How do you collapse channels? I know this is the wrong place to ask for there IS the IDM creators list, but I felt it silly to suscribe to that just to ask one question that can be answered easily here. Private replies only please. Fred PS For an example of what I mean by collapse, open 5amcheck.flp (should be in FLP Loop Files>Cool stuff). How the hell did he collapse those channels? PSSPSPSP If you create music using mainly Fruityloops, I would love to hear your output and give feedback. Private responses also requested. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I'd really like to register this program, althought the fucker keeps crashing on me whenever I try to load up a song. It'll start loading the samples, then freeze on one of them. Have to reboot my machine. Pity. SimSynth is awesome -- no problems with that -- but I'd like to register both and integrate them into my setup, but I won't be doing that until FruityLoops is stable. Anyone else having similar problems?

fruityloops is weak as fuck. you might enjoy it if you make loop based trance music or some shit. its most useful for beginners. also, programming wise, i dont see how anyone can prefer anything thats mouse oriented. if you dont have money for gear and youre limited to a pc i suggest you use buzz: www.buzz2.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

well, to support the opposition, i find fruity loops to be very useful in making non-looping music. i regularly use it for break-creation and drum-programming, and i've never felt limited to 4/floor beats. it's not the most useful thing for programming melodies, since i haven't spent the time figuring out how to pitchshift in it, but i've heard pretty good melodies based solely in fruity loops. one of its strengths is its ability to record knob patterns in real-time, effectively resampling patterns etc. plus, using a mouse is extremely efficient when you're co-ordinating fruity loops with midi, since it gives you a free hand to tweak hardware or play something on a synth. what programs, besides trackers, still rely heavily on the qwerty keyboard? i've only used my qwerty for cutting/pasting, and even then i barely use it. i always use the mouse... i've found buzz to be a) a tracker, which has its own limitations by nature, and b) a watered down version of reaktor. i've also found that making music in only one program to be limiting and kind of boring. it's much more fun to use multiple programs to achieve multiple effects and tying it all together in the final mix. i usually use 4-5 different programs, depending on what i want to do. much more fun and interesting that way :) cheers, /derek At 10:48 PM 10/8/2000 -0400, ClarionMusic@aol.com wrote:

go to this site www.mp3.com/manicdetroit and check out the tracks "thisisall" and "diminished spazm".. I did all of thisisall in frootyloops and all but the 303 part in diminished spazm it as well. These should show you how powerfull the software is... and I have been doing even crazier stuff which will be out on my next CD.. reductio ad absurdom, which is being sent out to labels now. Oh, and if there are any labels that want me to send them a copy.. mail me an address to send it to. nick www.manicdetroit.com www.8bitpeoples.com www.mp3.com/manicdetroit --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

so what is the general opinion of fruity loops? cheap, or good program? it gives me a kinda cheap feeling when using it..but i discover time and time again it's just so intuitive and easy to use. I usually use it as a sequencer, then export each wave into a multitracker. what do you people think? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
