    Hey,

    I got Fruity Loops 4 recently and would like to learn how to use it properly. I've tried googling for them but I only get tutorials for specific plugins etc... So does anyone know of any beginner tutorial sites ?

    I dont have any sites to give but it's pretty easy to use the best way is to mess around with it yourself try different things nd b4 u know it u'll be looping away.

    Get hold of acid aswell then u can arrange ur loops.

    I have Acid 3 pro but haven't even looked at it.

    I know the best way to learn is to mess around but it would be nice to know how to structure a song properly aswell.

    Listen to some music and listen to how its done.
    It's simple enough.
    Four is the magic number.

    Read the manual that comes with it for a start. I't's pretty big but you don't need to read it indepth. Your not going to learn any of these programs overnight but fruity loops is one of the easiest and most fun.

    Within a couple of hours you should be making some decent sounding stuff but the learning curve is slow so gradually your tunes will get better and better as your learn how to use all the plugins and fx.

    Good luck and have fun.

    Also read the FAQ forum on the FL website

    Anything that isn't there can be found out by asking on the looptalk forum

    Also download songs from the song exchange forum, break them down and deconstruct them

    www.dogsonacid.com has the best production forum on the net imo.... there are a load of sticky threads with full step by step tutorials for a variety of different programs. the production forum is called the grid, its mainly geard towards drum and bass production but anything you read will certainly be applicable to whatever genre you want.
