1. create your wobble bassline.
2. export it as a wav
3. re-open fl studio... or just open up an audio clip (channels > add one > audio clip)
4. open up the wav file.
5. drag the wav file onto the playlist editor.
6. zoom all the way in.
7. click on the slice option and chop off the first part of the wobble which is out of sync (im guessing itl only be half a wobble)
8. render the bassline again as a wav.

and that should be all
was gonna make a tutorial but i use ableton. i doubt it would make sense to atom. but this ^ is pretty much spot on.

yeah, and it would be extremely confusing trying to transfer the process in ableton over to fruity loops when he doesn't know fruity

best get reading your manuals, atom. you've got a long, long road ahead of you...

but in all seriousness dude... if youre wanting to take producing seriously, start at the bottom.... its like how youd treat your ladies (or gents), dont go straight in for the kill, play around abit.. learn, gain experience.
LISTEN to what people tell you!...
also, just because others chop up there bassline, if this DOESNT work for you, or you cant get your head around it, dont do it. This is there methods of producing, it doesnt apply to all

haha exactly why i hated florida. that humidity is too much. it's nice if you're on the beach but honestly that weather isn't suitable for anything other than lizards.

i guess jacksonvilles not quite as hot as brevard county tho

im pretty sure you can download a demo of kontakt but you're gonna have to pay a penny if you want the full thing. best to download a free synth and learn how to use it: then you can apply the kontakt tutorial to your synth of choice.

kontakt is a sampler
shortcircuit is the free equivalent

So if i use shortcircuit , i pick a synth
& this allows me to mess with the sound?

getting a shit load of vst wont get u nowhere. Learn the difference between a synth and sampler. Learn the basics and practise with your daw's natives ones.
