PROS / This software has a vast loop and sound library.

CONS / Recording live instrumentation requires a bit of a learning curve.

VERDICT / FL Studio’s strengths are in a large loop library and many virtual instruments to create music.

Image-Line FL Studio has been around for almost two decades. This audio production software is centered around creating electronic music with a sequencer. FL has always been considered beat-building software as opposed to a full digital audio workstation. Previous versions of FL Studio were unable to record live instrumentation like a typical DAW. Today, FL Producer Edition 11 features all of the electronic beat-building tools that you’d expect from this studio software and also the ability to record live instrumentation.
