You may need to go back to the 'Trance_1' file and change a few things if needed and rerender the MIDI.ĭJ RISE I am Google. And the whole MIDI will be there for your listening pleasure. Then when it comes to exporting just export the song. This will help you build your patterns faster and easier. Use this feature when working with percussive elements, like hi-hats, to make quick slices. And when you use 'Prepare For MIDI Export' and save it, it will only save to 'Trance_1'. What is Quick chop in FL Studio Quick chop is a feature that automatically slices your note selection into 1/16th notes. For example if the file is called 'Trance' it will now become 'Trance_1'. So before you use it, press 'Ctrl-N' to save a new version of th current (un-MIDI-ed) file.
Keep in mind that there is no undo function when using the 'Prepare For MIDI Export' macro. Then with the different synths or basslines you can change the sound the MIDI channel makes by changing the 'Patch'.
Of course you will need a new pattern for snare build-ups, crashes, etc. This way you only have to do it in one pattern and you can repeat it as many times as you want using the blocks in the playlist. Example move 'Kick' to 'Acoustic Bass Drum' or 'Bass drum 1'. When I want to make the drum loops I just copy the current drum patterns into a MIDI channel with a Channel of '10' (to get the drum sounds) and then arrange the notes in the piano roll to the respective drum sounds. Yeah that's usually how I do it if it is just a small loop or something like that.īut when I am exporting a full song or a lengthy MIDI that includes drums and different synths I usually arrange the song in the playlist.
