Fruity Loops 10.5 Beta = Did a Bitwig . Added Clip View
Yes, FL.
The new 10.5 Patch adds support for Launchpad, APC40 and more.
You can 'pad' to automation for specific instruments too. I don't use it but someone showed me how much it could do (64bit support,multi-monitor,vst3,edit multiple midi layers, display waveform behind midi data..) in comparison to Ableton a few months ago.
Ok, the mixer and stock plugs are still fairly poo (apart from a couple) but I think for hands on creative production this may now be ahead of Ableton.
Playing with it now. Haven't seen the reaction on the Ableton forums but i imagine the usual suspect are calling for a law suit :P
I haven't used FL Studio in a few years since switching to Ableton, but that looks interesting. I assume you can also record your performance in FL Studio while playing. I didn't hear mention of it in the demo vid ... but then again I may have missed that point.
I didn't like the track though, it sounded so awful with all that compression. I suppose that is what kids like to do these days. It sounds like total ass.
Ok, now I feel better!
As I currently use FL10 I think I might like to try this but I'm not sure which controller would be best. I like the look of the Akai as it also has sliders for fading parts, which is nice.
