Wow, FL Studio really does provide! I've seen Patcher for more than a decade and never bothered to learn what it does. This is amazing! The possibilities, man! 🚒

Hi guys, does anyone know if its possible to MIDI map changing presets to VST in FL studio? For 3d party plugins, or even for the default one - Sytrus? Thank you in advance!

[dmitryklimov]

Finally, found the clue, in your video. Thanks!

[misli_kraba]

Awesome! That's what I was searching for

[TurnThisOneUpJ]

Thanks, this was a huge help! Also, that ctr + click tip is a game changer!

What the patcher can do in about 6-7 clicks and activations with formulas and controllers you can do other software with a single mapping click. I still love fl studio so when im tryint o get weird with my EF chains, I use Freestyle from New Sonic Arts. Its pretty much patcher without the convoluted workflow. Just plug and play with the same interface as patcher and the control surface is macros. Patcher could be amazing but theres a reason not many people are using it but its the best for chaining FX and routing the signal versus making a whole plugin. Just takes so long to do some very simple wiring. I think fl studio is th eonly DAW that doesnt respect the double click:)

Thank you as always composing gloves!!! I think with this feature you could basically program a midi trigger sidechain thingy.

[Andonchoto]

Is it possible..to hace something act as a note on off event creator and have it mapped on lets say lfo so it generates music by itself..with no midi device or keyboard pressing by myself??

[musicmike]

Is there a way I can use this to drop the pitch of a note at then end no matter what length it is?

I like the "BRAAMS" folder in your browser. Hans Zimmer probably has a few... dozen... hard drives of BRAAMS lying around his basement.

Ok. New to patcher. Came across your video trying to find a solution for a control surface I'm trying to create for an old software synth I love. There's no vst for the synth and its no longer supported but will run no worries using midiloop. Linking to knobs effects with cc has been fine. Some of the effects, patterns etc are triggered however by keyboard notes on the keyboard. I simply want to create a button on surface that will trigger the keyboard note that will turn on or turn off that pattern or effect. Seems similar to what your doing. Am I on the write track here. Do I need to use a plugin like envelope controller or similar, or is there a simpler way. Sorry to trouble you.

[Philbrazil]

Anyone else just get mind blown with the Alt click on the channel rack to make plugins stay? lol

[mkson]

Oh man...no hat, and a ....white???, tee...what’s next, dying your beard black? 😆😎🤓. Super informative video as always. Thanks man. Keep up the great work

[Ynex]

Clever :o Is it possible to do it with audio files as well?

[stoner]

intresting but better buy midi controller

Hey composing gloves, you seem like a good person, I have been following you for a long while. I made a huge pack of VST emulations with Patcher, but didnt finish it. So I am probably not going to do anything of all these hours spent patching and designing interfaces. And so I am totally giving you freedom to use and abuse my work if you think you can get some view out of it. I made a subject about it on IL forums, it's called "A big bunch of Patcher".
