Saturday: Tip of the weekend: FL Studio

Hey everybody! Or uhmm hello there somebody? since I don't really have followers so you are probably reading this because: A, you follow my link on soundcloud or B, you were bored to death and couldn't type, qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm (keys of your keyboard on your laptop, computer). You should type it on google. You will find a nice definition. Anywayas I'm sidetracking.

Tip OF the Weekend.

I will be posting a tip or trick every Saturday.

Did you ever experienced a clicking sound when you tried to put a drum pattern in fl studio's drum sequencer? And did it only worked when you used the keyboard?
How do you fix this?

1) Left click on your drum sample when it is loaded in your drum sequencer, you be on the tab SMP (be sure that loop points is off otherwise the sample will loop and your boxes will blow up and scream).
2) Next step is to click on the tab INS. Right click on the keyboard at the bottom, click on C5. And you are good to go!

3) Turn up your kick and do a fistpump...

AudioJungle!

YES! I finally made an account and uploaded my first track on audiojungle! It first didn't passed the reviewing because my volume of my beat was so low (you needed a hearing aid to hear it). But I fixed it and now my first (exclusive track) is on audiojungle. I will be posting different music on my audiojungle and soundcloud and visa versa.

Introduction

Hey there! Thank you for visiting my blog. My alias name is ThePresent, my real name is Joris Westerveld (to simplify things, just call me george). I named myself ThePresent because my parents told me when I was little that my second and third name (Jun Li) means a present... But I just recently found out that Jun Li doesn't mean a present. So... Uhm... anyways the only reason I can think of why I called myself the Present is because it sounds awesome? Well atleast I tried to clarify why my alias is my alias...
I love making music and I started about 6 years ago with fl studio. I still use this fruity DAW. I also study psychology in Utrecht and I love my girlfriend (oh so cliché) but it is true...
I will be posting stories, thoughts and ofcourse music of myself and show you how I make music.

Btw if you see any typo's or grammar mistakes it is probably due to the fact that english isn't my mother language. Make my day and try to find them all :)
