Learning the basics of FL Studio 12/20 by creating a track from scratch.

Tired of learning what all the knobs do with zero idea of how they work in context of making a track?  Learned everything about the program but have zero idea of how to go about the creative process?

This is the course designed to show you how to make a track, in under an hour, by forcing you to compose a track step by step under my instruction.

  • In this course, I will teach you all the basic tools within FL Studio by means of a follow-along video tutorial series:  From how to make drum patterns, to telling the computer what melodies to play, to throwing effects on certain elements, and the like.

  • This course also comes with my 1-Page FL Studio Quickstart Guide: A short .pdf curating the best resources to learn the basics of music theory that I wish I had starting out.
