about vocals in fruity loops... thats gonna be hard a shit to do up properly. fruity loops is good for doing loops but i found it sucked for working with samples and recording stuff.. I used to use fruity loops because it was super easy to learn how to build beats with it. But if you want a great sequencer that you can work with vocals and junk as well as loops, try Ableton Live it's what I use
Check it out! I wrote a free book on music production! It's for total beginners, but if you aren't new to music production, maybe you'll still learn something... at least you can send it to your friends who always want to ask you a billion questions about music production! It's totally free too; my goal with this is to accumulate as many BFF's as possible.
