Those little things can really change the way a track sounds. I need to know if it's an insert, pre or post fader send. Where an effect or bus is in the chain makes a huge difference. If I want to change it it will be for a specific reason. I want to know how the sound is getting the way it is. That is important when I'm sorting things out. I can trace the signal path as if there were a console in front of me. Maybe it's familiarity or maybe it's just because it works the way I understand audio. Still, when working with audio, I would prefer to stick with Cubase, PT or one of the other DAWs. The sequencing in FL though it quite revolutionary IMHO. Maybe I have the wrong impression but to me it doesn't seem to have a lot going for it if you intend to do a lot of audio editing. The editing and automation are quite advanced. There are a lot of great tools in Cubase for people who like to record actual instruments as well as vox. That number is getting smaller and smaller. Cubase was designed for people who work mostly with audio. touchy subject you see.įruity loops is mainly midi and loops. To repeat what is being said over and over here, and which i totally agree with: its the musician that makes the music, not the tools he uses. It does not mean there are no workarounds, and certainly not than the one is better than the other.Īll of the above are just personal opinions, but people who judge the quality of your results by the means with which they were created, absolutely miss the point, are probably ignorant, prejudiced, and not worth listening to. Thats why you use both Cubase AND fl studio, no? And they both have functions that the other doesnt. Now as far as: what does cubase have that the other one doesnt? They are designed with a different approach to working. ive created some of my best music using FL. Ive been producing music for almost 20 years and professionally for around 10, and have used every DAW that i know of. this simple fact alone serves to discredit it by a big part of the "audio production population" who think that only macs are up to the job of using audio professionally. Therefore its assumed a toy for kids and amateurs who fill their time doing simple loops on their laptop whilst sitting on the loo or whatever.Ĥ. It is not associated with big studios or as an "industry standard" workstation. The interface design is admittedly, (but not unfortunately), a bit "cartoon" or "video game" like, if you know what i mean.ģ. The name sounds very unimposing (compare "fruity loops" as opposed to the ring of say, "Digidesign Pro-Tools TDM", or "MOTU Digital Performer")Ģ.
People who have no clue got stuck with that impression, ignoring how it developed from that into one of the most versatile, spontaneous composition tools today - IMHO.ġ. This was a very basic step sequencer which could load samples and manipulate time and pitch, and appart from some (terribly sounding) filters and sound shaping tools, that was it. Ive pondered this question myself on several occasions and have some possible hypotheses:Īs you probably know, FL studio started out as fruity loops.
