you can organize your plug-ins however you like in the browser. do this by adding a new channel, choosing more, then instead of ticking the check mark (so they are thrown in a big mess with the fl generators -- not fun since this list is sorted alphabetically so hard to see host specific and your external plugs as groups) just double click the one you want to insert it. now that you have inserted it, save the channel state to a folder of your choice on disk. add that folder to your files settings. repeat until you have added all your favorite plug-ins.
do the same for effects, except use the effects preset channel state file menu (the little pop down arrow menu in the effect slot).
now that you have your stuff sorted you can drag/drop right into the step seq to insert them in your project. if you drag under onto the blank area of step seq it will add a new channel. if you drag onto a current channel generator button in the stepseq it will replace it.
the best part: channel states contain snapshots of everything you setup in your plugin so they are instantly recalled. think of the power here for a second. you can create entire favorite systems for your presets for each instrument in a folder; say wusikstation and then organize however the hell you want. the channel state when dragged onto the stepseq will recall all the settings. it's much easier than using the fiddly file menu in the plugin wrapper imo too.
did you know that you can drag and drop FXB and FXP presets right onto the freaking wrapper header? that's so hot! you can drag/drop banks, individual presets, channel states, midi files, wave files, it's amazing.
flstudio browser is freaking awesome for productivity. think of how much time you can save with that alone. the great part of it is it uses your windows disk management to move/rename/store the files inside so you can organize to your hearts content without any need for kore, etc.
the amount of drag and drop support in fl is awesome. you can drag right to the sampler waves.
did you know that you can use 3xOsc and a custom waveform at once? i didn't. add a 3xOsc then simply press the ? button (which is custom wave) then drag from browser onto the sampler waveform window a wave file.. there now your 3xOsc is using your custom waveform.
this may be basic but fl has so many little things like this that i forget about/didn't know about.
i don't need phrazor or kore, this with ext and saving ext channel states with my chains loaded is going to save me tons of time. you can drag stacks of effects this way right into one single effects slot in fl (drag/drop the effects channel state to the slot itself as a target).
so damned helpful/smooth/fast to use. i always hid the browser and did everything the old fashioned way except when i was looking to load stuff into the sampler channels not knowing i was missing out on such rapid workflow goodness.
i'm gonna do some footwork if no one has already and compile a list of drag and drop functionality so that i can take advantage of this massive speed increase in my workflow as much as possible. it's too cool
ok so if you knew this already, dont flame me
