Hey man!
Yeah so this actually made me do some studying into how FL Studio’s signal flow works, when it comes to the Channel Rack and Mixer.
I discovered your audio first starts from the Channel Rack.
Then your audio goes through all your effects, then the fader on your mixer insert controls the volume AFTER effects.
So you can think of it:
- Channel Rack is BEFORE effects volume.
- Then Slot 1 to Slot 10
- Then Mixer fader is AFTER effects volume.
Here’s a video & tutorial I created about What Volume Knob to Use in FL Studio.
