@@mechwarreir2 nah bro you just have what we call laziness. If you can't press two keys to make a simple action, then you're not ready to use FLStudio.
nah knowing is pretty easy knowing how to use it tho is the hard part everyone can just read the scrip manual and just make a video on it like they knew whats happening but to make a video in the format he does is to have the knowledge on how to put it in use thats why his stuff is pretty impressive and catchy
It's important to call out this only works for instruments native to FL. Slide notes do not work for 3rd party plugins like Serum or NI Kontakt or anything else. So for pitch bending those instruments, you typically need to use the Channel Pitch knob on the top right of the plugin near the digits box of where it's mapped on the mixer, and you have to automate that. An alternative is to convert 3rd party instruments into a sample-based DirectWave instrument.
There's a free VST called BENDY which you can use as a workaround. Works great with Vital. You need to use one copy of that vst for each midi channel you'd want to bend, so it's not as seamless as using color-coded midi on a single pattern, but it works.
@@CrappyPastry99 Yep, though I have seen something similar on Bitwig. The making-of video of Donkong - Simulation uses individual note bending for the lead, and I had been looking for something similar for years, until this video where I found Bendy
@@ahreuwuInteresting! the DAW I use (Mixcraft 9) has a pitch bend wheel but it doesn't work very nicely unless you have a synth with a large bend range
Thank you so much for answering why it wasn't working on my Serum synth, now I gotta figure out how to bend the individual note on the piano roll through serum
you know you made a good tutorial when people think its entertaining enough to watch without any intent of touching the software its for while still being effective at teaching them.
I've been using FL for over a year now and I never knew how to do this - I always just cloned the instrument and then had both play at the same time, sliding independantly. this is so, so much better and you earned a sub for teaching me this, ty!
your videos are refreshing. i started making music like 10 years ago on and off, gave up for a while. your vids came up in my feed and now im jumping back into it. cheers!
I don't make music at all and I have no idea why this was in my recommended, but... this is a really good balance of education, tutorial, and entertainment.
It's little things like this I tend to overlook in Fl studio. Half a decade of sound design using this DAW and I'm only just now finding out that color coordinating notes in the piano role allow them to function independently of one another. I'm glad this video found me as not only did I learn something new and game changing, but it was catchy, simple, effective and easy to understand.
Okay, this is the best channel on UA-cam. So much useful information in a such small amount of time, all done to the beat, being entartaining and pleasing not just to watch but also to listen to, these videos are great!
Dude, THANK YOU! I've been using fl for 5 years and never figured out how to do this. I assumed it wasn't even possible. But this looks very exciting, gonna try out!
great vid, especially the first 20 seconds i watched around 20 times, everything is so perfect, the smooth sliding notes, you talking sounding like actual vocals fitting the track, it all feels like on beat evolving, I love the way the first note of the bassline starts playing at the same time as you said bass. All this while im actually learning useful straight to the point tips that i would usually not have the attention span to sit through. Well done, i subbed i hope you do more like this
Normally I would block channels who use clickbait thumbnails instead of support them, even if they are good, but damn I love the straight to the point and short videos. Subscribed. Even clicked the like button which is very rare that I do.
These tutorials make me actually happy watching! Also, we don't even have to ask for full versions of the songs because you're playing around with songs that are already out!
Spacebear does this at the end of their song 'The Definition Of Gooning'. Sustained notes doing this sound better imk. But yea. It's used in a lot of games.
You have made every other fl tutorial channel irrelevant to me. Straight to the point tutorials that respect my time and have a step by step visual guide too? Your content is amazing dawg 🤘🏼
I DIDNT KNOW YOU COULD DO THIS!!!! I was so upset that I couldn't change the slide to only work with one note in particular, this opens up so much for me thank you!
Gentlemen, I want to acknowledge the hard work put in by this individual. He is knowledgeable and generously shares his wisdom with us. People like him help others become the best versions of themselves, which ultimately contributes to the evolution of music as a whole. For that, I applaud you brother. Keep being amazing!
Thank you so much! I have been trying to find out how to do such a simple technique for this for ages; I had no idea it was just built in to the DAW like this!
My god, I've tried scouring the internet for hours and never understood what the little triangle did or how it works. You just explained it in under a minute and it all makes sense.
I learned this by accident one time!! The most fun thing is that each of those sixteen colors are MIDI channels ✌🏽 so if you ever work with MIDI instrumentation and events, you'll know how to handle it now!
You’re an amazing discovering !!! I have been plateauing on learning fl studio , and you’re marking bookmarks that I don’t have to think of myself. Mille Merci 🙏🏽 Many thanks
i've been wanting to get into making music and those little tutorials are so fun and informative compared to a lot of 3 hours infodump videos lol, thank you so much
oh thank the lords of music you saved me time lool I've been trying to figure out how you were supposed to pitch select notes in a chord on my own for so long. Who know you just needed to change the colour :P
I was hoping to finally learn it is possible after all to really draw a curve in a sort of overlay directly within the midi, but this is still a good reminder to make more use of this slide method as opposed to the porta/mono and time knob in the instrument's menu. Fun bonus tip: Consider freq shifting. Whether done subtly in simultaneous conjunction with pitch slides or used as an obvious effect, it's so cool. There's other methods too, Image Line Harmor's prism is a great example, it lets you move individual partials according to the drawn mask and formula you choose. You can also set it's ''phaser'' to freq mode to move partials rather than filter them, especially cool cause it's an infinitely spinning knob. (There's also a phaser mask if you want it to affect different partials differently) You can also program detuned unison synths so the detune gets strongest in the middle of your slide or just before reaching the target or whatever, very cool effect too. In passing tones and especially slides, dissonance tends not to stand out to us as a bad thing, so you can get a little wilder with the timbre. Another cool one is resonators/vocoders/tonal EQ etc. set to highlight consonances, some EQ's even let you control a freq's octaves alongside it so you can reasonably do harmonic series filter stuff. (You can fade this in during slides) The idea here is to instead filter out dissonant stuff in your slides, it'll basically slide through a mask and the partials become more audible as they go through consonant freqs. (You may wanna do some volume automation/compression and EQ to make stuff audible but not too resonant) You can do SO much to make very interesting sounding slides, always fun to sit down and add details like this when the moment is right. Usually I'm in the flow writing, then when that passes I do this, and it's so rewarding to hear it come to life that much more.

The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed after you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.
pro tip: if you want to change the color of existing notes, highlight the notes, click the color you want, and then do the shortcut Alt+C
thank you i was looking to color groups of notes, had no idea until now
avenge
you can also select all the notes of the selected color by using the shortcut Shift+C !!
it's just so much work, I hope one day a future DAW will make a better method....

Holy, i did not know specific colored notes could be bent without altering other notes at the same time. Very, very useful.
That adds a whole ahh dimension in FL that no other DAW has

thanks yt algorithm
holy shit, I didn't know I was missing this video so much. thank you man!!!1!
im an ableton user and im not even sure half of these tutorials will work on there but the videos are so fun i cant help it
and if you want to manage multiple notes to a different color, select them, set your preferred note color on the top left, alt+c.

you have a lot to learn about turning things outside in
Synthet might be the angel I asked for to teach me something about Fl
Thank you so much for this, the color coding is extremely helpful and I never knew about this before!
also to add, Note Velocity, Note fine pitch, and Note Panning also get affect by these changes underneath your notes :)
This is what I like about FL. Other DAWs are so complacent about this types of features.
