Hey.... Big brother Jonas....I know u will kill it for Ur next song.....I want to be like u.....I actually prefer u even if their are way more popular DJs out their......cause u give Ur most of the time entertaining Ur fans and educating Ur younger pupils (including me☺️) .....u are so sweet....I also want to be at the position where u are.☺️ Once again....love u.🧡💙🖤💛❤️💛💚💜( ꈍᴗꈍ).
Something that has helped me a BUNCH over the past 13 years of producing is HAVE A SET OF MIXER CHANNELS PREDETERMINED! For instance, 1 is always the kick, 10 is always piano, 14 is always the main lead, 20 is always bass, so on and so forth. Also, RENAME YOUR CHANNELS AND RECOLOR THEM! For instance pad is pink, lead is blue, arp is turquoise. If you have multiple pads and want them next to eachother, label the first as “pads” and the rest of the pads as a spacebar. This makes the channel name blank and is very organized. Lastly, HAVE A BUS *AND* A SIDECHAINING CHANNEL! Having a bus channel before the sidechain channel allows you to add effects you might want on everything such as a compressor to just help even everything out a bit more. It also allows you to pick and choose what you want sidechained. Sometimes you can have two bus channels, one routed to the sidechain and the other routed to the master. Just a few things that helped me along the way!
for me, my recording workflow is this: - save your flp to a folder dedicated to your song. - options>project general settings>click "AUTO" on the data folder tab. now anything you record in the mixer will be automatically saved to that folder. no need to right click and manually find the location. you won't be tempted to save it to a random place where it can get lost.

This is the greatest Soundgoodizer tutorial of All Time' Like 1 minute in I learned something new, theres so much tips that other people havent explained yet as well, thanks Mr. Aden boi
Jonas thank you so so much for showing us that reverse reverb trick its absolutely amazing. My mixing has come leaps and bounds since i started watching you and i really appreciate all the advice you give. Keep on grinding man you’re amazing 💪💪💪
Your workflow is so amazing man! Thank you for the automation tip. I was so scared to make unnecessary automation because I didn't know how to delete it back. Keep up sharing good things to people!!!
Thanks a lot for the info. And brother, that room looks spectacular... I love the dark colors, the black, mixing with the dark brown, the hanging lights and those sound diffusers... simply exquisite my friend!
hey jonas just a tip for you: to automate third party plugins quicker you can just ACTIVATE the KNOB at the top (four steps to the right of the computer midi keys button) and nudge the the parameter you want to automate and then u should be able to to just create an automation from the options when you right click it TO BETTER EXPLAIN: TURN ON THE KNOB LOGO BUTTON (four steps to the right of the computer midi keys button) THEN TURN NUDGE THE PARAMETER IN THE THIRD PARTY PLUGIN YOU WANT TO AUTOMATE THE BUTTON WILL BLINK ONCE THEN U CAN JUST AUTOMATE IT BY RIGHT CLICKING THE BUTTON HOPE this helps u big fan cheers ~JO-E
13:21 how did you do that it is like all rising at the same level? Even when you moved the mouse up or down, the previous levels moved, so its like stairs, if u know what I mean Like so he can see
Jonas can you make a series where you take us with you when your taveling for shows naybe like 'shutting up with jonas aden' or something like that Edit : a toilet tour is also interesting
@@NelsenGChess Some just can't afford it.. especially when things like rent take priority but you're still interested in music, and I get it, I've been there. I suggest to those who can't buy FL, if you have an iMac device, you have a built-in one called GarageBand. Also there are some free web version (Bandlab, soundation, etc), so find a one suitable to you.
u can... if you to delete that automation, go to project events and then delete the automation from there, in that way, you would be further able to change the position of the fader, with no automation on it... in simple words, you can undo the fader automation through project events
Actually, there are two more amazing tips you didn't mentioned: 1. Want Big, fat and loud track just in your face? Put soundgoodizer on everything you can. 2. Pray to Fl God every time you finish your track, it'll decrease denied submissions!! Thanks Jonas
Yes put soundgoodizer everywhere and your mix will sound crap. That's the biggest error every newbie makes, increasing the loudness of something will make you think something sounds better but it's not.
5:02 If you go to FL Studio's general settings, in the bottom left "Advanced" pane there is an option "Don't initialize controls automatically". Enable that and you never have to deal with this again. 9:01 You can just hold the right shift key to cut and hold left ctrl to select without changing modes/tools. 👌🏻😬
i love jonas cuz he helps the community so much without thoguht about getting anything back for giving . thank you jonas for the tips it helps me alot ! :)
You don't have to go to Articulator menu to copy/paste state. You can copy/paste directly from Wrench Button :) It's just a second less but as U saying it's all about the workflow 😛 anyway nice tutorial, love right + alt 😁 Thx Jonas ♥️
Another useful trick not a lot of people seem to know is that you can actually link alot of different parameters to the same automation with the link to parameter option, so if you want a specific reverb to apply over 9 different leads for example, you could link all of their wet levels to the same automation to declutter
A good way to improve users' workflow and learning curve... Time Stamp TH-cam headers...gotta wade thru the whole vid for 2/3 stuff I knew, but like 3 unknowns that, after using since Fruity 2.8, just CHANGED MY LIFE. Almost clicked off early and missed the gems. So firstly, THANK YOU! Invaluable info here. But also, timestamps in description would be prestige.... Keep up the good work!
Just ALWAYS great content from you Jonas..! did know a lot of the tips, but still just great that you take the time to make these videos that explain and really helps educate people.. Really appreciate it. :)
Hey Jonas! I have two very useful tips for you, maybe you can learn something or share them in your next FL Studio tips video :) 1. A very useful trick is to right click on the "track" panel in the playlist, select "track mode" > "instrument track" > "choose your instrument/vst here". This will link the instrument as a channel, give it an automatic mixer channel and everytime you rename or change color on either one (channel, playlist track or mixer channel) they will all change together. 2. A second useful trick is to use the arrangement section in the playlist. You can insert reference tracks, put markers at the top (intro, verse, buildup, chorus/drop etc.) then save the arrangement for quicker arrangement templates. I like to keep one arrangement template for messing around with sounds, and then i have 5-6 different arrangements to choose from, depending on style i'm producing. It might take 5-10 minutes to set it all up, but once you've done it, you will be so glad you did it!

Always interesting to hear how other DAWs are like. Ableton for instance has been doing this for a long time, and thats just by default
