Getting FL Studio sometime in the next month
Posted on: 28.11.2011 by Kesha Pietrak
Any good tutorials or anything out there? Im already somewhat familiar with the software because I have a friend that used it for a time and know the basics but Id like to start looking into how to do more advanced things before I get it

You'll learn the ins and outs of sound-design a lot quicker if you go this route, and the skills will eventually be transferrable to any VST you want (Though each vst has its own learning curve and features, most are shared).
thanks, I was planning on sticking with the VSTs it came with for a while anyways until i got the hang of everything.

I started with FL and listening to this guys tutorials before moving on to Ableton. Although his tutorials are heavy on FL Specific technique, the principles are still good in any DAW- especially his later videos which talk about the importance of using reversed samples and very subtle variations to truly make your song lively.

This guy has amazing videos and takes you from the absolute basics to getting familiar with the DAW- and you can buy an entire couple DVDs full of useful tutorials for cheap if you follow his links.

I'd suggest that + The Dance Music Manual by Rick Snoman, which will give you a primer on sound design, effects, theory, and an overview of genres which are applicable to any DAW.

fl studio is great (been using it for 7 years)
not to sound ridiculous, but always remember that you are the very best resource you could have
experiment: use the riff machine, grossbeat, waveshaper plugin, sytrus, toxic biohazard, poizone, etc.
fl studio comes with some project files so check those out in order to get used to fl studio
and you might find projects of whatever you listen to, fl tudio is quite popular and many people release fl studio projects for fun.
