Creating bass slides using Fl Studio's Arpeggiator

Today, I'm going to share a cool different way to do slides and tricks with your sub bass. First things first, you need to load up a bass sample and set it up so that you have complete control over the sample. You can do this by slightly moving the CRF knob so that it uses loop points, or you can go into the INS tab and set the envelope to do the same thing.
















Ok, now you want to go to the FUNC tab in the sampler and mess around with the arpeggiator settings.













I recommend turning the slide setting on, so you get a smoother sound out of the arpeggiator and set the gat knob to the middle or all the way to the left.























You can now play around with the arpeggiator's time knob, up and down options, range/repeat values, and chord options. 

















If you right click the time knob and go to set, the knob has preset values to help keep things on tempo too.














So, that's pretty much it! Have fun playing around with this and hopefully you come up with some interested slides and sounds. Also, here is a link to a mini pack of slides I came up with - http://www.mediafire.com/download/wk32ao9gx9m7y2f/free_bass_slides.7z
