- Which version of FL Studio do you need?
- Determine which instruments to use. FL Studio Demo includes a full group of software instruments, with each channel containing one instrument plugin. You add a plugin/instrument by clicking the “+” sign on a channel. Usually, an instrument is a synthesizer or a sample player, used to make your melodies and percussions.
- To make a beat in FL Studio, you’re going to need a selection of drums and other samples to play around with. You’re in the early days of production, so I’m assuming you don’t want to be forking out a huge amount of money, if any, for samples right now.
FL Studio is perfect for quickly working out an idea digitally, but the workflow in other DAWs is considered less favourable by the majority. It is also just what you are used to. For techno, you see, for example, that Ableton is very popular because the live possibilities in Ableton are also very extensive.
All right! You are orienting which DAW is suitable for you? Pay attention because this is an important choice. If you plan to buy FL Studio you have three critical options/steps that you have to make and which you have to think about.
1. Do you want to work with FL Studio and not with another DAW?
2. Which version of FL Studio do you need?
3. Crack or buy?
In this article, we will continue to help you make the right choice and provide quality advice. Do you still have specific questions about this subject? Let us know in a comment under this article!
Buy FL Studio or another DAW?
Is FL Studio the right choice for you? FL Studio is one of the most popular DAWs (Digital audio workstations). The popularity is partly because FL Studio is relatively easy to crack, so you can obtain it illegally without having to pay for it. Other DAWs such as Ableton and Logic Pro X is harder to get illegally.
Since the end of 2018 FL Studio is also fully available on Apple computers, this makes the barrier smaller and has become a more accessible product. Ableton works with Windows and Apple, and Logic Pro X only works on Apple computers.
Our opinion, what we would say in the Netherlands, is that it is the chef in the kitchen who makes the food tasty or tasteless, not the kitchen itself. This is also the case for all different plugins and DAWs that are for sale. It is true that the standard plugins that are supplied with Ableton and Logic Pro X are in terms of quality better.
It also has partly to do with the genre that you are going to make. Nearly all hip-hop producers use FL Studio because you can quickly put an idea down with the help of the step sequencer. FL Studio is perfect for quickly working out an idea digitally, but the workflow in other DAWs is considered less favourable by the majority. It is also just what you are used to. For techno, you see, for example, that Ableton is very popular because the live possibilities in Ableton are also very extensive.
Do you work a lot with recording a guitar and vocals? Then Logic Pro X will be very organized, and FL Studio will do a lot less. Every DAW has its advantages and disadvantages!
