FL Studio UNDERrated ? Abelton OVERrated ?
FL Studio UNDERrated ? Abelton OVERrated ? Posted on: 15.10.2011 by Hillary Razdan I was talking to some friends about production they all use abelton and i use FL, and i got some slack for using FL studio. So the next day i was using ableton trial and after 8 hours locked in my room and getting a handle on abelton i believe abelton is overrated , there so much you have to get like the synths that cost $130 a piece. And i cant say because ive been using FL studio because i started producing a week ago. What do you guy believe sould try harder with abelton or stick FL studio.I dont know about you guys but FL is like looked down apon i believe , well thats just me rambling . | |
Random X 15.10.2011 | Agrees with lethal pizzle! Though I got to tell you, you shouldn't say something is over- or underrated, just because an application will not fit to your creative workflow/process. If FruityLoops meets your requirements better, it just states something about your workflow. For me Ableton fits best to my creative workflow. (And I have tried Fast Tracker, and a few other trackers, for three years (in the 90ies), 4 months FruityLoops, 1 year Reason, 2 year Cubase and Ableton since 2004.) |

Kayce Mesia 15.10.2011 | I'm sure they both have their own advantages. Just sayin'. Although I've never used FL before. :/ |
Loralee Erban 15.10.2011 | I prefare fl studio I play and produce house and electro house so its perfect for that (convinced thats it was designed for) Ive used: logic, cubase, ableton, reason, fl studio and samplitude in the past and believe ableton has the steepest learning curve and even my music tech teacher didnt believe it was that amazing (could do the same with all other programs) these days I use fl studio for edm and samplitude music studio for recording live music and pro tools the odd time for mastering. The believe I liked about fl studio when I started was you can get stuck straight in.... ableton allways seemed too much of a pain to setup to get it working but I guess its down to personal pref. samplitude is simple to use for recording stuff since theres not soo much going on, less buttons to press and less stuff to distract... I find a lot of the top programs try to include everything but it makes people get distracted finding new function while halfway through a masterpeice. |
Aleta Hartzler 15.10.2011 | ive tango'ed with both and i believe Ableton is the better one. theres tons more possiblilities and tools inside ableton. and not everything you have to pay for. the Ableton website gives out free sound kits all the time, and theres dozens upon dozens of free VSTs out there. FL Studio is quicker because its less. theres less to learn and less to use and less everything really. Ableton takes a while, months even, to master fully. i personally have probably 3 Gb of drum samples ive never used mainly because i havent had the chance. also, it looks better. |
