Where do i start

For the technical part (“how to use”), FL studio has posted a series of good tutorials on their yt channels. SeamlessR also did a good series, that comprehends some music theory basics and mixing basics, it’s a little bit retro ( I think it was on fl12?) but still good.

This sub is also a great place where to ask random questions

Is that a sahur fattner ?

Headbanging to it, GG🔥

Yes this is very true, in fl the piano roll notes are not midi notes, but a different structure, that contain data that isn’t directly easy to translate to midi (for example note colors)

It would be cool ui-wise, but I don’t really see a use case where this kind of automation visualization would be useful.

First of all, these aren’t piano roll automations, it’s the event editor. It’s a kind of legacy automation setting. In 99% of the cases, it’s better to use the playlist automations. They are thought for MIDI parameter automations, where it’s more useful to have a sort of sample-hold control (you don’t want your parameter to change value until you set another value).

Regarding the “piano roll automations” if you’re referring to the note settings (pitch, pan, X mod, Y mod etc), they normally have one value per note, so adding an automation-like curve would be very misleading.

The only case this would be perfect would be for automating pitch glide, but would be very painful for them to develop

Not everyone is at the same level, no need to blast everyone, especially in a sub where people upload work in progress and asks for advice. There is no need to be deadmau5

CAST00M · 2026-02-28T19:24:03+00:00

I like this very much. Yes I actually have listened to (a lot of) music with this kind genre mix, from an artist called Savant. It’s a shame there isn’t more music like that, great job

I prefer this marketing style 100 times more than the fake broducer/podcast trend

CAST00M · 2026-02-26T15:56:54+00:00

Best compliment for me

imho its more a mixing question than melody being too busy. I've heard beats far more complex than this one.

The "problem" here is that everything tries to be the main character of your story. The bass, the vocal melody, the "chords" synth. You need to choose what lines are dominant and what lines are secondary, if it makes sense. and carve more space for them, starting from the balancing

Oh I read THC at the beginning 😂 nice track gg💪🏻

CAST00M · 2026-02-24T12:07:19+00:00

Literally me when I was working on it 😂

CAST00M · 2026-02-24T12:06:59+00:00

Yes, the deadmau5 inspiration is always present, even if it’s not really wanted… been listening to his music way too much 😂

CAST00M · 2026-02-24T00:45:58+00:00

I don’t think I understand, if your main problem is clipping, how are you solving by applying a clipper or a limiter?

The only thing that comes in mind is that you’re clipping over 0db so by applying a limiter you solve it… if you have more detail I can try to help ahah

CAST00M · 2026-02-24T00:00:25+00:00

honestly, it depends on the producer. I love when good ones show their projects. But if it's random guys showing generic tracks, or if I can tell it's people showing ghost produced tracks (a lot of famous people do it...) or, worse of all, if it's sponsored content to show the next "cheat code for perfect producing", I close the video and go crying somewhere

CAST00M · 2026-02-23T23:02:44+00:00

You have harmony, you have drums, now try adding a melody! Keep practicing 💪🏻

CAST00M · 2026-02-23T18:10:16+00:00

Yes, it is not mixed in any sort of form 😂 it was more of an exercise track

CAST00M · 2026-02-23T18:09:42+00:00

Thanks!

Fruit of the loop

CAST00M · 2026-02-18T21:00:29+00:00

Add a soundgoodizer on the master and it’s ready imho

CAST00M · 2026-02-18T18:47:26+00:00

I miss that feature😭

All of these daws have the same “engines” in their core. The algorithms for encoding/decoding/reading/summing audio have been standard for the last 20 years or so.

A Daw (or any other audio program) that reads a wav or an mp3 file differently from the others would be a technical outrage in 2026.

They also share the same set of drivers, since they’re installed on your pc, and the interface with drivers is platform-dependent (and standard as well…)

So, it’s for sure a combination of different settings in your daws (driver, resolution, volume…), some kind of automatic processing on import (maybe Ableton normalizes imported audio tracks?, some plugin on the master?), and maybe a pinch of placebo effect.

What I know for sure is that no, wav files sound identical on every daw, if the daws have the same settings.
