i dont understand what does fl keys have to do with automation?

[AcePincter]

In order to hear the effect of the automation, it helps to have some sound output. FL Keys is typically how I start a pattern/song, because it's quick, low CPU, sounds clean and takes effects well. Once I have a melody/rhythm, I'll usually choose a more complex instrument.

please help! when i try to map two knobs to the same controller what do i click. i tried "link to controller". then clicked on the right automation, but when i click accept only the second knob is linked. the first one gets disconnected.

[AcePincter]

Which version of FL Studio do you use? In 7 I can map many buttons/knobs to one controller.

It will indicate "Remove Conflicts", but this does not mean that it has been disconnected.

i'm usin 7 too. say i create an automation controlling treble. then i want to add the stretch knob to the same automation. do i just move the knob then click link to controller and select stretch. if so, every time i try this the automation stops controlling treble and just controls stretch. i hope that makes sense. thanks

There's a box at the top called "Remove conflicts". It's only an option. Make sure it's UNchecked so that it does not remove the other automation.

[marcuelcajon]

@xXKineticDJXx Thanks man , I was going crazy looking for last tweaked parameter.

[disciple21781]

I was actually only checking this video out to see if there was a big visual difference between fl studio 7, and fl studio 9. I use cubase. but I must say you're a pretty good teacher, nice job.

[xXKineticDJXx]

last tweaked parameter doesn´t exist is fl studio 9 anymore

but you can tweak the knob you want to automate a bit and klick on browse parameters

then there is a list of all knobs from your plugin

what you have to do is right klicking on the listed knob and create a automation clip (hope my english wasn´t to bad xD) ^^
