What is FL Studio

FL Studio (formerly known as FruityLoops) is a full-featured, open architecture, music production environment capable of audio recording, composing, sequencing and mixing, for the creation of professional quality music.FL Studio was developed by Belgain company Image-Line software. FL Studio was originally the creation of Didier Dambrin who went on to take the role of the lead programmer at Image-Line, responsible for its core development.
FL Studio features a fully automatable workflow based on a pattern-based music sequencer. The environment includes MIDI support and incorporates a number of features for editing, mixing, recording, and mastering audio. Completed songs or clips may be exported to Microsoft WAV , MP3, and the OGG Vorbis format using various high-quality sampling interpolation algorithms.

FL Studio Features


FL Studio processes audio using an internal 32-bit floating-point engine. It can support sampling rates up to 192 kHz using either WDM or ASIO enabled drivers.FL Studio comes with a variety of plugins and generators (software synthesizers) written in the program’s own native plugin architecture. This API has a built in wrapper for full VST, VST2, VST3, DX, and ReWire compatibility (many vsts are free).FL Studio also includes a plugin called Dashboard allows users to create full automation-enabled interfaces for their hardware MIDI devices. This allows FL Studio to control hardware from within the program.

I personally use FL Studio it's a really great music production software, but i do recommend that you at least have a little of music experience.
