      Thank you Jade! What're some of your go-to foley/atmosphere sounds that you like to include? The ol' raining outside the window sound? Or the people walking around the streets?

    I like to get "out of the box" for some authentic lofi. I have been experimenting with reamping techniques usually used for recording guitars. I use a di box in reverse and output into pedals and amps and record them back in. You can then mix in parallel to taste. Also I have recorded to 4 track cassette at a high speed and record it back at a slower speed. This all may seem extravagant but it adds something you can't quite get from plugins. Of course you need the hardware to do this. A cheap microphone recording a monitor or speaker can give some great results. I find experimentation key to this sort of stuff. It can simply be a change in perception that can lead to inspiration to try new things you haven't thought of before.

    part of the reason pitching down works vs. pitching up is downsampling. idk that i can do it justice explaining, but it's interesting to look into if you have the time

      Navie D. The one thing I really wanted it a one stop shop for tutorials on fl studio plugins, like an in-depth look at all the instruments and effects, I still don’t have my head around fruity love filter and gms. There isn’t really anything on UA-cam that covers it. To be honest I’m getting bored of the “crazy trap melody fl studio” or I made a chill beat in fl” etc. just do an in-depth of each built in vst and this channel will fly.... thanks bro
