i hope i didnt ask this before but if i did this time i will pay attention because i need to do this now...
the pattern i'm making in fruity requires that i place snare hits a bit off the beat. fruity wont let me. will it?

Oct 22, 2003 08:37 am yeah, actually...now ive figured out playlists, i got a question about bending notes and stuff...
dont tell me now though, cos ill forget...
Oct 22, 2003 08:43 am i'm not so sure about bending notes on the wav sampler, but alot of VST and DX synths offer a "portamento" or "glide" feature built in that do great bends and jump over hoops and junk. but i won't tell you about that now, cause you might forget

Oct 22, 2003 04:28 pm Frooty question: how do you change tempo in the middle of a song?

Oct 22, 2003 04:46 pm I believe Fuity has a tempo map, you just open it and set a new tempo and the time you need it to change.
Oct 22, 2003 06:28 pm where is it

Oct 22, 2003 07:13 pm I dont have fruity installed at the moment, but I believe you can access it from the piano roll view. But again I am not sure.
Oct 23, 2003 01:19 am there's a couple ways; right click on the tempo thing and choose "Edit Events" - you can draw in curves here like you can for any fruity parameter
i recommend this way instead: set you pattern to whice ever blank pattern you decided to make your "Main Automation" track and set the playback to "song mode", click the Record button so it lights up, now press play and just tweak the tempo at the appropriate points. make sure you turn off the Record button when you're done
now, i'd like to see Reason do THAT!
Oct 23, 2003 01:32 am using what to tweak it? the *power of my miiinnndd*???

Oct 23, 2003 01:39 am grab it with your mouse, forty! click and drag the display up and down, hold Ctrl down for a more delicate tweak. or just click the little up/down buttons

Oct 23, 2003 02:51 am Do we need to write an article on proper point and click methods?
Oct 23, 2003 06:50 pm "now press play and just tweak the tempo at the appropriate points"
i guess i need to look at it/have it in front of me. i dont understand where the tempo control is. what display? i think you're saying to drag the 'automation line' or whatever.
no one liked my wonderful joke. that's high comedy.

Oct 23, 2003 07:04 pm i always find it helpful to actually make 5-minute wav files (low-quality) of whatever click at whatever tempo. it's very easy to do with acid. you set up the click track instruments you want, save the file, and adjust the tempo whenever you need a new click track. this way, you can edit where, how loud, and if you want to fade the click track. it works especially well for songs that change tempo. you can put the click wherever the song's tempo changes, and tell them that they will get 4 clicks if they have a chance to hold it. you can also arrange the click tracks so that you can do the 1-3 BPM increase for energy.
Oct 23, 2003 09:52 pm hey good idea with the +1-3 for energy. thats a tactic i forgot all about.

Oct 23, 2003 11:31 pm not surprisingly, i learned it here.
Jun 16, 2004 10:47 pm Hey guys I'm a newb here. Great site BTW.
I can't get FL to change the tempo back and forth. I've been trying to get the drums to drop from 115bpm, to 105, and then back to 115, two times in the song. I can get it to change once, but can't get it to jump back up to the original tempo.
I've tried through Event editor, as well as the recording method mentioned here.
I've been playing with it for 3 freakin' days! plz help.
thx DT
Jun 18, 2004 07:16 pm Bump! Anybody know? This project is kinda at a stand-still until I can figure this out...
Any help greatly appreciated.
Jun 18, 2004 07:24 pm The last time I played with FL (admitedly a long time ago) it's biggest drawback was time signature and tempo changes...as far as I know thats still the case.

Jun 19, 2004 01:33 am I don't use Fruity, but a different sequencer. But I always render whatever I've sequenced to wav so I can do some editing in my multitracker. If you were to do this, you could render the part you want at tempo(1) then change the tempo in fruity, and render at tempo(2), and then merge the two in your wav editor or multitracker (assuming you have those).
I guess it's not the easiest process, but it is a work around.

Jun 19, 2004 12:16 pm ive got the software to slow down a sample of the drums to the desired bpm if this helps - though obviously that depends what youre doing...
Jun 19, 2004 08:16 pm Thx for the help guys. It's just a drum track for a rock song. A buddy and I are trying to start a band and we're putting songs down, but don't yet have a drummer. So I've been making drum tracks with FL to play to. I might just do what coolo suggested. I'll render each peice separatly in FL, then piece them back together in Cakewalk.
