They may have the snare a little to the right. So another thing to think about with a drum kit is that the kit itself is spread out around the person who is playing. Lowering the volume of one will give it a more natural feel to the listener. This can be really effective on kicks when you have two hits side by side. I can adjust the blue bar down to lessen the volume, or the strength that the sample is played at. This is the tab that will allow you to adjust how hard the sample is played. You want to make sure that you are looking at the velocity tab. If you click on that, a window will open up that has several tabs on it. There is a button in the top right of the channel rack that looks like this: It’s the one highlighted in a blue color. They might hit it a little softer at some point, or a little louder at another.Īll of these small variations in the level of the sound give it a more organic feel.Īnd FL Studio has a way to change the strength of each hit.
When a person is playing, they don’t hit the drum the same way every time. Once you have laid in a pattern, you will realize that it’s triggering the sample with the same strength every time.īut that’s not how drums sound in real life. One of the things that you will find out as you start to create the drum patterns is it can sound mechanical after a while. That will open up a new sampler in the channel rack.Īnother method is to right click on the sample and select open sample in new channel. You can also drag a new sample underneath of the existing samples. That will let you change the name to whatever you want. If you do want to change the name you can right click and pick rename, color, etc.
The name won’t change, but the sound will. If you drag and drop on top of an existing sample in the channel rack, it will replace the sound. You can find other kicks, snares, claps, percussion, effects, etc. Navigate down to Packs, and then you will see a bunch of folders that are available to you. You can open it and close it with the shortcut key ALT+F8. The window on the left side of the FL studio window is the library window. The next thing that you can do is load in other samples. To stretch it out, left click and drag on the right side of the channel rack window. You can stretch the grid size out, so you can go beyond 1 bar (which is the 4 beats that are loaded in by default. Or you can right click on a sample and tell FL Studio to fill in every 2 steps, or every 4. And those buttons tell FL studio when to play the sound. This will most likely be your first experience with creating drum patterns.Īnd it’s pretty intuitive. There is a Kick, a snare, a clap, and a hi hat. The default template that opens in FL Studio has four samples that come preloaded.
