| I have been using FL 3.56, and was planning on remixing a friends track that he made on another version. i couldn't open his file on my version, so I downloaded the Studio version. FL Studio lets me open his track, but almost every sound he used has a red box, and won't play those sounds. I have abolsutely no idea what the problem is or how I can fix it. Thanks for any help. |

he's probably using VST's or Samples which you dont have on your hard disk (local host)

| I don't think he's using samples...what are VST's? |

A VSTi is a synthesizer that operates inside of your sequencer

| thanks for the reply. but I'm almost positive this kid didn't use any kind of outside hardware to make his track. he made it entirely using FL. is there a way to download additional FL plugins to get these sounds? |

When was hardware mentioned by any of the above posters? |

| Well, what do the things in the red boxes say? |

The red channels mean that their samples are missing.
Missing synths give a warning and the channels dont turn red, btw. |

thanks, thats what I figured. But I went on a few hubs and located those exact samples, downloaded them and put them into Fruity Loops. When I drag them over the corresponding red box, its still red. Any ideas? |

Why don't you ask your friend to send you the samples you use :rolleyes: |

| you can export fruityfiles in a zip! ask your friend to export as a .zip! that zip you can open with your FL and you have all the samples he uses! |

If you put the correct samples into the sampler(s), the box will remain red until you change it's colour manually.
If you re-open the FLP file it will display the default colour, as long as FruiyLoops can find the samples. |
