Lets you do smooth crescendos and decrescendo's, etc. This is expression, which controls velocity and timbre on crossfade (dxf) instrument patches. This can be a volume level, stereo balance, cutoff frequencies, almost anything that has a knob or slider or can be changed using the FL Studio GUI.
The first step to making your very own automation is to pick a parameter that you automate. Name it Mod wheel or expression or whatever you want, set the CC value to 11. As you can see, as the song plays, the volume level will go from 0 to 80 (FL’s default volume level). Right click the a knob on the MIDI out channel any notes you write on the midi out now will control the instrument in slot 1 of ewqlso (this is how you can utilize multiple instruments from a single instance of ewql) Go to the settings button and assign MIDI IN to port 1 Load an instrument sample into the first slot in ewqlso
Is there something like that in FL Studio and how do I use it? Do I need an external something or other for it or is it something I can use like the Automation clip?įor the EW orchestra stuff, you need to link a midi out to the plugin, then assign the CC expression to the midi controller to automate it. As I research how to improve my orchestration and trying to make things sound more realistic, I keep hearing about an Expression Controller and CC #s.
