“FL Studio’s duty is to get more people to stick with music-making”: CEO Constantin Koehncke on FL Studio 2025 and beyond

[Awesome Wells]

I will say as an FL user I would love to own an SP1200, MPC One, Linn Drum, Stretch DX, etc. The shyts expensive as hell though and rare; one top of being used up as hell for over 30 years now (aside from MPC One). I always told myself Imma buy equipment with money I make from music, not work money.

There's a spot here in NYC, that has a good 10-15 used SP's.

They run around $7K now, but if you can, definitely cop one. As much as I love learning on it and trying to recreate sh*t I did on the MPC, it's very different and hard as a MF to do on the SP. But the feel and sound of the SP is really on some other sh*t. Going from the MPC to practicing on the SP is basically like you never made a beat in your life, but it's mad fun.

I’m missing the point yet other people are replying to u saying the same shyt as I am? U missed the damn point from the jump. The first cat asked if FL was better than Pro Tools and I said it’s all in what ur using it for. YOU are the one who came in straight up shytting on FL.

Did I take your lunch money or some sh*t in '95?

Bro, respectfully, GTFOH, lol.

 

[Crumple]

Is this better than pro tools? Also is the lowest price ($180) good enough?

I use FL Studio for programming drums, using my midi keyboard and more.

I have over 500,000 views on Worldstar and YouTube and 60 monthly Spotify listeners currently. I earn more off my 9-5, but I get my streaming payments. These are the facts for now releasing music for 23 years.

This beat I completely made from scratch on FL and it's a fan favorite

U literally have no idea what ur talking about and I say this with utmost seriousness. U sound like a nikka who never made beats before. I can show u production from FL Studio that u would NEVER guess. All of these DAWs have their strengths and weaknesses. For instance Pro Tools is industry standard for recording but Cubase been better than that shyt for years.

Word I was gonna say I've seen mad top producers use FL lol

 

[DapMeUp!]

I haven't made beats in years, but when I was out of the 3 I used (FL, Reason and Logic) FL was always the quickest way to get my ideas down.

 

[REAL6]

Logic pro, MPC studio and Koala sampler are my go to.

 

[Art Barr]

Never listen to no one dissing fl.

Period.

The problem is not fruity loops.

The problem is no talent eight mile talent trying to rap. As well as.
no talent producers trying to rap.

That is the problem.

Sohh as a top flight emcee.
If you indulge someone who has beats.
You listen to people's production.
They playing you throw aways.

Likd they dope enough to rock on their best beats.
That as a grassroots headliner draw. It is like move yo goof noob eight mile lie face ass tha fukk around.

As the issue is.
Eight mile lie no talents who think they can rap.
That is the issue.


Fruity loops is not the issue.

The issue are the no talent eight mile lie face ass rappers.
Who need to stick to producing.
Who need to shut their eight mile lie face and lips.

I don’t judge folks who use FL cause I only use Logic Pro to track out stuff from my hardware and apply mixing/saturation plugins for finishing touches

My hardware bag:

Ensoniq EPS 16 Plus
Korg 01W FD
Korg Triton Rack
Zoom SampleTrak ST-224 (Lo-Fi monster)
Gemini DS-824 (UK version of the DS-1224. Used on a lot of old underground Memphis tapes)

DAW/HARDWARE WARS

How about people post their beats so we can see the clear victor?

Preach about Cubase.
Protools is lile Jordans and Apple.
nikkas bring it up to try and look cooler.

 

[Awesome Wells]

Nah, I just need you to stop following me to every thread I'm in. It's weird AF.

I don’t even know who you are, bro. I can't give you the attention you're thirsty for.

 

[AAKing23]

This shyt reminded me I been literally hacking and stealing programs most of my literal life

Me too but I went clean last year, I'm a legal owner of FL Studio now, we don't talk about our criminal past ways

Dope!

My first keyboard when I was a kid, was the Ensoniq EPS 16 Plus. I loved it back in the day! I used to run it with the MPC and the S950 back then. I still have it in the closet. Went from that to the Trinity, and then to the Triton Extreme. I need to dust those off soon.
