Introducing FL Studio 9

FL Studio 9 is a complete software music production environment,
representing the culmination of more than 10 years of sustained &
focused development. FL9 is the fastest way from your brain to your
speakers.

What is FL9?

FL Studio is a full-featured, open architecture, music production
environment capable of audio recording, composing, sequencing and
mixing, for the creation of professional quality music. The FL Studio
philosophy is creative freedom:


Free your audio - Route any instrument to any mixer track. Each mixer
track can receive audio from any number of instruments, any number of
other mixer tracks and a soundcard input. Mixer tracks, in turn, can
send audio to any number of other mixer tracks and a soundcard output.
Create sub-mixes, effects chains or complex mixes. FL studioΓÇÖs
flexible architecture sets audio free.


Free your mind - Choose your preferred workflow, compose using the
step-sequencer or piano roll. Create in pattern or track mode, then
arrange your ideas in the free ΓÇÿpaletteΓÇÖ Playlist. The Playlist
presents timeline as a virtual ΓÇÿcanvasΓÇÖ where each Playlist track
can simultaneously hold any number of score, audio and automation
events. Now thatΓÇÖs freedom.

Instruments


Make virtually any sound - FL9 includes over 30 software synthesizers
covering acoustic/synthetic bass, electric guitar, multi-sampler tools
including piano & strings, general sample playback and beat-slicing
(With Rex 1 & 2 support).


Synthesis techniques - span subtractive, modelling, FM, RM, granular and
additive. With the addition of FL SynthMaker you can further create
& share your own FL instruments, effects & MIDI control
dashboards without the need to write basic code.


Open plugin standards - FL Studio supports all PC industry plugin
instrument standards including VSTi (1/2), DXi(1/2), Buzz and Rewire.
This means you can sequence with your favorite plugins and applications.


Audio Recording & Editing


Multi-channel audio inputs - With the ability to simultaneously capture
all the inputs on your audio-interface, FL Studio has the flexibility to
record a single vocalist, guitar or a full symphony orchestra.


Arranging audio - Audio can be arranged, with complete freedom in the
Playlist. Features include the ability to host an unlimited number of
audio recordings, time-stretching, pitch-shifting, beat-slicing,
cropping, editing and the re-arranging of audio with only a few mouse
clicks.


Edison - FL9ΓÇÖs audio capabilities are further enhanced with Edison,
the recording wave editor. Edison is an integrated audio editing and
recording tool with spectral analysis, convolution reverb, noise
reduction, loop-recording, loop-construction tools and more.

FL Studio supports WAV, MP3, OGG, WavPack, AIFF, and REX audio formats.

Sequencing

Compose and record your musical performances and ideas in the most logical way.


Pattern or track sequencing - You choose, record your musical
performances and ideas in the most logical way. FL Studio 9 can
simultaneously function as a pattern and track based sequencer. Reuse
patterns as Pattern Clips in the Playlist or record song-length
sequences, as desired.


Step sequencer or Piano roll - Scoring tools include FL StudioΓÇÖs
legendary Step-sequencer, one of the most advanced Piano rollΓÇÖs in any
software studio, event and multipoint automation envelopes. FL Studio
supports MIDI input, standard controller compatibility, and the ability
to simultaneously control multiple instrument channels from separate
controllers.

Arranging

FL Studio allows you to do what you want where and when you want.


Determine your own project design - In FL Studio 9, you decide how your
project will be laid out. Unlike the competition, FL9's Playlist is a
totally flexible and virtually unbounded workspace where Note Pattern,
Audio and Automation data can be arranged and edited to suit your
creative ideas and preferred workflow.

Mixing & Mastering

FL Studio provides all the tools you need to produce your tracks to high professional standards.


The mixer - FL9 includes a superb 104 track stereo track mixer that is
about precision, control and flexibility. The mixerΓÇÖs tracks each hold
up to 8 effects (VST, DX or FL's proprietary format). To create
sub-mixes or mixing chains of almost unlimited complexity, each mixer
track can be routed to any other mixer track, one of 4 dedicated 'send'
channels and or the Master track. Sends provide the ability to
sidechain inputs to multi-input effects plugins. Finally, each of the
mixer tracks can be routed to any output on your audio interface, now
thatΓÇÖs flexibility.


Effects - What about effects? FL Studio includes more than 40 effects
spanning maximization, limiting, compression, delay, distortion,
equalization (graphic & parametric), filtering, phasing, flanging,
chorus, vocoding and reverb. These have you covered for the creative
broad-brush effects, through to the minutia of the mastering process.


Open plugin standards ? FL Studio supports all PC industry plugin effect
standards including VST (1/2), DX(1/2), Buzz and Rewire. This means you
can mix with your favorite plugins and applications.
