Pros

“In terms of my workflow, FL has been able to provide a streamlined process to my projects, allowing me to spend less time fidgeting with bugs and issues, and more time recording music and beats.”
PS

Parker S.

CEO

“Another con to FL Studio is sometimes you need to buy a soundpack or download a free sound-kit to widen your audio sample library enough to expand your beats you make!”

CEO-OWNER

“Running the OS Visualizer ( Basic Plug-in provided by FL ) Is pretty much off of the table for me unless i run it without an audio track.”

CEO

Cons

“Just still not a fan of their licensing set up, I'd rather pay once for software and have updates up to a certain point. Plus the software crashing quite frequently.”

“My only frustration with Audition is there are options on the market that accomplish many of the same functionalities without being a monthly subscription price.”

“Confusing to navigate without researching how-to tutorials online.”

Cons

“The cons to using FL Studio is that it takes a lot of online learning to understand how to use the program and also you need some understanding of musical theory, etc.”
