Get Started With FL Studio: The Beginner's Guide
Get Started With FL Studio: The Beginner's Guide
Thank you for checking out this video!
Everyone has to start somewhere and music production is no different. Whether you want to make it to the bigtime as the next music star or just want a productive way to spend some free time, this FL 20 beginners tutorial will help you getting started with FL and the basics of the software.
In this video I cover the basics via a Zoom chat with my good friend Mat Lock who is new to FL having previously worked with Logic. The bonus of doing things this way is that Mat will ask the basic questions that a new user might ask, but things that advanced users like myself may forget to mention.

*BIOGRAPHY*
Dean Zone is now a firmly established part of the Global Hard Dance scene. After more than ten years of relentless shows all over the UK and Europe and an intense studio schedule that has seen over 20 releases, Dean Zone has risen to be one of the leading lights in the Hard Trance world.
In a career which started in front of a packed dance floor at the legendary Turnmills in 2005 to more recently dropping bombs in some of the biggest clubs all over the country on a regular basis, Dean Zone has earned the respect of clubbers, producers, promoters and fellow DJs along the way with his boundless enthusiasm and exceptional talent for Hard Trance. With appearances at many of the leading events the UK has to offer including Frantic, Tasty, Riot!, Raindance, Planet Angel, Hard Dance Ibiza & Hindsight and not to mention his own award winning parties Magnetix and Rebellion, Dean Zone has shared the stage with every major Hard Dance DJ the UK and Europe has to offer.
Past production work has resulted in some massive releases that have garnered huge support from other artists. Some of the labels which have featured Dean Zone's work include Hyper Reality Records, Bionic Digital, Digitally Infected, Traffic, Compulzion, Gearbox, Hindsight, Terminal Trax, Metamorph, High Fish Digital and Error 303 to name a few. Then there is his very own label, Zone Traxx, which since it's inception in 2011 has topped the charts with tracks from some of the biggest names in Hard Trance including Renegade System, DJ Husband, Audio Damage, DJ W & Nutty T.
The list of scene legends supporting both Dean Zone's own productions and his Zone Traxx releases reads like a who's who of Hard Dance with consistent support coming from the likes of Mark EG, Proteus, Amber D, Fausto, Luca Antolini, Sam Punk, DJ Husband, Nomad, Shock:Force, Louk, Busho, Nutty T and many, many more.
