In this video, I will show you how to automate master volume in FL Studio.
Master volume automation sounds simple enough, but there are many ways to do this in FL Studio, and unfortunately, many people use it the wrong way. It's not technically "wrong" but the volume automation will be much more efficient if you do it correctly. Volume automation is probably the most essential automation there is for a music producer.
You typically want the low-energy sections in your song to be more dynamic and more relaxing than the high-energy sections.
If you don't use volume automation correctly, then the low-energy sections will remain heavily compressed even after the master volume automation, which is not ideal because it will make your track sound more fatiguing and less varied when it comes to energy distribution.
Not only can this make it sound fatiguing, but it will also make the drop sound less energetic and impactful than it could have been,
In this FL Studio beginner tutorial, I will show you the two most common ways to add master volume automation in FL Studio. Note that in some situations, automating the fader can be preferred, if you for some reason want that compressed sound to remain, but in most cases, using a plugin to automate the master volume before the dynamics processing is the preferred way to do it in FL Studio, and any other daw too for that matter.
