How come when I go to the mixer, the vst instruments I have don't show up in the mixer? I managed (unfortunately having to use this step sequencer thing) to finally get some normal midi sequence clips on my timeline. Why does FL either paste copies of or delete midi clips on the timeline/arrangement page when I click left or right mouse buttons? This is HIGHLY annoying, no?Ĥ. Do I have to use this 'step sequencer' thing to work with any MIDI in FL Studio? I don't program my own beats and don't think of my midi data in this 'pattern' sense that FL Studio seems to stress? Can I just draw a blank field on a midi track and either play or sequence in the piano roll, simply and fast, like every other DAW?ģ. How do I just arm a midi/virtual instrument track for recording and just record or draw in the piano roll? The tracks don't tell me anything about them? They're just numbered?Ģ. Can someone please answer a few questions?ġ. Anyway, I'd like to also use FL Studio, but my frustration levels and temper with it are getting very high again. I personally think that award would have to go to Studio One, my main DAW. Perhaps it's my Aspergers, but I can't for the life of me understand why FL is always touted as 'the easiest' to use DAW. I can use all the other well known DAWS with ease, but I can't seem to understand the FL Studio paradigm. However, I've always abandoned it because I find it very unintuitive, VERY different from every other DAW and therefore, exceedingly difficult to wrap my head around. I've had FL Studio for quite some time, as there is a lot that I've always liked about it.
