I’m kinda curious if any other Dopers use Fruity Loops (or FL Studio or whatever they’re calling it nowadays.) I recently reloaded my copy and am trying to come up with something cool so far. I like the intro that I’ve got, but I’m not sure how to develop it from there. Does anyone have any loops to share, either as .flp or .mp3 or .wav?

Also, where can I find more patches, plugins, instruments, and other wav files (especially voices)? I haven’t had too much luck so far.

I don’t have my copy installed at the moment, but I love using FruityLoops (or whatever it is) for cool stuff.

[Hammersound.com](http://www.hammersound.net) is a pretty good source for soundfonts.

For plugins, go to [www.kvr-vst.com](http://www.kvr-vst.com). Some good free soft synths are crazy diamonds, crystal, freealpha, synth1 and triangle 2. That should be plenty to get you started.  
As for flp files, go to the FruityLoops s.ex forum but you need to be a registered user.

No, that cereal’s too sweet. It’s like chocolate frosted sugar bombs made real!
