How many cats have you converted over to fl studio?

[Kang_Solomon_Grundy]

Fruity Loops.... fuck that shit!

I hate it, not because it's a bad program. But, because now there is producer on every corner now thinking they are real "producers" because they got a copy of FL Studio. Fuck outta here

just because niggas have a beat-making program, mpc, or keyboard doesn't make them producers, or good for that matter. it's all about what you do with them. I can hold a hammer and nails in my hand, but that doesn't make me a fucking carpenter, right?

for me, it took one of my partners to break it down. I had fl for years, but never used it - I just couldn't see myself clicking those little-ass boxes and shit LOL. my boy, who's an mpc user like me, hipped me to it and I was like "nigga - please tell me ther's another way other than clickin' them lil' boxes, mayne! ". he broke down the shit to where I can use it similarly to a mpc (sequence/song building). using the piano-roll to tweak shit is dope, and all of my vst's load into it flawlessly. I had already begun using battery for chopping samples, so integrating that into FL was a breeze. hands down, FL is the best thing to happen to my studio set-up. period.

Damn. I never usually have time to have one of my friends or producers guide me through how to do that shit. Looks maaaad complicated and I'm an actual musician. Smh.

You know, I kinda have that beef to. Being in the Bay, a lot of niggas made horrible ass Hyphy beats and think it's an accomplishment 'cause they were able to use the simplest of the top beatmaking software programs. Then again, I've seen people do incredible shit with FL studio so I can't hate on it too much.

Dude, do you think you could send me a copy of the FL exe program so I can try to fiddle around with it in my spare time? Most places you get it online only have free trial versions and shit.

You make a great point with that carpenter line though. Thing is, there's a lot of niggas with hammers and nails and FL Studio would be the Starbucks of hardware stores.

I fucks with it

I got ya' - I got the crack that should un-lock the trial ver.

 

[jonb348]

shit is crack - and I used to be strictly a "hardware" user

I'd jab that nigga in the throat with a jump drive filled with fl beats

yo - is you the jonb from before the upgrade?

yeah what up!! so you a mod now? LOL Fresh Produce with a mod. i cant imagine it

 

[eMGeeLBC]

Amen! I still get dirty looks for using FL Studio too, but fuck em! its not what you use its how u use it! Chuuuuuchhh

 

[cleric]

Who here actually payed for Fruity Loops?

Who here actually payed for Fruity Loops?

lmao - good question; I've been getting a guilty conscience lately and am actually gonna cop a "legit" version - for what it does it's definitely worth the $.....

 

[cleric]

I was wondering its only $250 which is pretty good for a DAW by comparison Logic Pro 9 $499 Reasons 4 is like 400. cats walking around with cracked software dont realize they could have better software if the makers had more capital.

I have logic but the workflow and learning curve were steep, Hence my fall back to the MPC. I hope Apple buys them out and learns something about work flow.

 

[7thwardslim]

I brought the FL Studio out the store......Before i always got them on the bootleg...... well shit the 1 time i do decide to buy with my hard earned money....

I found out that i spent 230+ dollars and i they didnt give me a lot of plug-ins.....well put it like this.....this is my last one im buying out the store...

i have the FL 9....... funny thing i tell people i use everything....and they never even ask if i use FL Studio.....i know guys who use reason and mpc and tritons u name it....

if u tell somebody u use FL they will attack....but if u tell them u use any other program its all good....but if u get the right sounds i doubt u can tell the difference....

get all the kits from page 1......and u should straight......

 

[Krayzazz1]

I started out with FL studio 3. then went to reason. Then to sonar. Now im back with Fl studio 9. There really is no limits with the newest version

 

[s_double]

I thought only homos use FL???? Your telling me theirs actually straight people who use this??? You've got to be kidding me.

Been lurking for a while but decided to respond to this thread since it was getting stupid imho.

I bought FL Studio in 2002 and have used ever since. I have made albums, songs, singles, jingles, TV commercials, game music, music for documentaries with it... you name it..

I paid half my house and a car using FL Studio (+other tools).

I've also owned 4 MPCs, now on a Roland Fantom G, but I still feel sequencing and creating ideas is fantastic in FL Studio.

I mix in Logic thou.. FL Studio (PC) & hardware for production, Logic (Mac) for mixing and mastering.

I use all tools available, there's no "best" for me, just different tools. FL Studio is fantastic and equally professional as everything these days, cats just don't know their shit and call it a "toy" whatever. I make a living out of making music and audio production, so that makes me PRO and a get a say here.. hehe!

I love the fact that when you buy FL Studio, you get a lifetime of free updates + access to the online video tutorials + forum + online content (many gigas of free samples). I don't know any other company that offers this.

Here's a 10% off coupon code for all Image Line products, including FL Studio and all their plug-ins (OSX AU plugins FTW!): http://affiliate.image-line.com/DDHBG345

Use that code and save up for some additional plugins, piza & beer whatever.

Enjoy and be happy! Pay for the software you use, you're supporting the developement!
