I was in the same position about a year ago. Made music as a hobby, got hooked, wanted to explore. It all depends on what type of music you want to make.

I prefer going with a recording app like Cubase, does anyone still use this?
and record your mixes and tracks audio, gives you alot of options!

you don't really need anything more that FL studio these days.

What you need are plug-ins. I buy all my plug-ins because I like to support the industry.

but you can download all those fancy-pants plug-ins like Waves Factor, East-West Quantum Leap, Izotope, or any number of Native instruments VSTis for free somewhere. I'm not going to link them or find them for you.

If you use FL Studio, and you feel limited by it, which I don't see how, then you can try all those other DAWS. You'll probably find that you won't like the inefficient work-flow of others like Cubase or Reaper. I certainly didn't like them at all.

Just compare the Piano rolls of other DAWs to FL studio's and their functionality. That's the most important issue because that's where the majority of the workflow is going to happen--on the piano roll. If you like some other DAW more than FL studio, then use that one, but don't get lured into to that BS about sound quality because it's BS. 24 bit and 32 bit (FL studio) doesn't not sound lesser in quality than 64 bit. If you think you can hear the difference, then by all means make the jump.

The only problem I see with FL studio is that you can't "freeze" a track (turn a track into a wave file immediately to save on CPU resources), There is a way to do that in FL studio, but it's not a 1 button/step process like Cubase or Logic.


And FINALLY! Fl Studio doesn't limit creativity, and that's something I see a lot on forums


Ask this guy if fl studio limits his creativity





or this guy



or better yet ask me
I've made OST stuff with it.
