A detailed list of these is available on–line at Briefly, several new plug–ins have been added to the bundle, and some smaller enhancements have been made to the core program. Numerous small improvements and refinements have been made to FL Studio since version 7. (Users of the boxed version can add the lifetime upgrade service for just $29, according to the Image Line web site.) The SOS web site has reviews of several previous FL Studio versions archived, while a comprehensive list of features and specifications is available from Image Line themselves at Since space here is limited, I'll be concentrating on new additions made for version 8. Unusually, Image Line offer "free updates for life" to anyone who buys FL Studio on–line, which seems like a pretty good deal. (Note that none of these versions supports score editing.)Īll versions are available to buy as downloads, and all but the Express version are available as boxed products. Producer Edition adds full audio recording and editing features, and mix automation, while the XXL Edition reviewed here adds extra plug–ins, and video support.
Fruity Edition adds a more flexible piano–roll editor and the ability to use FL Studio itself as a plug–in within other host applications. FL Studio Express provides a basic step sequencer only, and has many other features disabled. The program is available in several different versions, of increasing complexity. To briefly recap, FL Studio provides easy–to–use pattern- and track–based MIDI sequencing, audio recording and editing, and support for instrument and effects plug–ins (a good number of which are included), for PCs running Windows 2000, XP and Vista, in both 32– and 64–bit flavours. It's now up to version 8, and benefits from a number of additions that have been made to an already rather long list of features. With significant updates released annually, Image Line's FL Studio has become a regular visitor to these pages over the last few years.
And if that's still not enough, you can now create your own. Version 8 sees another boatload of new processors added to the FL Studio family.
