FL Studio Hate Thread

[nostaflair]

:D

now i'm waiting for "FL sounds worse than ableton"

 

[nostaflair]

ableton's crashing when i select ASIO but i'll try again tomorrow. part of my issues last time i tried may have been fixed since wineasio was updated in september so im hopeful

FL Studio feels like it's running in Wine even natively on Windows

just curious, what makes you feel like this?

good news i got wineasio working! when i used the version installed from the AUR it would crash ableton/FL whenever i selected wineasio, but after installing directly from source it works fine

just curious, what makes you feel like this?

Whatever your opinion on any DAW is, Bitwig will blow them all out of the water - it's new, optimized and allows for sounds and effects which are not possible in any other DAW.
I'd specify more but I'm only speaking from past, secondhand experience from collaborating heavily with a music producer who's been missing for a year now.
(The guy also has like >200GB of my original samples and can probably clone me if he wanted to)

I just don't like FL's UI to be honest. Ableton just feels far more refined and things are organized better.

As someone who uses FruityLoops since v2.x... You have no idea what you are talking about, bro :-)
It's like saying: "I don't know how to use a saw, so fuck saws!"
If you wrap your head around FL, it's the fastest and most flexible DAW out there imho.

However... Every DAW is more than fine if you can handle it.
I personally don't like ableton for many reasons, however i use it almost daily because it has it's specific strenghts.

SAY NO TO DAW WARS (and war in general)

i honestly don't know why people shit on FL all the time. it all depends on your workflow, how your mind works and what you want to achieve. i've been fucking around with FL for over a decade, still have version 3.0 installed on my thinkpad t60 running XP.

i mainline FL 12 and i'm too stubborn to learn a new system. for all the producers that say "noooo you can't make 'X' genre in FL" just speaks to how braindead they are.

logic, abelton, reason, reaper, audacity, audition, acid, cakewalk, soundforge, the list goes on - i've tried them all. maybe because i'm too stupid to understand anything else, but FL just speaks to me with how it works, flows and ultimately functions.

you can if you want! you can link an instrument or a sample to a playlist track and have it work just like a traditional daw
