Full of potential

Pros

Honestly it does everything we wanted it to be. It is like having a full recording and mixing studio right at our fingertips, complete with instruments, controllers and effects. In short it has no limits.

Cons

I was new to the software and the interface wasn ot the easiest to navigate making the learning process a bit difficult. So to overcome this I joined a Mixing Academy to learn how to use it. But if you are experienced with recording studio software, this likely won't be an issue for you regarding the interface.

A dependable DAW for electronic music makers

The interface of FL Studio can be somewhat tricky to understand and customizing some shortcuts is not as simple as I expected it to be.

A complete let down

Pros

Well I have not used it yet because my license key isn't working. So I cannot say anything!

Cons

FL Studio itself might be great but their customer support has been terrible. I reached out because my license key did not work despite it being purchased and me receiving the key. And it has been over a week with no reply, so just be cautious as you might pay for the product and never get the support or service you expect. Overall this has been a huge letdown for me.
