FL Studio 20 Getting Started Manual

4. Basic Piano Roll Editing

Piano roll Snap -

You may find the note snaps to a place you didn't want it to go. If so,

change the Snap setting on the toolbar

. Sometimes you just can't get the note length to

snap where you want no matter what you do. In this case, hold the ALT

key to override

snap and drag the note.

Draw mode -

Click on the note area, where you want it to start then release. Next grab

the middle of the note and drag it up/down. If the project is not playing, you should hear

the note you are entering as you drag it around. The length of the note will match the

length of the last note you placed or clicked. To change the length, grab the right-hand

side of the green bar and drag it. Right-click to delete notes. Modifier keys: (Shift

) add

in stretch mode. (Ctrl) to make a selection. (Alt) to add in pencil mode w

ith snap set to

'none'.

Delete - Click or Click-and-drag to delete notes. Right-click and hold

on the background

to open the slice tool (F10 > General settings > Click and hold functions on).

Modifier

keys: Hold (Ctrl) to make a selection, then press (Delete) Undoing Changes.

Like the

Event Editor, there is a limited undo available from the

Edit Menu

or by pressing

Ctrl

Using Loop

Points

Red lines are loop start/end points. You can set or edit them

in Edison (right-click the waveform and choose ‘Edit’)

Man, this thing

just keeps

getting' better!
