CHAPTER 2. FRUITY LOOPS:
Changing MIDI to MP3 in my BTWell, now we may locate the MIDI file in our computer and then we may import it in the FRUITY LOOPS so, open this program and click to import
Now we have all the tab that we do in guitar pro imported into the Fruity loops. You can see all the previous chanels that we created in the Guitarpro. Just see
This is our session but if you click the PLAY button you can listen nothing, this tracks are MIDI files, so they don't have asigned any sound. Then we may assign this sound. What I usually do is replacing the channel by another with a good sound, so I usually use VST, for instance BroomstickBass, EWQL Symphonic Orchestra or Addictive Drums (I will explain something about VSTs and sample in another chapter
)
Now see how I replace the channels by a VST or a soundfont or a sample
VSTs:
Soundfonts:
Samples:
Well finally we will have all the chanels replaced with a great sound, now we can add some effects or manipulate the sounds, (will explain how to do it in another lesson) and then we will be ready to export the file to Mp3
Saving as = guardar como (hehe, in Spanish language
)
And the last window: in this window you can change the Mp3 quality or you can decide to export to Wav (I usually use Mp3 bitrate: 300
That's all, now we have the Backing Track
I must say that I don't export all channels in the same Mp3 but also I export one by one, I export every channel to a different Mp3 so I would hav 15 Mp3
But it works better for me to do de mix and to be sure all the chanels (or instruments) have the correct volumen, panning and effects
