Hey Adrian,
Thanks! These are good questions and when you’re new to FL Studio, it can be overwhelming to figure everything out. That’s why I’ve written the FL Studio Beginner’s Guide. It’s the best place to start when you’re just starting out. So, make sure to check it out. As we speak, I’m currently also working on a new FL Studio book for beginners. It will probably be out soon.
Of course, I’m not gonna leave you hanging. If you want to add effects, make sure to route your instrument to the Mixer first.
