Fruity Loops

[Wezc4]

Ive had Fruity Loops for a while now and i was wondering if there is ne gd web sites that offer a tuition, such as showing how everything works on the program. Or i was wondering if ne one cud help me with general principles of making a beat on this program?

I just started using it too and I see how confusing it can be as well. People tell me to fool around with it and i'll get used to it real quick, but I kinda disagree. Anyway, good luck.

I am very simple about it and just use the piano loop or whatever on EVERYTHING lmao because I don't know what I'm doing.

personally, i start out with a template, under "file...template" pick out a set of drums, add some hi hats/shakers from the browser (under- packs-realdrumkits or hophop), then just look for a couple of nice synths or pianos for a fill, i keep my temp around 120 while im building the beat then i speed up the pitch and tempo a little once im done it makes the drums sound tighter, then i also use the mixer and add a "fruity compressor" anyways, it does take a bit of messin around to figure it out, but once ya get it the learning curve is better...
also this is a good base for the better programs, ie; reason, logic and others, fruity loops is awesome if you load ur own samples in there, but the other programs start you off with more true sounding samples, liek a trumpet that sound like a trumpet, (since fruity loops is jsut samples, the samples change if you put them at too high of a note/octave,

if you've got any questions, hollat me (be specific).

If you're wondering whether it's legit or not, take a look at these (they're a few beats I've made using Fruity Loops). It'll give you an idea.
