I can't ****ing believe this........

my new track which I was gonna finish tonight has just been deleted by the fucking flstudio!!! I can't fucking believe this! I was gonna save the last few changes in the flp file and suddenly it popped me an error something like "could not save to the file", and it deleted my best project so far!! what a whore!!!! I still can't believe it........the project file was something like 200kb and now it's 84.5kb and when I try to open it floops says "An error occured while opening the FLP file"
damn it's so frustrating..my best project gone in a second

That sux man. I dont use fl personally but I have made it a habbit to save my stuff 2 times everytime I save under different names just incase one were to get jacked up, you'll have the other one. Luckily i've never had to do it worry about one messing up though. Does fruity have the option to save automatically?

I don't know...but usually I save my projects twice too, just in this case I didn't coz I thought I was gonna finish this up and then I'll make a copy on a floppy.
damn I don't even know where to start...all channels were so balanced and well compressed..the volumes and stuff..I had something like 15 automation clips, had a melody with a nordlead and strings, piano, guitar..I made a rather original beat imo..fx, swooshes and stuff, the atmosphere, pads, strings in the intro..all fucking gone now....
and the thing is that I turned off the system restore a couple of days ago...

always save your songs in 'stages'

Example, if I saved a song in 13 stages, i have:

C:/program files/propellerhead/reason 2.5/my projects/song title/song title 1
C:/program files/propellerhead/reason 2.5/my projects/song title/song title 2
C:/program files/propellerhead/reason 2.5/my projects/song title/song title 3
...
C:/program files/propellerhead/reason 2.5/my projects/song title/song title 13

Just like I do when playing a first person shooter game like Unreal 2, etc...I keep pressing F5 (Quick Save) every 30 seconds or so to save my progress. Same with cubase...I keep saving it as soon as I make a change and I save it under different names and in different hardrives. Not that it matters...I never finish my stuff or work on it again, hehe. I'm sorry it happened to you, ronk. =o( That happened to me a few times when the melodies were great and it was once in a life time deal of coming up with them.

Always back your shit up man !!, its a hard lesson to learn I know, but you only learn through your mistakes.

If you ever make drastic changes to your project, backup STRAIGHT AWAY.

FL will fuck you up every time, I used to use FL a few years back....so believe me I know

thanks guys...it helps, somehow..
I'll upload the last mp3 file that I've saved from the project (it was a part of the intro..1:20..and it has some major hihat problems in the end of it that I fixed but didn't save as mp3) so you could know why I'm so mad...I was really gonna send it out to lots of labels..

thats a real shame worst things that can happen...

best thing is to learn from it..

I always make a "Project Name" and "Project Name Backup" and ill swap saving on each of those everytime i save..

This same tragedy happenes to a producer every 10 minutes across the world.

Join the fight and stop corrupt/accidentally deleted project files!
