flp (FL Studio project), it will save all your VSTs settings, so no need to worry about that. So that should be all you need, right? Well, not if you’ve used Edison or Slicex and want to save the loops within them.īy default, when you save your. These will backup the individual sounds within your project. Why setting up this Project -> Data folder is important is because it improves workflow.Īny audio recordings you do, if you use Slicex/Edison and drag and drop audio from within their editors, it saves that slice to this folder.īut when backing up, this is where things get a tricky for both the User Data Folder + your own custom folder.įL Studio has the options Zipped loop package and Project data files. This folder essentially takes precedence over the User Data Folder. Whenever you start a new project in FL Studio, take advantage of their Project -> Data folder (This is different from the User Data Folder discussed earlier – I know, it can get confusing, lol.) The process to backup in FL Studio comes later in this article, but it’s important I add this info here, too: So when you back up your files, you have to make sure that EVERYTHING is included that you need for that song at a later date. When creating your own custom folder, you’re taking things into your own hands, so to speak.
Note – I have created a course to make sure you create a proper music production folder to enjoy your career as a music producer. A step-by-step walk through is inside my music folder course.Assign each song’s Project Data Folder inside Settings -> Project.Create Sub-Folders: Albums, Beat Tapes, Sounds, Sound Design, Clients, etc.Create a main Music Production Folder to nest all things music.Here’s the process of creating your own custom music production folder: I find this the easiest way to stay organized, keep things minimal, and back-up. (VST3 plugins have to be installed in Windows’ Common Files folder – kind of annoying because everything can’t be all contained inside this single music folder.) I store all my sounds, VSTs, projects, and even any stuff I do with clients. My music production folder contains everything to do with my music. It’s important that you establish a Music Production Folder early on in your producing career. The reason I like a custom folder is it allows me to set up my folder how I like. That way, we could create a custom folder if we end up using one of these native FL Studio plugins to create own custom presets, which would be added after their default files. (As most producers use third-party plugins.)Īs an idea: Image-Line should use this User Data Folder as a child to their parent folders already within the FL Studio installation. I think I’d use this User Data Folder if it didn’t contain all of these extra files like FL Studio’s native VST presets. Here’s what the default folder structure looks like – you’ll spend most of your time in the FL Studio folder: (Covered in the Browser Extra Search Folders section.) This is where you can manage all of your music production projects etc, but if you have third-party sounds that you’ve purchased or downloaded over the years, you’ll have to include those manually.
