Fruity Loops help

[Silas]

I need help with the Fruity Loops program. I know some you here use it. I cant make a song that goes over 12 seconds. If any of you know how to make a full length song, or can let me know where tutorials are that have full length songs, let me know.

thanks,

The program is not as tasty as it sounds is it. I think i remember having the same problem (It's been years since i've used it). But i'm pretty sure it would have something to do with bars.

I know you can extend it with the little thing up in the left corner but it never goes past 12 seconds of music. I know Hammertime is good with it, maybe he can help.

is it because they dont allow trial versions to go over 12 secs?
idk causei dont have the trial version
i went to the *store* and got it

[Silas]

I have the producer edition. I can save and all that stuff, I just cant go over 12 seconds. All the tutorials I try to find on it all cost money to download or view though.

[jerry]

so u have a full version? idk are u trying to save a beat to more than 12 secs? cause yea u prob have to make it longer otherwise it doesnt loop..actually i just got fl and i am havin the same prob as you...

I want to make a full length song, not a 12 second beat that repeats over and over again.

......with this program?
well then idk

sorry i am new i just got this today
but u should prob get audacity...u can put clips together almost like remix

If I recall (which I don't!) the 12 second thing is just one pattern... find something like the song editor or something, and then you actually choose the order of patterns, you can have tons of different ones and you map them out... that way you can map out a song of infinite length.

song editor?

[Cameron]

Yeah, I don't remember the exact name of the tool, but it lets you map out the order of pattern placement. It's basically how you define a song.

[jerry]

well i am too stupid to figure these out..so i am just usin audacity..but i willt ry to discover this editor so its easier for me...i am really liking this tool

[jerry]

ok u are talkin about the play list thing..but what i was tryin to do was to extend just the pattern...i see i have to place a main music thing on the timeline so that the pattern extends..good to know
