Finding & Using Samples + Presets & Samples Download7:08
Finding and using samples is a big part of music production in the modern age. Many people still use original and authentic instruments in their productions however the majority of "bedroom producers" and big producers alike will go to samples for the sake of efficiency. We will learn how to find them and then import then to your projects.

Dubstep Breakdown [Long Video]42:48
Dubstep just like drum and bass is one of my more well known genres to produce. If you are interested in the structure of Dubstep tracks and elements involved, check this one out! I will go over my previously created projects in detail. The focus will be on melodic styles as what you learn can be applied to many other types of music.

Chilled EDM Breakdown18:32

Music Promotion2:12
Promoting your music can be very difficult especially if you are not paying anybody for it. I will be sharing my personal ways of promoting my music that have worked and will also work for you. This industry is very secretive and deceptive sometimes so finding the best and honest methods can save you time and money.
Networking is a huge part of succeeding as an artist, you want to be connecting with other artists / producers and even record label owners or promotion network owners as this can give you a boost in your streams / views.

Description

Have you wanted to get better at creating music and not known where to start? I aim to focus on beginner and intermediate levels in this course for FL Studio 20 & 21.

In this course you will have a full guide on using FL Studio. Starting with the basics such as getting around the interface, learning keyboard shortcuts, tips & tricks to boost your creativity / workflow and all the way to creating your first track! I will go over my previously created and successful tracks in detail to give you an idea of what is required to make it.

I have been creating music with FL Studio for the last 8 years and release music under the alias MGR 7TH. Over these years I have gained knowledge through many sources such as YouTube producers, SoundCloud productions, Facebook groups etc. but most importantly, trial and error with a lot of rejection along the way from peers and Record Labels. I will show you ways to promote your music with links to some sources I like to use too.

The main genres covered in this course are Melodic Dubstep, Future Bass, Drum & Bass and General EDM.

Gain access to all these royalty free benefits:

A FREE FLP of a track I released with Bass Rebels (I use Sylenth1 in the FLP & it is for educational purposes ONLY)
24 Sylenth1 Presets
37 Vocal FX
77 Sound FX

On top of this you can find FREE FLPs on my YouTube channel of projects I have previously released or ones that I felt weren't quite good enough!
