Whatever mixer track you have FPC sent to will be considered the Output - starting point. The Output will send that pad to its own mixer track. That’s typically used for imitating the sound of a hi-hat opening and closing with the closed hi hat pad cutting off the open hi hat pad, which is what happens on a real drum kit. The Cut and Cut By options are useful for stopping a pad from playing while another pad is triggered. By clicking on the assigned MIDI Note, you’ll have the option to remap the pad to any note on your controller. Next, to those knobs are mute, solo and the option to scale the volume according to velocity, which helps any MIDI input sound and feel more natural as you’re performing with your controller. The three knobs on the main tool bar will edit the volume, panning and pitch of the selected pad. By selecting the pad, you can edit any of these options through the main tool bar settings. These presets will already have the drums labeled, colorized, mapped and spread through the velocity scale for you. You can load the kits through the presets menu. FPC comes with an assortment of kits with these type of sample recordings. This allows you to have a more realistic sounding performance by incorporating samples that were recorded with a range of drum hits on the same drum. The great thing about FPC is its ability to layer drum sounds and triggering each sample according to velocity. These presets can be accessed through the drop down menu next to the pad selector. It also has a handful of controller presets, which include FL Studio’s new Fire controller. It’s loaded with drum samples and MIDI loops that can instantly deliver the type of tracks you might be looking for. It contains two banks of 16 pads that can be mapped to any MIDI controller.
