FL Studio
FL Studio (known as FruityLoops before 2003) is a digital audio workstation (DAW) developed by the Belgian company Image-Line. It features a graphical user interface with a pattern-based music sequencer. It is available in four different editions (including FL Mobile) for Microsoft Windows and macOS.
After their initial purchase, lifetime updates of the software are free to registered users. Image-Line also develops FL Studio Mobile for Android, iOS, macOS, and Universal Windows Platform devices.
FL Studio can be used as either a Virtual Studio Technology (VST) or Audio Unit (AU) instrument in other audio workstation programs, and as a ReWire client. Image-Line offers its own VST and AU instruments and audio applications. FL Studio has been used by many notable hip hop and EDM producers, including Seven Lions, 9th Wonder, Cardo, Basshunter, Metro Boomin, Hit-Boy, Porter Robinson, Alan Walker, Madeon, Soulja Boy, Southside, Martin Garrix, Avicii, Imanbek, Lex Luger, Deadmau5, The Living Tombstone and Pi'erre Bourne. The previous default tempo of FL Studio (140 BPM) has been credited as being the reason grime music is generally produced around 140 BPM.
On December 18, 1997, Image-Line Software partially released the first version of FruityLoops (1.0.0), developed by Didier Dambrin.
In early 1998, Image-Line officially launched FruityLoops, when it was still a four-channel MIDI drum machine. Dambrin became Chief Software Architect for the program, and it quickly underwent a series of large upgrades that made it into a popular and complex digital audio workstation.[citation needed]
In mid-2003, Image-Line renamed FruityLoops to FL Studio, after the company's attempt to obtain a US trademark prompted concerns from Kellogg's and to improve the software's marketability.[failed verification] Software piracy was a concern for the company in its early years, and it took nearly 5 years for the company to turn a profit from users purchasing legitimate licenses.
On May 22, 2018, a macOS-compatible version of FL Studio was released.
FL Studio comes in several editions with different levels of functionality. The free trial version includes all of the program's features, all plugins, and allows users to render project audio to WAV, MIDI, MP3, FLAC and OGG. Projects saved while in demo mode, however, can only be opened once FL Studio and its plugins have been registered. Also, instrument presets cannot be saved and the audio output of some instruments is cut out momentarily every few minutes until the program and its plugins have been registered.
