I hope this tutorial helps others with the SR18 drum machine get started with their drum machine. Want to record the drum patterns neatly into FL Studio? Just hit "Wait for input to start playing" up top in the FL Studio toolbar and FL Studio will not play nor record until you hit play on the drum machine. You should now be able to play notes in the FL Studio Piano Roll and you can now record MIDI patterns from the drum machine into FL Studio! How awesome is that?! Open it, change the MIDI Channel to 12 and the port number to 11. Now go to "Channels" and "Add One." and select "MIDI Out." A new MIDI Output channel is created. Select the generic controller, leave all other settings default, and close the window. Make sure "Enable" is set for enabling input from the device.
In your FL Studio MIDI settings screen, set the port number to 10 and all other channel numbers to 10. Make sure you save your settings (hold the SAVE/COPY button and press the red "REC (enter)" button and the screen should say SAVED). If you are using the drum machine as the master device and/or want to sync it with the tempo in FL Studio, you will have to play with the CLOCKOUT and CLOCK IN settings. The rest of the settings can be left default.
Here are how the following settings should be: Now go onto your drum machine and bring up the SYSTEM SETUP. The UM-1G interface should show up on the list. Turn on the drum machine and launch FL Studio. Again, MIDI THROUGH is set to OFF, not on like you would think it should be. Now, if you are using the Cakewalk USB interface I have, make sure on the device that "ADVANCED DRIVER" is set to ON and "MIDI THROUGH" is set to OFF. Make sure the IN part of the cable goes into the IN output and the OUT goes into the OUT output!!! Plug the drum machine into the appropriate MIDI in and out outputs on the drum machine.

Set up the drum machine and learn how to use it and set up patterns. A cheap Alesis MultiMix 4 desktop USB mixer works the best, and it's compatible with ALL versions of Windows including 32 and 64 bit of Windows Vista and Windows 7. You will need a mixer board or a sound card with either 1/8 or 1/4 instrument cable inputs. This is if you want to use the audio from the drums for your drum sounds. An optional pair of two 1/4 instrument cables. I have the Cakewalk UM-1G MIDI Interface, google it, it's the best because it has indicator lights.ģ. The drum machine and FL Studio of course.Ģ.
