Playlist

Until When our singer has WORKED WITH MAKING A drum pattern Voice 'real drum'

What is the pattern? If the Indonesian translate into meaningful patterns and we have made a drum pattern with the title "Pattern 1." The title of a pattern can be seen at the top of the 'channel window'.

The next step to create a song, we must incorporate the pattern into the area called Playlist. Playlist layout is described in the following figure:

Green: Shortcut show / hide playlist  

Red: Playlist
   
Playlist useful to unify each part that we have made in the form of pattern. We've created a pattern containing a drum pattern with the title "Pattern 1." We can make many kinds of pattern with different instruments. That is, there is no limit on how much the pattern that we make. For example, we can create a pattern 2, pattern 3 pattern 4 and so on.

Light Blue: Tools

Tools useful to draw a pattern, remove the pattern, cutting and various other uses.

Now let us enter "Pattern 1" in the Playlist. The trick, activate the "Pattern 1" in the playlist by clicking the "Pattern clip sources," that I put a piece of yellow in Figure 8. After-click drop down menu will appear with the name of the pattern that we have created. Because we only make a pattern, which appears in the drop down just the "Pattern 1."

Once we activate the "Pattern 1" let us draw on the Playlist in the "Track 1." How to mouse over the blue area in Figure 8, the mouse cursor will turn into a brush and click. Please follow up to be like the example shown in Figure 9.

To facilitate resistant click at the end of the playlist and drag to the right to draw it (right click to remove). Now try to press "Play" to play. (According to Figure 9, I draw four boxes, which means the pattern will repeat four times if we 'play')

If it is correct, you'll see an arrow running at the number at the top of the Playlist. There are no arrows walking on the Playlist? Meaning you have to change the 'Playback Mode' first. At the beginning we opened FL Studio 'playback' mode will automatically be set to 'Pattern mode' or 'Pat' which means playback intended to play a pattern only. As for the run Playlist we must change 'Pat Mode' to 'Song Mode.'

Setting to change into 'Song Mode' next to the 'play'seperti image below:

Select 'Song' and trying to 'play,' surely now you've seen the arrows walking on Playlist. We have succeeded in inserting a pattern / pattern into the Playlist. You can describe a pattern by an infinite length in the Playlist, which means you are free to make a song with any long duration.

Now what? We are now going to make a second drum pattern. In general, a track has more than one drum pattern, the reason is of course that the song does not sound monotone. Let's make a second drum pattern.

To make the pattern / second drum pattern please click on the 'plus' (+) next to the word 'Pattern 1' 
.

       
Shortly after you click the (+) will appear a form where we can type the name of the desired pattern. I will give the name "Drum 2" in this second pattern. You can give a name at will. After OK, press 'Enter'.

If it is correct, 'step sequencer' that had been occupied by 'Pattern 1' will return empty. Where did 'Pattern 1'? Quiet, 'Pattern 1' you just hide because we have opened 'Pattern 2'. Please fill in the 'step sequencer' as the steps described in the explanation Channel Window & Step Sequencer. Below is a picture of the pattern of "Drum 2" made in me, please follow.
  

 
Note:

         When you want to create a new pattern do not forget to return the "Song mode" to "Pat Mode" so that we can listen to the game that we will create in this new pattern, if not changed we only hear the game Playlist.

         To re-display the "pattern 1" if we want to edit in next time, I click the "name pattern" (a light green color on Gambar11) so it will show a drop down menu that displays a list of pattern we have made. Inside the menu, we can also change the name / rename pattern that has been made.

Once finished, let us enter "Drum 2" into the "Playlist." Just a reminder, do not forget to replace the 'Pattern clip sources' into the name pattern that is only now we want to draw into the Playlist, in this case is a pattern named "Drum 2" , If so, the picture will look like the following.

In the My Playlist adds four boxes pattern "Drum 2" next to "Pattern 1." If it had been drawing as it tried to listen to the result by playing the playlist. If it is correct we will hear the change in the pattern of "Pattern 1" to "Drum 2" according to what we are describing.

To better understand how the Playlist try to draw like the example below:

If you play according Figure 14 above, you'll hear the sound of drums are piled (Voice Drum "Pattern 1" to "Drum 2"). With Figure 14, I wanted to show that we are free to put the pattern-pattern that has been made up to be a song that really we expected.
On the left side playlist, you'll see a "Track", uses only as identity / marker pattern what we have filled in the "Track" is. Additionally, it will help to make the project a song we become more neat and easily identifiable.
My suggestion, use the "Track" as a separator of each pattern drum or other instrument pattern. Each "track" can we rename it in accordance with the existing instruments in line "track" is, how to right click on the "track" that you want to rename, and will show up option and select "rename / color".
Up here the tutorial on using Playlist. Do not go anywhere before yes, I want to discuss the conclusion of all that we learn this time the next session.
