How to Change a Drum Set on FPC

A music producer needs more than the generic presets that come with most drum machines. The Fruity Pad Controller, included in the FL Studio software package, comes with several such drum presets, and those overused kicks and snares quickly become stale. With a few clicks, though, a user can swap drum sets on the FPC and find the perfect sound.
