Very nice explanatory video! Early on, You mention a tutorial You've made, concerning the audio setup. I can't seem to see it in Your description though? The reason for my asking, is due to crackling/distorting sound, whenever the drum/snare, or whatever is playing. This was the case off the top, when I installed FL studio (restart didn't help). I have a creative soundblaster z soundcard. I'm assuming it has something to do with this.. Thx
Hi, Is the master channel of the mixer peaking into the red? If you have any peaks over 0dB it will distort. Please do let me know, We will get to the bottom of this :) Michael
In The Mix If the master channel is located in the top, next to the counter, then no - IT stays within acceptable limits, when I play some of the demos. I don't know if this is a clue, but when i pause or stop the music, there's an echo which very slowly fades out. I just changed the Device from asio to SPDIF-out (Sound blaster z) This improved the sound quality dramatically. I think this did the trick! Thank you for your reply!
This is actually a very good and straight forward tutorial. No having me ask questions or guess, no over-explaining elements, and brings all the different elements together in a language that is universal. I've seen plenty of DAW tutorials being new, but this is by far the best so far, and makes me confident about using the DAW the first time.

Hands down, this is THE best beginner video I've watched. Others want to brag about all the sample, loops, etc they have. You keep things simple, straight to the point and well organized.
same, is like I want to kind of to know software immediately as the melodies already playing in my head, I just need to put them quickly somewhere into the program :DD..Heeeeeelp meee :D

I feel a bit bad because i opened this video and rolled my eyes thinking in the first minute it would be one of those videos that never gets to the point because of the general intro. I threw it to 2x speed but after another minute i realized i completely misjudged it, and it was a perfect crash course into the subject stated with no BS. Cheers mate good work, you got a new subscriber for life. Dont ever let anyone tell you to change your method of lecturing.
how do you stop the sound from chaning when you pick a guitar sound or so, it sounds different when i test it out on the side and different when i insert it?

This man is so good at explanation ...since I have been watching FL studio tutorials , this is my first time to really understand it . I love FL studio. THANKS TO THE THE TEACHER.
I bought FL producer version and despaired. I couldn't even find a menu. No delete, go back and years away from saving. I moved to Cakewalk but found it more picturesque and not the same high end quality. Back to FL and stumbled on these tutorials. This very video is the key to the door. I'm in now and learning. Exactly what I wanted. The snag with this DAW business is the terminology. It's alien to me. Pattern and all the rest of it is a change to everything I called things before and now have a reminder check sheet beside me to help me convert to DAW speak. Turns out I knew what path I wanted to take but it was all coded to FL DAW speak. No samples just constant process routine over and over untill I can confidently open from turning on my computer and swiftly open all required and load (arm, tweak, adjust) basic tunes and segregate to work each channel individually. A life ring flung to me a drowning man in a vast ocean of DAW.. I've now learned to doggy paddle and soon be taking my first strokes to swim. Great fluent articulate tutorials. Subscribed and downloaded as a concise reference. Many thanks.
Being the 1,300th commenter, knowing that this will go down in a void of nothingness: You're blessed with the gift of Tutorialism! I literally don't have anything to complain about, this tutorial is legit perfect!
I was dreading getting started with FL Studio. It looked so complicated. This video has made it so much clearer and I can't wait to get started. Thank you so much.

After so many years of being confused and intimidated by this software I finally understand how to use it. I never thought the day would come lol. Thanks for the awesome tutorial!
Ok yeah that's the perfect word to describe it. I've been sitting on it for years and i'm just so intimidated by it. But this video helped more in 17 minutes than i've seen in years.
*Just some advice for people watching this video for the first time* I watched this video and tried to use FL Studio and I couldn't work it. Its my third time going through this video and this time I connected to PC to an external monitor and I'm watching this video on one screen and working through exactly what Michael is doing and it is a big help, I'm definitely starting to get the hang of it. Just thought I'd share.
Thanks. Last version I used was many years ago. Having just upgraded to the latest version, boy has FL Studio moved on. This video is a fantastic overview, just what I was looking for to get back into it!

I can't believe literally no one is talking about how satisfying his voice sounds. Oh shit...

Hey everyone, I feel disappointed in myself for this having to be the case, but I feel the need to be honest. Life stuff got me down hard during the time I wrote this comment and shortly thereafter, and I allowed time to slip me by, and didn't pursue making music. I know that it's super disappointing, and I feel like I've almost lied by keeping this comment up and letting others see it, but I'm not going to delete it because I know 300+ people resonated with how I felt at that exact moment. Genuinely, I am sorry I let you down. Even though I feel guilty, I feel like being honest here is going to be the most meaningful. I guarantee this - I am going to pursue music one way or another. It is my dream to make art that inspires people and shows them so much of the beauty of life. Even if I let myself slip, that won't keep me down forever. Thanks for asking about how things went, and I will respond to you all in 1 month to see how things have evolved if I remember or if someone is interested. My failure is just that - mine. But I know you all who are passionate about making music have the exact same capacity I do to learn this software. So go do what you love, and I will find my way back there too!
Your tutorials are appreciated. You explain everything so simply and show the fundamentals of producing. Many people and myself thank you for uploading this for free and providing education to beginners.
when i first opened FL studio i was so confused on how to start because its so complex and packed with stuff but watching ur video made me understand how to start you did an amazing job with the tutorial thank you!
@Arjun Menon What worked for me was watching other people make beats on youtube, like Internet Money and Kbeazy, and then slowly learn what they are doing. I would learn how to lay down drums on the channel rack and use some loops, and then once you have your drums sounding good start learning how to make your own melodies. Good luck bro!
This is by far the best FL Studio basic tutorial, I remember when I just started learning, this was so helpful!! I’ve now been releasing edm songs. Thank you In The Mix❤️
@@athrunskye Not at all, if anything your brain will pick out what sounds good and what doesn't. For example, finding out which notes fit into a particular chord (chords make up the basis of most music) - you don't need to even know the notes, just keep experimenting until the notes harmonise and sound good together. I'd recommend going through a piano theory video on YT and making notes, there's a good 2h30 one which sounds looong but it will teach you a lot of the fundamentals of piano. You don't even need to sit through the entire thing to get a good grasp on the basics.
@@quinn9598 do you have link for that music theory video which is 2 hours long? I know lypur had some of the best and comprehensive music theory videos, but they are old and super long.
This is by far, the best tutorial I have found so far. I feel like I’ll be spending a lot of time on your channel! Thanks man! Keep up the good work! Cheers
Returning here 2 years after I first saw the video, I realised just now how much I have learnt. I am so grateful for your channel, everything I know, you've taught me. It means so much to so many people, you are helping us pursue our dreams! Love from Sweden 🎵
With all the Fl Studio tutorials that exist on YT, yours just created that "light bulb illumination" moment in my head. Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
Hi Michael, I just wanted to say a big thank you. I've tried using DAWs maybe 5 times and as soon as I download one, within minutes just quit, being overwhelmed by it all. I decided to try again and dedicate at least an hour a day and sticking with it. Finding this video has been EXTREMELY helpful-you've explained it absolutely perfectly without any jargon or big words that other tutors just don't consider that beginners would not know. After watching this and trying for a couple hours already, I feel like I am less scared of the software and finding it fairly easy to navigate! Thank you once again.
Best FL Studio tutorial for beginners on TH-cam! I'm an absolute beginner and all the other tutorials I've found on TH-cam have been so overwhelming, but this was absolutely brilliant! Thank you!
this actually was, and I'm just starting myself, I have no idea what I'm doing but I have a ton of ideas in my head. Time to figure this out and get this music out.
@@RobsZombies hmu on ig (blues.rar) I won't mind helping you...I do hip hop tracks so if that's not your interest please let me know ahead of time...cheers!
For all worth, This should be last video when you done with beginner guides, & Start with easy beats FL Tutorials th-cam.com/video/a4ZI4R2pvAI/w-d-xo.html
I watched this a couple of years ago and thought it sounds great if you want to make pop music or whatever, but went off and did sound scape installations and forgot about it. I just returned to it, thinking, lets see I can make a track that seems even remotely interesting and wow, just changed my music horizon! Great work, Michael!
I’m amazed how well this is explained. I’ve never heard a lot of these words, but the order and purpose of these menus and buttons makes complete sense. Only a couple other things I need to find out before I can actually make it work, but you’ve got more in depth videos on pretty much everything. Feels like I can finally move forward with making music.
i've been messing around on a friends FL studio for years, finally bought it. I found your videos and instantly subscribed and have been watching one or two every night, SUPER helpful, chill and clear. Great content, can't wait to watch them all.
I've been trying to get to understand Music Production and a DAW with a guide that's not made more complicated and this hits the right spot. Great content my man
I've been playing on garageband for a couple weeks and just got the trial of fls. I was worried there wouldn't be any clear tutorials, but yours is perfect. These are going to takes loads of time off the learning process.
footwinner1 I'm so glad I can help, I'm in the process of making a whole FL 20 playlist which you can find on the main page of my TH-cam channel. That should help you understand the important stuff. Good Luck :)
Your tutorial videos are amazing. I decided to go back to creating music after 16 years. FL Studio is so easy to get into, but also offers incredible possibilities to those who master it. I am almost done with my first track, but there is so much more to discover and learn. This will be a fantastic journey!
Hands down this is one of the best tutorials I've seen on any subject, ever! Clear, concise and incredibly informative and easy to follow. Thank you so much for making stuff in FL a lot easier to understand.
I`ve been using FL 20 since about 2020, that`s when I first started messing around and its always cool to go back and watch these. NEVER TOO LATE TO LEARN MORE!
Honestly once explained it's fairly intuitive. Thank you for breaking it down so nicely for us newbies! Can't wait to play with the full version after becoming familiar through the demo!
So far the only tutorial I've seen that takes it slow and doesn't require prior experience to music design. I bought FL Studio 2 years ago and never got into music design because I could never learn the software. Thank you for reeling me back in!
I was given FL Studio as a gift in 2011, and up until recently, I was so overwhelmed by the complexity of it that I never got past just using it to multi-track record. I would play with an effect or two on my recordings, but I never touched the piano role or the step sequencer. Never created a pattern ever. Not one. I've watched dozens of videos lately and have learned all kinds of interesting stuff about mic placement, effective EQing, compression, and recording live music in general... but none of them explained the sequencer, and how patterns work like this one just did. I saw the sequencer at the start, but it would quickly disappear (I never knew about 'detaching' something either - I assume that works with Edison too) and I never thought about after that. Now, at this moment, I am inspired! I am going to go make my first pattern! My first beat!! Here I go! Wish me luck.
I have no clue about music creation, any of these programs or instruments, but this tutorial made it very clear that even an absolute beginner can start making something of their own. Thank you very much!
5 years later and on a slightly newer version, this tutorial still helped me out a ton! Starting to use fl for school and simple music making and this video helped out a lot with getting a simple beat going
Well that was...informative. It's just so much to cram into my head, but I really hope I can remember all of this. I have a bunch of ideas for songs and a couple EDM and Dubstep goals for myself, and I guess I better start learning somewhere. Thanks for the great vid!
u see that little cog option button on the bottom near the fullscreen button? if u click on that u can chose to slow it down or speed it up. i know u are joking but still letting ya know
Outstanding, crystal clear and logical! In just less than 20 minutes, you give a clear understanding of FL logic and its intuitive interface. I learned more here than by watching those last days hours of Cakewalk tutorials which just let me confused and frustrated. I will watch your vid a second time then go on with the more detailed ones of yours. Thank you for offering this so nicely!
This has been the most intuitive tutorial I have every experienced. For anything. Seriously. Great job on the video my guy (: Keep em' comin' and thanks for all of the help!!
Really respect and appreciate people like yourself who give their time and expert knowledge so others can benefit and enjoy music production. Thanks again!
You are by far the best teacher for FL Studio 20. It's very complicated at first - overwhelming, actually - but, you make it doable for anyone. I appreciate it!!
I am in the process of learning how to use FL studio 21 trial version and I agree. It all looks overwhelming but fun at the same time. My first DAW was Ejay D6 The Revolution.
I was always fascinated by trap beats, been listening to trap long time and i finally decided that i will try to make my own but i was so confused when i downloaded and opened FL studio 20. I couldnt find any good and informative video for beginners to help me understand the basics of the software untill now. Your guide is very very good quite simple and very helpful. I gave you a like and a sub coz you did great work on the video, thank u for your help o7
Thank you I'm just getting started with FL Studio PC, I'm using FL Studio Mobile for 2 years now. And I decided to get a PC and learn more advanced music production.
If your GMS sounds all weird and distorted, click on it, see on the left hand side of the GMS master module it will say "basses" click on the program name drop down menu which lists all the different bass sounds. For some reason it makes the default "Agressive TE" make sure u change it to "Analog Bass 1 TE" to get the same sound as him. Hope this helped!
Thanks a lot! I already made a video of this problem and I was about to post it to the comments, but then I realised I have to check the comments first :)
this was the first ever video ive seen when i started using fl studio im moving on to my 6th year of using fl studio. this is the video that kick started my journey. i want to say thank you
Congrats ! I started right before covid when the recession hit. I held those stocks and made a killing. I bought dividend stocks and made a lot during covid.
I'm convinced that the big investors and analysts are trying to scare us to keep us poor and ignorant to the market.. because its steady doing good after all the jobless and market crash talks
The one effective technique I use is staying in touch with a financial coach for guidance, it might sound basic or generic, but getting in touch with a financial adviser was how I was able to outperform the market during the pandemic and raise a profit of roughly $40
I can already feel my beats improving after watching this tutorial, thanks! What sounds do you recommend btw? I currently use Prodsounds kits because they are so cheap / free

It's about rhapsody in E
I bought FL producer version and despaired. I couldn't even find a menu. No delete, go back and years away from saving.
I moved to Cakewalk but found it more picturesque and not the same high end quality. Back to FL and stumbled on these tutorials. This very video is the key to the door. I'm in now and learning. Exactly what I wanted. The snag with this DAW business is the terminology. It's alien to me. Pattern and all the rest of it is a change to everything I called things before and now have a reminder check sheet beside me to help me convert to DAW speak. Turns out I knew what path I wanted to take but it was all coded to FL DAW speak. No samples just constant process routine over and over untill I can confidently open from turning on my computer and swiftly open all required and load (arm, tweak, adjust) basic tunes and segregate to work each channel individually.
A life ring flung to me a drowning man in a vast ocean of DAW.. I've now learned to doggy paddle and soon be taking my first strokes to swim.
Great fluent articulate tutorials. Subscribed and downloaded as a concise reference. Many thanks.

You are a very gifted teacher. I've been teaching music for over 50 years and really appreciate your video being a beginner in FL studio. Thanks.
wow! we always have everything to learn! Great to know you!
I was dreading getting started with FL Studio. It looked so complicated. This video has made it so much clearer and I can't wait to get started. Thank you so much.

After so many years of being confused and intimidated by this software I finally understand how to use it. I never thought the day would come lol. Thanks for the awesome tutorial!
How much have you improved since that point that you said this ? I’m deciding whether I should buy it or not
@@themagicjacktv8223 me too bro i say lets just fucking do it
Ok yeah that's the perfect word to describe it. I've been sitting on it for years and i'm just so intimidated by it. But this video helped more in 17 minutes than i've seen in years.
*Just some advice for people watching this video for the first time*
I watched this video and tried to use FL Studio and I couldn't work it. Its my third time going through this video and this time I connected to PC to an external monitor and I'm watching this video on one screen and working through exactly what Michael is doing and it is a big help, I'm definitely starting to get the hang of it. Just thought I'd share.

Don't feel bad
My first time ever gettin on fl studio was in 2017 man it a whole year to use to Fl studio
Thanks. Last version I used was many years ago. Having just upgraded to the latest version, boy has FL Studio moved on. This video is a fantastic overview, just what I was looking for to get back into it!

Hey everyone, I feel disappointed in myself for this having to be the case, but I feel the need to be honest. Life stuff got me down hard during the time I wrote this comment and shortly thereafter, and I allowed time to slip me by, and didn't pursue making music. I know that it's super disappointing, and I feel like I've almost lied by keeping this comment up and letting others see it, but I'm not going to delete it because I know 300+ people resonated with how I felt at that exact moment. Genuinely, I am sorry I let you down. Even though I feel guilty, I feel like being honest here is going to be the most meaningful.
I guarantee this - I am going to pursue music one way or another. It is my dream to make art that inspires people and shows them so much of the beauty of life. Even if I let myself slip, that won't keep me down forever. Thanks for asking about how things went, and I will respond to you all in 1 month to see how things have evolved if I remember or if someone is interested. My failure is just that - mine. But I know you all who are passionate about making music have the exact same capacity I do to learn this software. So go do what you love, and I will find my way back there too!
Your tutorials are appreciated. You explain everything so simply and show the fundamentals of producing. Many people and myself thank you for uploading this for free and providing education to beginners.

Watched this video a year ago when i first started producing on FL and now i mastered the DAW almost entirely, crazy how time flies
i am the opposite lol
Any tips? 😂 I’m a newbie learning
@@furgaliciousss8844 just stay up all night trying something new
@Arjun Menon What worked for me was watching other people make beats on youtube, like Internet Money and Kbeazy, and then slowly learn what they are doing. I would learn how to lay down drums on the channel rack and use some loops, and then once you have your drums sounding good start learning how to make your own melodies. Good luck bro!
Sameeee hahahah, you just have to play with the daw and you gaing experience slowly
This is by far the best FL Studio basic tutorial, I remember when I just started learning, this was so helpful!! I’ve now been releasing edm songs. Thank you In The Mix❤️
Meyo true
Your music's cool btw
Does knowing how to play musical instruments necessary?
@@athrunskye Not at all, if anything your brain will pick out what sounds good and what doesn't.
For example, finding out which notes fit into a particular chord (chords make up the basis of most music) - you don't need to even know the notes, just keep experimenting until the notes harmonise and sound good together.
I'd recommend going through a piano theory video on YT and making notes, there's a good 2h30 one which sounds looong but it will teach you a lot of the fundamentals of piano. You don't even need to sit through the entire thing to get a good grasp on the basics.
@@quinn9598 do you have link for that music theory video which is 2 hours long? I know lypur had some of the best and comprehensive music theory videos, but they are old and super long.
This is by far, the best tutorial I have found so far. I feel like I’ll be spending a lot of time on your channel! Thanks man! Keep up the good work! Cheers
Returning here 2 years after I first saw the video, I realised just now how much I have learnt. I am so grateful for your channel, everything I know, you've taught me. It means so much to so many people, you are helping us pursue our dreams! Love from Sweden 🎵

Hi Michael, I just wanted to say a big thank you. I've tried using DAWs maybe 5 times and as soon as I download one, within minutes just quit, being overwhelmed by it all. I decided to try again and dedicate at least an hour a day and sticking with it. Finding this video has been EXTREMELY helpful-you've explained it absolutely perfectly without any jargon or big words that other tutors just don't consider that beginners would not know. After watching this and trying for a couple hours already, I feel like I am less scared of the software and finding it fairly easy to navigate! Thank you once again.
The comment section is very positive and downright encouraging! Love it!
Best FL Studio tutorial for beginners on TH-cam! I'm an absolute beginner and all the other tutorials I've found on TH-cam have been so overwhelming, but this was absolutely brilliant! Thank you!
This should be the first video that pops up when you're new to making music🔥

I watched this a couple of years ago and thought it sounds great if you want to make pop music or whatever, but went off and did sound scape installations and forgot about it. I just returned to it, thinking, lets see I can make a track that seems even remotely interesting and wow, just changed my music horizon! Great work, Michael!
I’m amazed how well this is explained. I’ve never heard a lot of these words, but the order and purpose of these menus and buttons makes complete sense. Only a couple other things I need to find out before I can actually make it work, but you’ve got more in depth videos on pretty much everything. Feels like I can finally move forward with making music.
yooo a fellow gd player :D
just finished making my first track! thanks bro for all the help with learning fl studio. much love
i've been messing around on a friends FL studio for years, finally bought it. I found your videos and instantly subscribed and have been watching one or two every night, SUPER helpful, chill and clear. Great content, can't wait to watch them all.
I've been trying to get to understand Music Production and a DAW with a guide that's not made more complicated and this hits the right spot. Great content my man
I've been playing on garageband for a couple weeks and just got the trial of fls. I was worried there wouldn't be any clear tutorials, but yours is perfect. These are going to takes loads of time off the learning process.
footwinner1 I'm so glad I can help, I'm in the process of making a whole FL 20 playlist which you can find on the main page of my TH-cam channel. That should help you understand the important stuff. Good Luck :)
Your tutorial videos are amazing. I decided to go back to creating music after 16 years. FL Studio is so easy to get into, but also offers incredible possibilities to those who master it. I am almost done with my first track, but there is so much more to discover and learn. This will be a fantastic journey!
Hands down this is one of the best tutorials I've seen on any subject, ever! Clear, concise and incredibly informative and easy to follow. Thank you so much for making stuff in FL a lot easier to understand.
Thank you so much Chris, that's what I try to do in all my videos and I'm glad it's working :)
I`ve been using FL 20 since about 2020, that`s when I first started messing around and its always cool to go back and watch these. NEVER TOO LATE TO LEARN MORE!
Honestly once explained it's fairly intuitive. Thank you for breaking it down so nicely for us newbies! Can't wait to play with the full version after becoming familiar through the demo!
So far the only tutorial I've seen that takes it slow and doesn't require prior experience to music design.
I bought FL Studio 2 years ago and never got into music design because I could never learn the software. Thank you for reeling me back in!
I'm too stoned for this, I'll be back later...

As a complete beginner to fl studio and music production, this is by far the best tutorial I have seen. Genuinely, thank you!
I can feel how happy you are because of the update.
Great video as always!
I was given FL Studio as a gift in 2011, and up until recently, I was so overwhelmed by the complexity of it that I never got past just using it to multi-track record. I would play with an effect or two on my recordings, but I never touched the piano role or the step sequencer. Never created a pattern ever. Not one. I've watched dozens of videos lately and have learned all kinds of interesting stuff about mic placement, effective EQing, compression, and recording live music in general... but none of them explained the sequencer, and how patterns work like this one just did. I saw the sequencer at the start, but it would quickly disappear (I never knew about 'detaching' something either - I assume that works with Edison too) and I never thought about after that. Now, at this moment, I am inspired! I am going to go make my first pattern! My first beat!! Here I go! Wish me luck.
I’ve watched hours of videos and this one is the first that explains it in a way a complete beginner could understand! Great video 👍
Couldn't agree more!
I don’t understand a single word this man’s saying and I’m being 100% honest
Thanks!
I have no clue about music creation, any of these programs or instruments, but this tutorial made it very clear that even an absolute beginner can start making something of their own. Thank you very much!
You are a living god among men, a legend worthy of praise. What you've uploaded here, will echo into eternity!

5 years later and on a slightly newer version, this tutorial still helped me out a ton! Starting to use fl for school and simple music making and this video helped out a lot with getting a simple beat going
Well that was...informative. It's just so much to cram into my head, but I really hope I can remember all of this. I have a bunch of ideas for songs and a couple EDM and Dubstep goals for myself, and I guess I better start learning somewhere. Thanks for the great vid!

If your GMS sounds all weird and distorted, click on it, see on the left hand side of the GMS master module it will say "basses" click on the program name drop down menu which lists all the different bass sounds. For some reason it makes the default "Agressive TE" make sure u change it to "Analog Bass 1 TE" to get the same sound as him. Hope this helped!
