Hey, I've been usin fruityloops for a while now - have jsut acquired version 6. I have a copy of ACId that someone advised me to use - I need help when rendering WAV files on FL and then sendin them to ACID. I have tried lookin on web for help and just dont get it :confused: , can somebody please help me or at least tell me where the best place to look on the web is for using FL6 and ACID together.

When I use fruity - I only lay out a single channel at a time in the mapper. I render that as a .wav .
Make sure you tick "Cut remainder" or you will have an extra bit on your file and it will not loop properly.
Save all your fruity wavs to a folder called samples or something.
In Acid - use the explorer to navigate to your save folder and just double click the bit you want to use to add it to the main sequencer window.
Acid automatically puts files to the correct tempo. If it sounds twice as fast or slow as it should - right click and properties -then click "stretch" and double / half the number of beats of the sample length. (You probably know these things - but just in case...)
I have the day off work tomorrow (Wednesday 25th Jan) so I'll have MSN messenger open. Get me on there at chromium05@hotmail.com and I'll run through it

seriously, neither of you have seen the damn button in the renderer? "ACIDize"
render to whatever and see what i mean, it's in the first screen when you export.

Cheers people!
Chro,
I'll have a play about with it - still a bit confused with ACID - not really had a proper go.
DJ Phat- I had a look - cant see it. Will have a nother look later.
Just got FL6 last night so gotta few things to check out.

Ha ha...erm - No! Can't remember seeing it. But if I had I wouldn't know what it'd do so I'd probably still do it the way I know.
I'll have to try it now.

I have had some really good help from the people on here and will carry on asking people on here for advice but just wondered if anyone knew any other site/forum for FL that was good for this sort of thing,
