Fire is its name, but will it be a warm hardware welcome to the loopy FL Studio world? You twisted fire starter

So it’s no surprise that Akai has developed a specific controller for the DAW – that is one large and happy audience to tap. Not surprising, given that it now includes all sorts of pro features, around 80 plug-in instruments and effects – but still retains the same ease of use it has become famous for.

However, as I saw when reviewing the latest version (20) of FL Studio a few months back, this DAW has arguably the largest userbase in the world thanks to makers Image-Line’s policy of offering free updates to the latest version since its first release from developer Didier Dambrin back in the late 90s.įL Studio 20 also now runs on a Mac as well as PC, so has become a great cross-platform choice for producers across the globe.
