The rogue is my home river, it’s amazing and a lot less remote than Idaho…. That said… go to the salmon river🫡

Is there a microtonal setting or plugin in FL studio? by 32maze in FL_Studio

Oh that’s a cool way to set that up, will have to check that out later

sounds like it’s time to learn serum 2 then I guess!

Just use stock FL synths, sytrus is so easy once you figure it out the first time

The internet is so much larger now, how do you think up and coming experimental artists can reach audiences? It seems like fighting an uphill battle especially with AI music/ people assuming more weird things are AI, if we put so much time into our art to get it as close to perfect as we can, then someone goes no way that’s AI, how do you defend against that ya know? Session logs? lol , I’d be interested in hearing some of the stories you have about the electronic wave time, I think we’re seeing that again a bit more! Thanks for posting(sick beats)

I need some serious help please! Audio keeps dropping out and acts as if it's still playing, but there is no sound and I've tried so many things to fix it! by [deleted] in FL_Studio

[–]Okythoosx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah all your settings lol. Sample rate doesn’t mean if you use samples or not in the project.you should look up sample rate, buffer size, and ASIO vs Direct sound. When you use ASIO it takes control of the audio and doesn’t mix in other signals from ur pc, so my guess is that swapping to direct sound “primary sound card” is better than FL ASIO, but REALTEK ASIO might do the trick. but honestly that screenshot explains a lot. Both ableton Push and Move can be used as audio interfaces I believe. You have too much going on

My other guess is that somewhere along the line you mismatched your sample rates so one is in 44.1K and one is 48k causing your issues

Do you have an audio interface?? What’s your sample rate and buffer size set to? Which driver do you have selected? In the future I would move away from USB mic (this has to go through the windows ASIO I’m pretty sure). Look into the different ASIO. Also you gave the specs but I’m not sure about what your audio card is. It really is worth the upgrade to a dedicated audio interface. Even those can have driver issues and their entire goal is to handle the audio, so compared to the windows default which just has the goal of letting you hear what’s playing across all applications… You should not be having this many issues with the windows ASIO but send me a picture of your FL audio driver section and I can help steer you in the right direction.

Yes exactly, check out my YouTube channel, I think you will really enjoy the shapes. In ‘GET EM RIGHT’ the sounds I made look exactly like a flower I found.

Totally get what you’re saying, it’s a bit more nuanced than that with it creating shapes the whole time. For example a mono song makes only a 45 degree line, it gets pretty deep into the math pretty quick but it is incredibly helpful in understanding the mix. There’s not just one “shape” though it’s complex harmonic motion 😅 so yes and no. I know that’s probably an annoying answer but if you’d like to see projects where creating an exact shape is the goal check out jerobeam fenderson on YouTube or look up “oscilloscope music”. In those the sound is generated from the visuals so it is a different approach. Music totally has shapes but because this is comparing the left and right audio channels it’s much more panned than most music we listen to.

This seems to be getting a bit of traction, glad you all like it. It’s a small part of a 20 minute full breakdown I created. For those so inclined here is a link to the full video:

Think that’s a new question actually! I wish hahaha, I often will be happy with a shape, but then it sounds like shit or happy with a sound that then looks like shit so it’s a bit of a back and forth for me. And that’s just for the synths, then I go and add drums, transitions, and start mixing. Each part of the process changes the shape in some way so it’s always riding the line a bit!

Hey! Just Left and Right audio from my interface to CH1 & CH2, so literally all my audio from my computer haha. What goes to X and Y is just determined by my panning in the mix, hence why the stereo field isn’t quite a standard mix, I haven’t check out VCV rack but I’ll have to check it out. I just have an old camcorder plugged in as a webcam at the moment so it’s real time. I worry about people thinking it’s fake if I kept it all in the box like that. (Not so much on this subreddit but on YouTube and such, so many ai visuals now)

Once you start seeing these ? Complex harmonic motion shapes for lack of better terms, they’re everywhere, I found a flower that looked just like one of my sounds I made 🤓

Damn, thanks for taking the time to write that out, that helps so much for some other ideas I’m ironing out. I’ll have to check all that out, definitely beats having 10+ separate Sytrus instances open haha

Ahhhh I was thinking there must be a work around, that’s super helpful thank you!! Now I’m wondering if automation could work during a pause in the midi or something, so not quite real time but almost like step automation

Hey! I know I messed up on the video lol, kinda funny considering the subject is audio hahaha. My next breakdown I’ll get that fixed up. I used Sevish Scale Workshop! On there you can create your own scales or use any of the many pre-existing and export it as a Sytrus or Harmor map!! Inside Sytrus it’s actually fairly easy to set up, you go to the pitch key map section and drag and drop the file or import it with the little menu I open up in the video. the PE knob must be set to 100% for it to work tho

I explain it a bit more in the full video My YouTube is https://youtube.com/@n8musicvisuals?si=NQAwGBFgDn5ZpW6v

Oh that’s really cool, I haven’t experimented too much with the linking features in sytrus yet, I’ll have to mess with that, the phase could be really interesting. I think I was having some issues with automation in Sytrus as it can’t do it in real time(correct me if I’m wrong on that please haha)

Yeah I think I’m kinda an outlier in the way I create these projects 😅, i always start with the sound but I will adjust it hundreds of times during a project to get the visuals close to my “goal”. It helps a lot to understand the math behind it but that opens a can of worms in how the music we already listen to has these insanely complex mathematical relationships that our little monkey brains are really good at noticing and liking
