At least he doesn't have that eyball thing anymore. hehe.

BenjiC - when you click on a mixer channel, there is a little black rectangle at the top of the fx section, that is your channel's input, then at the bottom of the fx stack there is another black rectangle that is the channel's output. So send whatever you want to fx to say channel 10, set the output to saphire out 1(or stereo or whatevers) then from the saffire out 1, run that into the zoom, then out from the zoom run into saffire 2, then on channel 11 set the channel's input to saphire 2. Now you have a send set up, you will hear the uneffected sound as channel 10 internally goes out to your master, and you will hear the fx as the fx comes back on 11 and goes internally to your master.

Because of delay caused by asio and the zoom's internal processing, you will probably hear a phased kind of signal. You can compensate for this delay but it gets elaborate. My recommendation would be to just use this as an insert effect. You can do this by turning off channel 10's internal output to master. You'll just hear the effected signal. This will probably be 10 - 20 ms later than the rest of your audio. Again you can compensate for this delay, but it gets a little gnarly.

kind of off topic, but ive always wondered, all of these studios that dont have a giaint mixer, but a smaller one , and they have alot of outboard effects, is their mixer basically just a giant saffire, with ins and outs? ive always wondered how thoes big studios are wired up

Kind of hard to say ^ really depends on what they're doing, mixing, tracking, whatevers. But the idea is pretty universal, if you have sound in the box, you go out, through whatever hardware chain, and back in. That part is straightforward, the timing issues involved can be complex.

Personally, I very rarely come out for fx, and if I do, I more often than not go into a sampler, then through fx back into the box. My outboard fx and processing is usually just used for sounds coming into the box.

And ps, benjic - good luck deciphering my post up there, holy cow, is that even in english? Late night last night, and I responded before coffee. My bad.

Haha I followed it alright actually cheers for the heads up on delay issues as well its something Id not even considered.
For anyone thats interested wub gave me a decent link as well

I'm studying to be an entomologist, so it's insects all the way baby!

Was hoping you were studying to be a dubologist...

A friend of mine studied fine arts and did her 4th year project on beetles.
She made 10x scale scarabs, etc. out of copper
Awesome stuff.

Yes. Rewire 2.0 link FL right into Albeton.

Hi guys!

I've a big problem with syncing and automating Masive with my lovely FL Studio.

Something wierd happens when I'm trying to modulate the automation clip, cuz rate/cutoff knobs just goes crazy and, tbh, it's sounds like s***

Any ideas why did it happen?

Greets.

anyone have this problem in version 10? version 9 works fine but 10 crackles like fuck.

what should i have my buffer level at? does it depend on my pc spec an all that?

The high CPU could be directly from the sound card. If you get a proper sound card you will notice stress taken off your CPU.

Buffer length should be as low as possible without creating underruns. Just play a tune and see how low you can go without the underrun count going crazy, then raise it a bit extra. I can lower the buffer to 2ms sometimes, but this will cause more unneeded stress on the CPU, so 12-20ms is a good balance.

Also, use ASIO either from your sound card, or ASIO4ALL. I think ASIO4ALL installs with FL, or can be downloaded: www.asio4all.com

cheers man...i just dont get why the exact same tune was completely fine, no matter how many VSTs or samples i had going at once and now on version ten, its struggling with just a vocal and percussion, nothing else


also, if your on windows 7, you know how things go green in the taskbar when theyre loading something? or when your downloading and all that,

the whole fruity loops icon in the taskbar is fully green and everythings loaded...weird


and i think im using the asio drivers, how can i check?

just switched to the asio drivers meet, seems all good so far, cheers

Sorry I still run XP haha. Sounds like it might be some kind of resource meter, I'm not sure.
Hopefully the ASIO fixes it, but I remember sometimes there was CPU load issues in new versions of FL. Is it 10.0? Might be some 10.1 etc bugfixes and patches coming soon, I dunno. Last one I used was 9 I think. You might want to check their forum to see if anyone else is talking about CPU differences.
