SEND CHANNELS FL STUDIO 12 HOW TO

If you have any questions at all about FL Studio (or think you might know some answers) then please do join our FL Studio Questions and Answers group on Facebook. Please do check out my other FL Studio related articles and tutorialsВ if you found this one useful or interesting. I use them all the time for reverb and delay especially but they can also be used for adding distortion without affecting the source audio or clever stuff like parallel compression.В Please do let me know how you got on with this tutorialВ in the comments below,В on my Facebook page or on Twitter and IвЂ™d love to hear of other ways of using send FX that you may have come up with. You should now have no problem setting up, routing and using send FX channels in FL Studio. Be careful you donвЂ™t cause a feedback loop as that could lead to some horrible noisesвЂ¦ IвЂ™ve not tried it myself and it may be that FL Studio wonвЂ™t let you do it. In this example I route the delay send FX channel to the reverb send FX channel to add reverb to the delay. You can change the volume and panning of the send FX track independently of the source as well as route it to other tracks if you desire. You will now have the source still on the source channel and the effect on the send FX channel. You can also do this by left-clicking on the send switch. To route it to the send FX channel simply select the source channel then right-click on the send switchВ below the send FX channel you wish to use and select route to thisВ track (do not route to this track onlyВ as you need the source to continue going through to the master track). In my example I have a pluck track which is totally clean. To make use of a send FX channel you need to route a signal to it. These additional effects do not need to be 100% wet as they are being used on the signal coming from your main effect. You can still add more effects to the signal after the main effect, for example some EQ and compression.

Once you have a channel with and effect on there which is only allowing the wet signal to come out, you have essentially set up a send FX channel. You will find that different effect plugins deal with the wet/dry balance in different ways so if itвЂ™s not obvious right away IвЂ™d recommend checking the relevant documentation. In the Fruity Delay 2 you can adjust only the dry volume. In the Fruity Reverb you can adjust them separately, so should turn down the dry and set the wet at 100%.

Every effect plugin should give you the option to adjust the levels or balance between the dry and wet signal.

In this example I set up two send FX channels one with Fruity Reverb 2 on it and another with Fruity Delay 2 on it. This is what defines it as a send FX channel so you need to ensure that you are only allowing the wet signal through whatever the main effect is on your channel. This is known as 100% wet and 0% dry, where the вЂwetвЂ™ signal is the effect and the вЂdryвЂ™ signal is the original source audio. The send FX channels are exactly like any other channel with the key difference being that the main effect on the channel does not allow any of the source signal through.
