About this course

This course teaches FL Studio, also known as Fruity Loops, for music production and arranging tracks and songs from scratch. You start by downloading the program and getting to know its interface, then the terms you need before music production, and a walkthrough of the Playlist, Channel Rack, Mixer, VST types, and automation. Next you learn sound effects such as equalizer, reverb, delay, distortion, and compressor, and get to know music theory and scales. Then you move to practice: you make a beat from scratch and learn mixing, mastering, exporting the music file in high quality, and sampling. The course also covers arranging rap, trap, and mahraganat, recording vocals inside the program, and podcast sound engineering, with the workbook, tools, and sounds to download. It suits anyone who loves music and wants to enter music production, and it needs no previous experience. By the end, you will be able to produce a complete song yourself, from the beat to the mix, the master, and the export.

Expected outcomes

Ability to produce professional music tracks using FL Studio.
Create rhythms and musical arrangements for various styles.
