basics while others are good for actually studying for the piano or organ.
Wow... as cheesy as it sounds, this felt empowering. I was always so intimidated by pianos because of their complexity, but this makes it a lot easier to understand. Thanks so much!
Great tutorial mate. The series start in C because A only makes reference to concert A or 440 hz the note that a pitch fork produces. Usually all orchestras tune their instruments to this pitch.
NFX I am confused about something, does it matter what frequency your sound is before you put it on the keyboard? I mean like, c4 might be 400hz and c5 might be 500hz, c5 is the normal key so you need a 500hz sound?
Thank you very much. This video is very informative and I have been looking for only such kind of videos. Please do more informative videos like this.
You mention that you have wondered why C was not orignally named A. Here is the true historical way the letternames and the scale were first defined. My video is called:
"Naming the white keys on the piano - a historical note"
I think it is a real pity that this original definition of "bass" keys, (A to G), then "middle keys" (a to g) then "treble keys" (aa to gg) has been forgotten.
spierdalaj, moze i angielskiego dobrze nie znam ale nie napinam sie tak jak ty kurwo z podstawowki , nie znasz polskiego wiec nie zrozumiesz słowa pierdol sie!
thank you i know hear it alot but u dont know your helping alot of people with your gift .you take it to a whole different level notes tones patter audio recording and everthing and i just want to say thanks and if i ever make it . i know you probably doing it big handle you business and what not .i want with you .because i'm like a student and you teaching me .and breakdown were i can understand and make it simple thank for everthing.
this is the only thing i hate about fl studio, i can play instruments but when it comes to having to do the shit on a computer you actualy need a good understanding of music.
ok theres something pissing me off, and i cant find out how to do it, say i have 4/4 timing and each button on the step sequencer is a 16th note... how do i change the 16ht note to something faster like a 32nd or 64th note? and i know i can possible go through and make the tempo higher but thats just a bunch of steps i shouldnt have to do.
It is possible in Logic pro and I think in FL studio too but honestly piano roll is just faster. Watch some other tutorials by Sir nfxbeats (you kick ass!) you'll see him do it.
man u are good and keep it up........lots of people like u but there will still be some haters no matter what.......but to me u are damn good at what u are doing..BLESS YOU...peace im out
Hit F10, click on the audio button on the left, slide the buffer bar to the right until the clicks stop. I had this problem on my laptop and this fixed it.
It slows down FL Stud but you can always quantize your piano roll if it comes in too slowly.
you sould get a paid from fl studio because you explain the program better then they do thanks for the help and fl studio is really one of the best beat making programs for the price and a whole lot better then reasons
actually we are all gratefull that you take your time and do this thank you, really, thank you nfx, greeting from mexico, the best thing its that it doesnt matter what music genre we want to play all this its really really helpfull, music its music and i love it, que te vaya muy bien :D

It's the way the order of the tones and semi-tones are set out in a major scale.
For example: (T) = Tones (S) = Semi-tones
