FL Studio

FL Studio can import MIDI files and export WAV, MP3, OGG and MIDI files.

No store will let you return opened software if you have opened the box. If you are unhappy with the program, your best bet is to find another program that offers a 'competitive upgrade' from FL-Studio, so you can buy the other program at a reduced cost.

FL Studio 8 is better and is free.

3xOsc is a popular and very customizable FL Studio plugin that has been a part of the program since its initial releases. It is basically a synthesizer plugin with 3 tones to create unique sounds (3 oscillators). You can adjust the oscillation type of each tone (saw, triangle, square or pulse) and adjust their individual velocities, panning, pitch or fine tune offsets.

3xOsc initially sounds like a Hammond organ, but with a bit of fiddling with each oscillator and adding some effects in the assigned rack, it is very capable of creating some awesome sounding instruments and effects.

You will notice a small drop-down box in one of the panels called "snap" and adjust it to the beat timing of your song. If you are using a standard 3/4 beat, set this snap to "cell" and while in the piano roll of your pattern, press [CTRL] + Q to instantly quantize all unselected notes in the pattern, or do the same to selected notes to only quantize those.

Take note as the zoom level of the piano roll affects this quantization. If you are zoomed out where the 3/4 cells are merged into beat or bar view (FL does this so that the screen isn't clustered with too many vertical lines), then the pattern will quantize to what cells are visible. Zoom in to the actual note lengths of the snap and FL will align every note.

If you write your notes in the step sequencer instead of the piano roll, they will be automatically quantized to the snap and shuffle settings, then you can simply send those notes to the piano roll as they are played. Keep in mind when doing this if your snap is set to "cell" and you adjust the shuffle, quantizing the notes sent to the piano roll will snap to 3/4 and you will lose the shuffle positions. To keep them, change the snap settings to 1/3 step or 1/3 beat.

Mbox2 factory is a hardware/software bundle including an Mbox 2 and Pro Tools LE. FL Studio is a software digital audio workstation/sequencer program. Comparing Pro Tools LE to FL Studio is the question you should be asking. The answer to this question depends of what your goals and needs are. Generally FL Studio has a more flexible and faster work-flow compared to Pro Tools. On the other had Pro Tools is somewhat of an industry standard in recording studios. If you need to collaborate with existing professional studios then Pro Tools may be a better choice. Specifically both programs are capable of the same or similar functions, such as audio-recording, hosting VST plugins, sequencing, mixing etc. FL Studio performs these functions at a fraction of the price of Pro Tools. Interestingly, while pro-tools is considered pro it has a maximum output resolution of 24 bit while FL Studio has 32 bit float.

Find FLEngine.DLL file. Copy and paste it to the root screen of the Fl Studio folder. (usually program files(x86), image-line, fl studio whatever number,) then paste it and open fl studio, and you have the producer edition. or better.

No, .flp save files are opened in FL Studio only, you can however load up FL Studio and use it as a VST within another sequencer of your choice, so you could use FL Studio as a VST within Cubase for example and then load up your .flp project file with all the playback going into Cubase.

Download the samples and put them in a folder somewhere on your computer. Then open FL Studio and go to Options>File Settings. Press the folder icon and select the folder you made with your samples. Good luck!

If you mean adding other music tracks, OGG or MP3 sounds, then yes. You can add them into the sequencer channels as audio clips or samples based on what you want to do with them. You can then automate their time, pitch and edit the sound file with Edison, slice it up with Fruity Slicer, robotize the audio with Vocodex or Fruity Vocoder or scratch it up with Fruity Scratcher.

if you mean the cereal yes. the recording software never heard of it but can you use it to record a rock song if so then yes

Reason is very similar as Fruity Loops, its a better program and takes a little more time to master

Not if you download it from a trusted source. The best one being the Image-Line website.

No you can't. Only FLP files can be reloaded as FL Studio projects. When a song is exported as an MP3, it is compiled as a single audio source for playback only. You can export the song to MP3 and tell FL Studio to split the tracks into separate audio files, you can only then reimport the individual files as audio clips. However, if you created any of the audio with effects in place, they will be in the audio file permanently and adding more effects to the audio clips may make them sound worse.

It is a piece of software that you can create electronic music with.

Quite possibly, but it would not be compatible with the ImageLine community, some plugins may not be compatible and the software may not even run in the newer operating systems. LMMS is completely free and as capable of almost as much as the latest FL Studio.

When taking hands off the midi keyboard it will stop a loop from playing. Taking your hands off will stop everything.

No if you take your hands off the keys it carries on playing till the end of the loop.

Autotune is a vocal pitch correction plug-in made by Antares. FL Studio owners can add on NewTone, a vocal pitch corrector as an online purchase for FL Studio 9, or buy Autotune and run it as a VST plugin.

yes , you can actually record vocals with producer edition and clean any noise with Edison and its denoise feature.

If you mean that the zip file was actually created by FL Studio as a zipped loop package, then yes, you can simply load it into any FL Studo as long as you used the same version and the FL standard plugins. The FL zipped loop package only saves information about what plugins were used and you may have to add any others used to the zip file. It also contains all of the samples that did not come as part of the FL Studio standard sample packs.

Sony Acid Music Studio and FL Studio 9 (these are their proper names) are very different programs, so you'll have to try out each one to decide which is the better program for you. You can download trial versions of these programs.

If you're into creating your own beats with individual drum elements, then choose FL Studio. If you want to mix different loops together, choose Acid.

Note that Acid Music Studio is a scaled-down cheaper version of Acid Pro 7, the current professional version. Acid Music Studio is commonly bundled with sound cards, video editing software and other hardware.

One method of illegally obtaining a registered copy of FL Studio is to torrent one from a torrent website like The Pirate Bay or Kickass Torrents using a bittorrent program like uTorrent. However, there are copyright intelligence agencies like Evidenzia that may log your IP address in doing so. A more secure way would be to copy a registration key from a friend's copy and paste it on your computer in the installation folder where you can then add it to your registry.

Around 3 Gb. It would depend on your hard drive on what means "alot". As your computer could be ranging from any thing.

No, however, you can run it with bootcamp.

You need to export the file to an mp3 then import it into a video editing software (eg. Windows Live Movie Maker) then export that into a video file. You can then upload that to YouTube.

Hope I answered your question :)

EDIT: If you wish to show it this way... use a screen capturing program like Fraps and capture the FL Studio workspace as you edit and play, otherwise the above way would be correct if you just wanted your song in a video of your choice.
