Tweak the software interface target/s - Move the target control/s on the plugin interface with your mouse.
Not all plugins support 'Last tweaked control'. There are two methods Prefer ' Last tweaked control' unless that does not work then use the ' Browser' method. The process will auto-close once the number of hardware controls tweaked equals the number of software targets. The links will be made in the same order the software targets were tweaked.
Make the link/s - Move the knobs/sliders on your controller you want to link.
You should see the controls name momentarily appear above the Multilink controllers switch.
Tweak the software interface target/s - Move the target control/s on the plugin or FL Studio interface with your mouse.
Initiate the link - Click the Multilink controllers icon ( Ctrl+J), it will turn orange.
Make the link/s - Move the knobs/sliders on your controller you want to link to the target.Īlternatively, to make multiple links at a time:.
Optionally - Modify the nature of the link with the pop-up ' Remote control settings'.
Right-Click the knob/slider you want to control and select ' Link to Controller'.
Focusing is the act of clicking on the window/plugin with your mouse. Importantly they continue to work when other parts FL Studio or plugins are focussed. In this way you can save Per-Project Links to project templates so you can have multiple custom controller assignments for specific project applications. They override Global links, until the project is closed and another project (without Per-Project Links) is opened. They are saved with the project and will re-establish when you open the project again.
Per-Project links are active only for the current session/project.
Lock Controllers to Instrument Channels - See Linking Controllers to Play Instrument Channels.
Linking to internal controllers - For information on linking to internal controllers see this page.
Connecting a hardware controller to FL Studio - For information on setting up a hardware controller see the section on F10 > MIDI Settings options.
When you focus the plugin or window, programmed links are automatically re-established. The advantage of Global Links allow you to control many targets with one controller knob, slider or switch.
Global Links - These apply across all Projects, unless overridden by a 'Per-Project link'.
The advantage of Per-Project links is they continue to work when other parts FL Studio or plugins are focussed. They have the highest priority and override Global Links.
Project-level Links - These are per-session and saved per-project.
Recorded movements are then replayed with the project. After linking, controller movements can be recorded in real-time (make sure the recording filter is set to accept 'Automation'). Most controls on the FL Studio interface (knobs/sliders, etc.) can be linked to internal or external controllers. Linking & Using External Hardware Controllers
