Man, just looking through the comments... you're shooting for a song every week? You have a lot more dedication and drive than I do. I tend to make a song once or twice every few months...
I use FL Studio as well. Maybe you could give me some pointers? I've pretty much figured it out I think but I still wonder how to do some things. Like, how did you put a voice into it? (Is it a recording of your voice or a synth or?) I'd love to talk more!
For vocals, I use a program called Audacity to record, then import them into my FL project as audio clips. I don't consider myself a pro at FL in any way, but I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have the best that I can. Send me a note anytime.
You don't record directly with FL? why? Does FL not let you or do you just prefer to do so? Huh, that's such a strange way to work, I've never heard of it before! New thing a day for me.
It lets you record, but the way it does it really confuses me because I used only Audacity to make music before I had FL. Just kept using what I knew how to use...everything else just seems really convoluted to me for some reason. lol
Huh, in Sonar you just make a new track (audio track instead of soft synth or midi), and you hit record like you would with a soft synth or a midi. I would think that FL would let you do that but hey, I don't know FL. Because that would make it much easier. You should try it again sometime!
Doesn't exactly work like that in FL, but if it did, I'm not sure I'd want to work that way. I prefer exporting the instrumentals to WAV, recording vocals and saving them as WAV, and then working with a new project of just WAV files. I don't want to have all of those soft-synths running along with all of the things I need to mix the vocals in there. My computer would explode from the CPU load. : P

That's actually really smart.
I was amazed at how you did it all with a laptop.
