Cubase VST used to be the standard industry professional application used for music mixing, but many applications are becoming more functional and much easier to use, giving even the amateur composer a chance to enter the music industry. Plugins have been made to automate complex arpeggios and scales so that a note never need be played, just placed into the project of the host by its own automated presets.

FL Studio is one such a program. It is becoming much easier to use, there are many compatible FREE plugins to get a hold of that FL will use without question (unless it's buggy) and you can even load existing MP3's for you to create a remix using some of the FL most basic functions.

The question of which is better can only be defended by loyalty to the industry versus the love of music and the ease of composition by a host application. If you are not too familiar with music mixing, FL Studio has a lesser learning curve and you can simply have years of fun with it, but if you want mastering precision, Cubase or Ableton Live are better, that is if you are not too concerned about an interface with little aesthetic value and don't mind spending hours adjusting the many parameters of a well mastered downmix.
