Specifically for beginners or new FL Studio users, you can now take an ultimate shortcut in learning the critical music-making basics first. However, if this is a bit overwhelming and you don’t know where to start, don’t worry. You can learn different things from each track. Keep in mind, each demo song has its own arrangement.

This is immensely powerful to learn how to make sounds, how to make buildups, how to mix, just how to do anything. After it’s loaded, you can browse through all the instruments, effects, settings and arrangements. To open a demo song, right-click on a title and click “Open”. There, you will find a list of different artists and titles. In the browser, click “Demo projects” and then click “Demo songs”. To access FL Studio demo songs, click “View” in the menu and then click “Browser”. This way, we can “steal” all their tricks and strategies and incorporate these ideas in our own songs. Demo songs are songs made by artists and included in FL Studio for us to see and modify. Instead of learning from templates, you can also use FL Studio’s powerful demo songs. It covers all the essential basics of synthesis, which you need to become an outstanding producer. That’s why, if you want to make your own sounds, get the Sound Design for Beginners guide by clicking this link. However, because anyone can access them, most templates are not that original for using in a serious song. They’re perfect to quickly express your ideas in FL Studio, but also to learn from. Templates are great to have a particular starting point for your FL Studio project. If you wish to use a different one, you can always select a new template to start with a different arrangement of plugins and settings. But there are also very minimalistic templates, only providing a few mixer effects, or even the option of starting with an entirely empty project.

This way, there are templates that contain perfectly organized instruments and mixer effects that are “pre set” to work together.

To access FL Studio templates, click “File” in the menu, select “New from template” and click one of the templates you wish to use.Īs you may notice, there’s a wide variety of different templates.

A template gives you a certain arrangement of instruments and/or effects, including presets, to start at a certain point. On the other hand, templates generally serve a larger purpose. Thereby, presets are usually related to already defined settings on instruments, effects or mixer tracks. They allow you to instantly start with a partly designed project. Templates or presets will give you premade tools and settings, included in the FL Studio application. In this lesson, you will learn how to access free FL Studio presets or templates.
