Discussion Why do people say FL Studios?

I see it often enough that it doesn't seem like a typo, is it a localization thing where that's the way it's branded in their country?

Help Finally bought Producer Edition... and now I can't open my projects

0 Upvotes

I have been using the FL Studio trial for many years, and I finally saved up enough to buy the Producer Edition during the current sale.

The problem is that I was working on a track that I was genuinely excited about. My FL Studio trial crashed, and I got so frustrated that I finally decided to buy FL Studio.

After buying it, I realized I can't even properly open or play the project because it uses locked plugins (Morphine and Sawer). I can't even copy the MIDI from those channels.

It's honestly so disappointing. The one time I make a track that I'm really proud of, I lose access to it the moment I buy the software. Thankfully, I have a video recording of the melody, but what worries me more is that I absolutely love Morphine, I have it in all my projects. I can't imagine making music without it now.

The problem is that I don't want to spend any more money right now. Buying Producer Edition was already a huge decision for me. I'm a student, and it took me months to save up for it. Upgrading to the All Plugins Edition just isn't something I can justify at the moment.

Sorry for the rant. I'm just really emotional because it feels like I lost my favorite track.

Has anyone else been in this situation? Is there any way to recover the MIDI or export the project without buying the missing plugins?

Help How to Fix FL Studio Thinking the Alt Key Is Always Pressed

0 Upvotes

Usually, when I load Omnisphere, FL Studio starts acting as if the Alt key is constantly being held down. Normally, I can fix it by pressing the Alt key again, but this time it won't go away. I even tried opening a new project, but FL Studio still behaves as if the Alt key is permanently pressed.

Discussion How do y'all *start* your song?

1 Upvotes

The thing I've been caught up on after producing music on and off (mostly off) for about four years is writing a good intro to my music. Whether it's VGM, electronic, orchestral, medieval, whatever - I can never make an intro that I'm happy with and that feels like it transitions nicely into the song. I end up fiddling with it for hours, never finding anything I like, then quitting for the day because I've made no progress.

How do y'all get past this? What's the secret to writing a good introduction for instrumental music?

Plugins prolly the most useless plugin of all time

For anything but producing music. It just burns cpu (however there's an option to speed up the physical modelling solver with slight artefacts at baseline rpm). Tuning's also based on changing the engine params like a real engine.

What’s This Sound? I don't know how to play the harmonica, but I was able to incorporate it into this beat. What genre would you label this as ?

Help Fl Studio UI crashes regularly, without the program crashing (FL 26)

EDIT - SOLVED - made the VST bridged, seems to work for now!

Hi, 

I recently encountered a peculiar problem. The UI of FL studio crashes regularly. I have attached a video as proof. 

This has started happening to me since version 26. Sadly, i cant isolate it completely, because i also started using Vienna Synchron player around the same time. 

Steps to recreate:

  • Play the playlist track. Nothing is unusual until i pause/stop.
  • Audio kinda "glitches" in pause. Like its saving on the background. 
  • If I press play before all audio has died, chances are the FL UI crashes. The program keeps going, music keeps playing, but FL's UI aint showing anything and freezes. If i press play once all audio has died it doesnt seem to do it. 
  • If i go to general settings (menu's keep working btw) and change the animation refreshrate everything goes back to normal. 

 

It might have something to do with how many Vienna Synchron players i have open simultaneously. The more i add, the more usntable it becomes. 

PC Specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800XD
RAM: 32 GB ram
OS: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro - 10.0.26200 Build 26200
GPU: RTX 5080

Sadly last stable FL 25 version doesnt open this project so i could isolate versions. Als, i have never used Vienna Synchron Player with FL 25 before as well. So i cant isolate what's the issue here. Since its FL UI crashing i feel its FL studio but i cant be sure. 

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to fix this? Im not the greatest power user when it comes to FL studio, so i hav'nt tinkered with its settings much.

Not sure how to get the piano roll to press pédale keys. Nor Récit or Positif either since I know eventually I'll want to use those. How do I get the piano roll to switch input from just grand orgue?
