Why does fruity loops stutter

You can do this same effect with a snare or kick drum. First lay down some 8th notes in the piano roll on C5. Now that we have our 16th notes adjust the velocity of the notes to start very soft, and build evenly to the max velocity.

This is basically all there is to this effect. Another method technique with stuttering is to stutter only one or two notes in a measure. Here I am using the same sample and I have my 8th notes across the piano roll. All I need to do is select one note hold ctrl on the keyboard and drag.

Once my note is selected, I then just open my chopper again alt-u , and chop the note into 32nds or whatever you want. Now here is the part to make it sound right. When ever you add notes, and they overlap especially if they are the same it will make everything louder. So to compensate for this you want to stagger the velocity of the 32nd notes. So as you can imagine there are a million different things you can do in the piano roll and with the chopper. Once it is painted you will see a little icon in the top left of the sample box.

When that is clicked the sample options will appear and under the Region section there is a Chop option. This will display option specific to chopping! The main options we are concerned with are obviously beat shuffle, Stutter 1, 2, and 3. Beat shuffle with chop the sample into beats, 4 in this case and then shuffle all the beats around to create a random sound kinda effect.

The other 3 stutters are preset chop rhythms that I have done in the image above on the first 3 samples. This is really a very easy method to get the stutter effect you want. If you want a more custom stutter though your going to have to break out the chop tool, and set the snap to NONE!

What are your system specs? Vital runs just fine in FL Studio on two different systems here, even this old i5 with onboard Intel graphics. Do you have another DAW to test Vital in to see if the issue occurs there as well?

That would rule in or out FL Studio as the cause. Does it occur in a fresh project with only Vital loaded? What version of FL Studio are you using? The solution is to close most of the plugins you are using in FL Studio and just open 1 vital every time you want change something, just press F12 then open the Vital you want to edit.

It gets heavier when you even just open 2 instance on the screen. Something else is at play. Some people including myself have no issue whatsoever running Vital in FL Studio. Some people do have problems. There is a reason for that. PS : I bet this is the stutter problem that OP is having in FL Studio, it get worst when you have 4 instance opened at the back of the playlist.
