Those samples play at different velocity ranges – which is controlled by the sliders. Now, the FPC supports multi layered samples that play dependent on the velocity.įor example, if you left-click the upper left pad (in the Default drum kit), you will see the following in the Layer Properties:What this means is that there are 3 different samples for the same pad. See below:Try clicking several times at different vertical positions and you will understand what I am talking about.

To switch between drum kit presets, use the Plugin options menu as shown below:Default, Gretch Full and Tama have samples, Empty gives you an empty FPC with no samples (a good starting point for creating your own drum kit).Cool, let’s play around with it a bit.The PadsIf you click on a pad, it will turn blue and you will hear the sample.Now, the vertical position on the pad determines the samples velocity. See below:The FPC plugin will now load in a new channel.By default, the drum kit that is loaded is the one with the name ‘Default’ (yeah, that makes sense). It is especially this last option that opens up for some interesting possibilities – as we will see later in this tutorial.Anyway, let’s dig a bit deeper.The InterfaceSee below for the main interface of the FPC.Adding the FPCTo add the FPC, choose FPC under Channels Add one in the main menu. Others require you to swipe your credit card (figuratively speaking).You can also create your own drum kits, which allows you to combine your own preferred samples into one kit.

The pattern you see in the above screenshot is one of those percussion patterns that ship with the FPC.It is also possible to download additional drum kits, some of which are free of charge. To make things really really easy, the FPC has loads of percussion patterns (for every possible genre) that load directly into your Piano Roll. See the screenshot below:Now, the good thing is that the FPC comes with a few presets (drum kits that contain samples for kick drum, snare drum, etc.) so you can get started right away. In the piano roll you can then program the entire rythmic groove for your composition using those samples. For instance, in a single drum kit you could have matching samples (patches) for the kick drum, snare drum, open hihat, closed hihat, crash, shakers, etc. In my own words, the FPC allows you to collect and combine percussion samples (in so called drum kits) and it effectively enables you to program your entire beat using a single channel. It supports 16 multi layered patches (bank A and B). While it does not discuss every single control or feature, it should give you a good grasp of what the FPC is and how you can use it in your projects.What is the FPCFPC is a multi-layer/velocity drum machine for creating, editing and swapping drum kits. Maybe it had some hidden features that – once revealed – would benefit me when composing songs.This tutorial is an introduction to the FPC. ‘Easier ways’ does not necessarily mean ‘better ways’, so once again I decided to leave the path of least resistance and have a close look at the FPC. I’ve looked at the plugin several times, but usually - after fiddling with it for some time - I deleted it from my project and moved on to ‘easier ways’ to program my beat.
