Using Piano Rolls and Automations Clips: REMOVED

I am going to remake it using HD technologies as well as  higher resolution and better quality. This will be a placeholder thread for now. Please discuss what kind of tutorials you would like me to make or in other words what topics you would like me to cover and I will do my best.

Would have been nice to have this a year ago..I've learned by myself now:P I'll definitely watch to see if I can pick up any tips though

Overall FL studio is OK, but the quality of its starting VSTs, and how the arrange screen/pattern bar work, really annoy me. I would much prefer being able to go into a single group of notes, and being able to just edit that, rather than having to copy the previous pattern, paste it into a new pattern, and edit the new pattern.

I can see where you're coming from, but if you look at it, FL is mainly just a sampler anyways. It's not really made for making your own raw stuff, it just has the option for you to do so. However, it is a really expensive, so you would expect them to do a bit better at certain aspects.

A couple of things, actually. 
    - Sidechaining
    - beat/sample slicing
    - general melody creation
    - keeping in key
    - chord progressions

and thats just the beginning of sequencing... never mind the beginning tutorials for mixing the music. also, you could probably include some tutorials for general setup of FL studio, and for how to set up the projects in the mixer and arrange screen.

@silentthunder: maybe, but it flaunts it's sequencer, and many of it's vst's are aimed at making music with a software synth.  and yeah, except in my case... I dont pay for it... and I just use it to practice what im learning in college XD

*sigh* sorry, this is why I try not to find myself on Evilzone while I'm blazed. General Melody creation would be a nice one, the others I wouldn't need, but I'm sure others could use it, those are great ideas. I personally could use some good tuts on how to put music together and make it sound good. I've made a few great lines but I've never been able to make an actual track.. I'm sure I have more ideas but I won't remember them until tomorrow probably lol, but that's ok cuz I'll be messing around with it in the studio tomorrow.
