![]() ![]() To do this, increase the Pitch knob range to 7 and set the PITCH under Time stretching to -700 cents or the lowest position of the knob. To fix this, we will have to tune down the sample 7 semitones to get the correct pitch. So when the note C is played, we hear a G. As we know the original sample is at the pitch G5 (if you trimmed the beginning). One last thing we need to do to ensure this instrument will work well with others is to tune it. I’m going to set the start a little bit further in the sample to get an even cleaner sound. This should be easy since there is a marker where Edison detected the pitch. If you feel the same way, increase the START OFFSET knob and make the sample line up right at the beginning of the second note. Now, I don’t like the two notes in the sample. If the loop you created wasn’t perfect and you are hearing clicks or pops when the loop repeats, you can make use of the CROSSFADE knob to smooth out the transition point. Make sure to click on Use loop points and now when holding down a note on the controller, the sound doesn’t die out. ![]() Smooth out transition points.īack in the Sampler, we have the updated version of the sample loaded in. You can close it out and even remove it from the Master insert in the Mixer. If not, make sure to select the Sampler in the Channel rack before executing this command. Assuming the Sampler channel is still selected, the sample will be placed in that instrument. Then go to the Tools menu in Edison and select Send to selected channel. Make sure to select the whole sample by clicking Command (Mac)/Control (PC) + A. This is helpful information, which we can use later on in the Sampler. Now we know that the two notes are A♯5 and G5. ![]() Go to the Regions menu and select Detect pitch regions. Let’s use Edison to help us figure out what those two pitches are. You will notice there are two distinct pitches the vocalist is singing. TIP: You can play notes on your MIDI controller to preview the sound while in Edison.Īnother very helpful thing we can do here in Edison is to detect the pitch of the sample. Then in the Regions menu select Set loop. Let’s create a selection within the sample where the voice is fairly consistent. This will load Edison into the master track and load the sample into it. Right-click the sample and choose Edit in audio editor. Aside from being a useful tool to record audio, Edison is a very powerful audio editing and processing device within FL Studio. We will need to load this sample into Edison to create loop points. We can make the sample play indefinitely by creating loop points. One issue you will notice is that the sound eventually dies out, even if you keep holding down a key on the controller. Playing higher on the keyboard will transpose the sample up, also making it shorter, while playing lower notes will transpose it down and extend its length. I’m going to load Laurie Webb Ahh C into the Sampler.Īs long as the Sampler is selected in the Channel rack, you can play this instrument with your MIDI controller. Here you will find a collection of vocal samples. In the Library, navigate to Packs > Vocals. Let’s work with a vocal sample that is included with FL Studio. Or work with a vocal preset within FL Studio. We can drop any audio recording from FL or from the computer’s file browser into this area. The Sampler has a very simple interface with a section at the bottom that says Drop Sample Here. Go ahead and load the Sampler into the Channel rack.

Let’s take a look at FL Sampler within FL Studio to learn how to manipulate a sample and create a unique sound. Sampling is very popular in modern productions. When it comes to producing contemporary music of any kind-hip-hop, EDM, or any of the many subgenres within the hip-hop or EDM world-it’s very important to know about sound design, i.e., how to create your own custom sounds. In fact, I can say with certainty that there are some features in FL Studio that aren’t available in some of the other major DAWs, like Ableton or Logic. But now FL Studio-with a name that can be taken a little more seriously than FruityLoops!-is a very advanced DAW with tools that are unmatched. When FL Studio first came out, it was called FruityLoops and many in the general public treated it like a toy. I personally love using FL Studio for my productions. The following information on how to use FL Sampler in FL Studio is an excerpt from the Berklee Online course Producing Music with FL Studio, authored by Rishabh Rajan, which is enrolling now. ![]()
