Make music with Fledgetone
Hands-on lessons, one idea at a time: open the studio beside this page and follow along. Each one builds a real example you can open at the end. For every button and setting, see the guide.

A tour of the studio
Open a song, play it, and find your way around the screen: the timeline, the piano roll, the mixer and the menus.

Make your first beat
Click a drum pattern into the piano roll's drum rows, loop it, give it swing, add a fill, and meet the Drummer.

Export, share and finish

Make music on your phone
Make a short song in Fledgetone Pocket, the phone version: tap in a beat, add chords and a bass line, sing over it, mix it, arrange it and share it.
Intermediate

Lesson 4 · 20 minutes
Bass lines and 808s
Write a bass line on the chords' roots, then an 808 that slides, sits in the key and ducks under the kick so the low end breathes.
-
Lesson 5 · 30 minutes
Arrange a full song
Turn an 8-bar loop into a song with an intro, verse, build, drop, breakdown and outro, using copies, markers, a build-up, a tempo rush and a key change.

Lesson 6 · 30 minutes
Mix and master
Take a finished song and mix it yourself: levels, panning, EQ, compression, reverb and delay, a drum bus, then a master that's ready for streaming.
-
Lesson 7 · 30 minutes
Record and polish vocals
Record your voice over a beat, sing a line several times and keep the best bits, then add a vocal chain, tuning, a double, ad-libs and a beat that makes room for you.

Score a video

Lesson 10 · 35 minutes
Game music that reacts
Turn a song into music a game can steer: states to switch between, transitions, intensity layers and stingers, then export it for Godot, Unity, the web, FMOD or Wwise.
