Hello

just installed fruity loops 7, got a question...

In FL 5 i was able to link my fx channels in the mixer track, so that i didn't need to copy all the fx's, cause it takes a lot of my cpu :)

Now in FL 7 this has changed, anyone knows how to link fx channels so that i don't need to copy all my fx's everytime?

Thanks!

That's what the "send"-channels are for... if I understand your question correctly.

Set up a mixer track with all your fx, this can a send track, but doesn't need to be. Now select the mixer track you want to route through these fx. If your fx track is a send track, you'll notice a dial at the bottom, just turn this one up to send the audio from track one to the send track. If it's not a sendtrack, you need to click somewhere around where that send button would be to make it a send track.

It's best to try this out with fl7 opened, because it'll be confusing otherwise (I wouldn't know what I've written anyway :) )

Hope it helps

my question isn't very clear i think, it's hard to explain :)

i give an example: i got a snare on fx 2 with some fx's on it....After that i put a hihat on fx 3, but i want to have the same fx's on my hihat as on my snare..In FL 5 i was able to choose : link fx 3 to fx 2, so that i didn't need to copy all the fx's, but this has changed in FL 7 so i have to copy every fx of my snare(fx 2) to my hihat (fx3)...Got it?lol

Anyway i thank you for your replies!Grtz

You can select the mixer track number each generator is send to. So you can actually send y our hi hats fx2 instead of placing them on fx3.

http://www.fruityloops.org/help/html/chansettings.htm

On the screenshot you see the box 'fx' in the channel settings window of a generator. The number there decides which mixer track the audio goes to.

In theory you can route all your audio through 1 mixer track if you like, you're in no way limited to 1 generator/track.

So if you want your snare and hihats to have the same fx, just route them both to the same mixer track

Kyran explained this correctly to you. FL 7 is even much better in routing efx channels than fl5, you just haven't figured it out yet :))

In FL5 it was on or off (the sending to other efx channels) n FL7 it's from 0 to 100% (the dial he mentioned)

Click on the efx channel you want to sen to another one, then you'll have to click on the arrow underneeth the efx channel you want to sen it tpo and turn the knob to the right.

this is one of the things that makes fl 6 and 7 brilliant: You can send the signal coming from the efxchannel on your snares (e.g. efx channel 5) for 30% to channel 2, for 10% to channel 6 etc. think of the possibilities! aren't you happy now? I was :)

It's very powerful, but gets confusing very fast if you don't label it all (which I tend to forget).
