How to Make a Dramatic Outro in FL StudioДЇor the outro for this track, I layered a Motif Concert Piano with Marcato (dark) Strings and a String Ensemble to give it a very dramatic sounding finish.

Thus giving the main verses a unique sounding hi-hat sequence, which can be seen below. In particular, I used a bunch of 1/8 notes mixed with full-length beat notes for the first hi-hat pattern, and then for the second hi-hat pattern, I just used Вј notes for the whole 16 bar verse beat patterns.

However, of course, the tempo can be changed at any time during the beat making process to your suit the style of beat you are making.ДЄlso in terms of swing, you generally do not want to set it to more than 15%, which is what I set the swing to on this track to make the beat sound less robotic.ДЇor the intro for this track (i.e. The first thing to do before you begin making a Trap beat in FL Studio is to set up the basic beat sequencer settings in the FL Studio beat sequencer window.ДЄnd for this Trap beat, I chose to set the bar length to 8 beats/bar and set the tempo to 94 BPM for the main verses and 92 BPM for the intro and outro.
