The main UI view does a great job at giving you overall access to all the essential features the DAW has to offer, but there is only a limited amount of space available. We did notice one or two times that features aren't easily accessible if you don't know where to look for them. New users to FL Studio may need to spend an hour getting to grips with the interface and learning what tools are at their disposal. That said, getting used to running a DAW on mobile can be unwieldy until you're used to the smaller workspace, which is especially true if you're working with a device that has a smaller screen than newer phone models. The modern, clutter-free look greatly aids ease of use as options are quick to find, and the workspace never feels overwhelming. FL Studio models a significant portion of its UI after its real-world analog counterparts, creating instantly recognizable sections. We don't suspect that the FL Studio's interface will be difficult to understand for veteran music producers, yet, newcomers may struggle initially. You can then export your masterpiece as an m4a or wav file for immediate playback, or you can choose to export it as a midi file if you want to carry it over and import it to your desktop for further modification. Once understood, putting a song together is straightforward. Understanding the sequencer is the main hurdle standing in the way of creating an impressive track. You can then apply Reverb, various EQ options, filters, and more to your newly created track to get the desired effect. We were worried about this price tag, alongside in-app purchases, which we'll talk about later.įL Studio allows you to play directly on a virtual piano to perform a sequence or add that sequence step by step, and this includes using other instruments and drum machines. It's actually on the expensive side as far as phone apps are concerned. FL Studio Mobile condenses the plethora of tools available on the desktop version down into an easy-to-use interface on your mobile device.įL Studio isn't cheap. Beatmakers and music producers have been leveraging the desktop version of FL for numerous years.
