Interfaces aren't and shouldn't be static environments. Lamenting an old version of FL when every update they bring has provided significant improvement is just exposing a lack of willingness or a lack of ability to adapt and trust in their work. Bless the FL developers for surviving decades of idiots talking about panning law, phantom audio quality issues, or failing to understand gain, I love you all at FL so much. Also the V21 tease looks great...

[pvddaymian]

Fl studio should add a fl 11 theme too fl 21 that would be nice!

Love that you did a video about this... Really shows you're paying attention to dialogues and concerns among producers

So in conclusion, people don't know how mixing and mastering works... Not very suprising...

FL studio is SUCH a great program, made by very skilled engineers both audio engineers and graphical designers, to make the program be able to be understood by virtually anyone with zero DAW knowledge.

This has made a huge variety of people that don't even know how to read musical notes, to grab the program and start making music. And that is good because it allows more creativity to come from a bigger variety of people, but also it has exposed many people that have no knowledge of how to mix and master their audio properly. It is those people who will complain about a DAW's ability to do anything, not the professionals.

I was one of those people that thought 11 was better than 20 initially. This was really eye opening. Great video! Now if they can make recording audio as simple as other DAW, we’d have a real win!

[darrenirwin]

I've had flstudio since fruity loops days and love its simplicity and ability to get complex dynamic results. I will be a customer for life.

[SilkEclipse]

Never knew this was a claim people had... lol

[uamee]

9:37 wait a minute, that's illegal. haha wish this was in the latest beta.

[AziDoesQuestionableThings]

checking comments of similar vids, there are STILL people claiming that 808s feel 'heavier' or beats sounds 'cleaner', and it still frustrates me. thanks for clearing things up il, you're a great company.

[XDizzleMusic]

Thank you for finally addressing this, I have always suggested staying up to date with new versions on my channel🙌🔥

[railpressureflip]

Holy shit, this whole time I thought people were joking about 11 being better than 20. Now I realize there's a whole conspiracy theory behind it. Damn.

[DaBaSoftware]

Great vid. Never actually heard anyone making this comparison. Been using FL studio since we used to call it by its full name, and it's always seemed to get better, cleaner, and easier to use with each update.

[OzgunOfficial]

Thanks for being the best DAW out there for years. 🔥🔥🔥

[_TheViewer_]

A question I’ve been asking, good we have Image-Line !

[PianoScoreVids]

Savant uses FL Studio 11 although we have all the new versions ^^ I always love this passage on the interview site on fl:

"I work FAST, FL Studio is the only DAW that can keep up with me. My ideas are like a rain storm, like billions of musical raindrops falling from my brain, FL Studio helps me catch the most amount of ideas before the storm is over so I can give water to everyone; if they need it."

[CONFLAGRO]

One of the best feuters FL 11 had was the super simple, organized and handy chanel rack. You could do everything much smoother. I really miss it. I hope they make un update with the chanel rack, to be able to choose the old or new version.

[EdgeOfPanic]

After getting used to FL Studio 20 I've never looked back to the old 11 version. FL 20.x brings so many nice new features en functions to the table.

[zaketenyu]

The reason I like v11 is because it looks SO MUCH BETTER, v21 looks depressing, so please make a v11 theme <3

[prodigalretrod]

I used FLStudio since v4, but opted not to upgrade beyond 11 because I mostly just use FLStudio to make and export patterns for mixing in another DAW, and I found the old pattern playlist more efficient for my needs, ie. rapidly making a rough arrangement and switching between patterns easily.

[Trancelistic]

Thanks for listening<3

FL rocks!
