FL Studio Question

[Debutante]

What is the most convenint way to use latency compensation plugins in FL. How do you route the for plugins like SIR?

[Sleepgolfer]

if I put SIR on a channel, i put the AnalogX sampleslide plugin on a send channel. then I put fruity send on every channel (except the SIR channel, of course) that it's in use and kill the dry signal and select the send channel which I put sampleslide on...now type the latency in sampeslide which you can read in the help section of SIR (it's different for older versions of SIR)... I hope I was clear...

Well, there´s a number of plugs for this purpose out there, voxengo has some freebies, however these doesn´t always meet the demands in terms of timedelay needed. (Especially for heavy FFT plugins that requires more than a 1024 samples delay...)
I made a little tutorial (solely using fx bundled with FL) for you that you can find here: http://hotel.karlskrona.net/b0364/stuff ... sation.flp
With this patch you can delay the signal drastically and it shows how to patch with other delay compensation plugs in FL.
Another tip, due to the awkward fact that FL only has 4 sends, is to use the ingenious plugin Senderella, that gives any vst host as many sends as you want. Grab it here:

Hope this will help, cheers.../J

...thanks for the help guys! And that Senderella's a gem.

I usually just put a voxengo sample delay on an empty mixer track, say FX1. Then I just route all the channels that aren't being processed by SIR to FX1 before going out to the master channel.

Thanks for the info people...
