Can I add my vocal and guitar tracks to my songs?

See the section 'How to record audio?' if you want to record a vocal or guitar. This section discusses what to do with pre-recorded audio.
FL Studio does not have dedicated "audio tracks" but there are many ways to add audio tracks or wav files to your songs, you can drag from the FL Studio Browser or a Windows file browser and:
- Drop an audio file right on the Playlist - this will result in an Audio Clip pattern being created and sampler channel added. The Playlist triggers when and there the audio plays. You can also slice the sample up, delete some parts and move others around, to have only the relevant parts play.
- Drop the audio file onto a Sampler Channel. This method is great to trigger the sample from the Step sequencer or a Piano roll. Particularly useful with short percussion sounds or 'hits'.
- Drop the audio file into Fruity Slicer or Slicex - and slicer will autoslice the file for you and lay it out in pianoroll. Depending on source material you may need to make some adjustments to the slice points and number (see the manual). For percussion and non-sustaining material - check out the unique "Fill Gaps" function which can do wonders for time stretching/compressing - you'll be amazed by results.
- Drop the file into Fruity Granulizer instead of Sampler. The only downside compared to Sampler - is that sampler has option to "keep on disk" for the long files, which is essentially disk streaming. Granulizer on the other hand will load the entire wave file into the memory. But after that - it's a list of cool things: Granulizer can play your file from the middle when you change song position, it can also perform Acid-style stretching (see the "Fit" LED in SMP tab).
A word of caution - think about what you are stretching - depending on type of material - some things (drums, bass, non-sustaining riffs) belong in Slicer and can benefit tremendously from the "Fill Gaps" tool. Some materials can be stretched beautifully with Granulizer and it's "Fit" option - sustaining pads, strings, vocals - however play with other knobs on Granulizer for best results - some tuning may really increase quality of the stretch.
In summary - everything needed for what you want is already there. If you are an advanced user - you will quickly discover it for yourself.
