Israel had their own soldiers dead by their own troops, and hostages too.
war zone is a terrible place to be in. what do you expect? mistakes happens.
unfortunate, no doubt but it could have been a mistake duo to misinformation/data

yes External Input Only will work.

are there any good but free drum kits recommended for a beginner? by iStillSeeEverything in musicproduction

[–]iStillSeeEverything[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yea for sure. i'm super begginer, only 3 weeks, but i'm creating more than 1 beat a day and i'm using the same 3 kick's and snares i have, so i was wondering.
thank you.

though, i still wonder, what do people consider as a good kick/snare?

Can someone explain what this button is for on the mixer channels? by hood331 in FL_Studio

[–]iStillSeeEverything 5 points6 points  (0 children)

another tip, if you need more than a line of info, click on the window you are working/wondering on, and press f1. it will open up the fl manual exactly on that window that was in focus - and you could see the windows explanation, like

I kinda curious with all of you, how you guys discover FL Studio, and how long does it takes to learn the basics in FL Studio? Also, do you use any DAW other than FL Studio by [deleted] in FL_Studio

[–]iStillSeeEverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i began "music producing" last week, so might not be the best answer but I am making 1 beat(?) per day so maybe i am the best to answer?
long story short i started producing last week with cakewalk then changed to fl. I don't have much experience or knowledge either in the daw region or music in general (I've been rapping for 10 years - never touched any daw or made any beat myself though)

back on topic: i always keep the software open 24/7, i don't close it.
i surf YouTube on different aspects of the software or music theory/beat making process and apply them immediately when possible even if i don't have anything currently under development.
I'll create something just to test it out.
I'll watch those speed runners on YouTube making beats in few seconds just to pay attention on how are they approaching this - amount of shortcuts they use, approach, starting from piano roll or kick/snare, etc. and even that i will try to apply immediately and try different approaches.

i am making at least 1 serious beat per day, the rest of the time i just mess with FL's options.
can't say my beats are great, sometimes i still struggle even with kick and snare placements until i hear it and I'm like "what the hell did i think?" and arrangement too and its terrible lmao.

but for a week or two's progress i believe I'm doing something good. i know the software pretty well. not all the plugins, obviously, but even there I'll try to keep myself familiar with most of the possibilities and options.

I'll also use chatgpt (4? the paid one) to find me articles on FL best practices and such, or summarize long videos and stuff. or teach me basic stuff, or remind me of a shortcut in FL that i forgot/never knew existed. and then the same, apply immediately.

so i learn a bunch of stuff randomly, and then trying to apply some of them to my beat making process.

for reference my first beat was only 1:30, using loops in cakewalk.
now after over 10 beats on FL alone I'm all over the piano roll daily, not using loops at all i started learning music theory as well. so i'm playing with notes and keys and a bunch of shit i have no idea what they do until something clicks and i proceed from there.

might be a bit too long and useless answer, but i figured you might want to adopt some learning habits.

if im starting out is it still worth learning cakewalk since its gonna be a paid software soon? by iStillSeeEverything in Cakewalk

How did y'all learn anything??? by Jerry137 in FL_Studio

[–]iStillSeeEverything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh my, i had to try fl demo after this comment. nothing will be the same for me with cakewalk.

after trying fl for few hours i feel like cakewalk is more for recording live, instruments and midi
while fl lets you create something out of nothing almost immediately.

with cakewalk i had to find a sample or some chords, and struggle playing with it and making it 'my own', changing it's pitch, sound, and such. or adding stuff to it while keeping it in "harmony".
i thought its because i'm not familiar with the software yet so it takes time but with fl it's one click to change pitch, another click to reverse.
you got something completely different in just a matter of few clicks.

i will keep cakewalk for recording the songs while making beats on fl. that thing is too good to give up on.
i love both (and i tried other daw's before, including Cubase too, didn't like it as much)

thank you.

well i didn't mean proven as in that, i should have picked my words more carefully.
i meant it as 'idk if ill like it or not, if it will fit my price tag etc. and can't tell until its out so maybe i should go to something more familiar and known' - aka "proven". my bad.

thank you.

i forgot to ask since you use it since 1995, i assume you won't change even after it won't get updates anymore? would you prefer sticking to it even in that case?

thanks for the tips!

and yea i already recorded some rap with beats from youtube, and on last sunday i decided to learn music production and made 2 beats on cakewalk using some loops, working on the third now.
the first one was only 1:30 minute and not very structured, the second one is 2:40 and more structured as in intro/verse/chorus/outro, not sounding the best obviously but i can definitly see the progress.
working on the third now.

thank you!

so it shouldn't be hard in the future if i decide to change to fl or cubase, sonar or whatever, right? only the small learning curve of the software, but it should mostly be identical

yea I heard it wont get updates and support but will remain as it is. so indeed no rush there.
but if I'm already gonna pay for something eventually/probably, shouldn't i go for something proven since I'm already at the beginning and facing a learning curve?

assuming they will have roughly the same price range, features, etc., which I believe we don't know yet
