Anyone using FL Studio 3 on the ipad Do you like it?
I would love to hear what the community has to say
Comments
I do use it on iPad (and iPhone) and I think it's really fun and very capable. The onboard sounds and synths are top notch and the single page interface makes for quick work, for track editing and building up multitrack compositions. The instrument rack approach - in which synths and sample instruments can be stacked with themselves and each other to create new sounds - is a sound design gold mine.
There are things to tweak yet, but they don't keep me away.
It more of a sound generator for my than anything. I can create great drum kits and sounds then record them into audio share for later. Keyboard is cool. Everything else is just blah.
great feed back
It works pretty great for sound generation and such. However, anytime I want to import audio into a project, it crashes. This happens on the iPhone and the iPad, and I really wish to god this would be fixed already so I can have proper autoducking on the iPhone.
Are you using iTunes or the PC plug-in?
If I was still using FL Studio on the PC Desktop I would probably use it a lot more. But despite FL Studio being my favorite DAW, I just can't get myself to break out the PC to make music any more. I don't see that it has anything really over Gadget other than that TBH.
The other reason I don't use it so much any more is Troublemaker. When FLM3 first came out I went ape over transistor bass. But then @brambos stole the spotlight and I have had little motivation to get back into FLM's somewhat limited little world.
In response to the OP:
Nope, and I'm still listed as a beta tester (though I don't have it installed or test it anymore). I have been extremely disappointed with the direction that app has gone (although I can understand some of the reasons why). It doesn't host any instrument apps! Sounds all have to be built-in or sampled). The sounds are good, granted, but that was a really big turn-off!! The second thing that bothers me, is the florescent-colored gui. I feel like eating sherbet every time I load it up!! Next, I told them from the very beginning that it was WAY too easy to accidentally move clips within tracks around and mess them up. There needs to be something changed there--either locking clips from moving, or better yet, having a couple of seconds more delay between touching the clip and it moving under your finger. In the end, without the ability to host apps, this app is nothing more than what nanoStudio, Caustic, iDS-10, Figure, or Auxy is......a stand alone groove box. If you are OK with a closed-ended groove box, then it might be worth checking out.....
P.S. I'll probably lose my beta tester status over this post, but what I'm saying is the truth.
I love your honesty and thats what keeps me from opening the app
I'm actually using iPad and using Audiocopy/Paste in order to import bounced audio from other sources, or at least I've been trying to, lol. The only bad thing I've experienced with the PC Plug-In is the inability to produce music in the palm of my hand given a laptop is not an iPhone.![:D :D](https://forum.loopypro.com/resources/emoji/lol.png)
When I open a DAW on iOS it's usually FLM3 because the 909 drums sounds are terrific (and they're actually called "909" so I don't have to hunt around for which "cleverly" named drumkit is the 909) and the GMS synth (IAP) has the smoothest filter I've found on iOS. I can control its cutoff filter from my EWI's 7-bit MIDI with NO ALIASING whatsoever. Unfortunately I'm having problems with MIDI recording which Image-Line has been very responsive about, though they can't recreate the problem on their end, so I can't use it as I would really like.
I like the sounds and the workflow, but the GUI is really garish. I know it shouldn't, but that stops me using it. It sounds good but looks horrible (IMHO).
It's getting better slowly.
But I still get the feeling it's a pc app ( the plugin) rolled out onto touch devices the annoying thing about how easy it is to accidentally nudge a clip out of place being an example of why I think that.
I use it sometimes. In my opinion it has the best piano roll on iOS, fastest to work in. I prefer Gadget to FLM3 but I like the effects in FLM3 more than the ones in Gadget and obviously the piano roll too. The weirdest workflow thing in FLM3 is when you record midi on a loop it makes a new track lane for every new loop of recorded midi, which would be all good if you could simply merge them but you can't, or at least not simply.
The main thing I am looking for is proper import of external audio files. That should be in the next update. The last I knew they had completely rewritten the core software and it's been holding up the update. I find that the workflow to be very quick and smooth. I find that I can go in a lot of different directions that I might've not thought of otherwise. I think it all depends on what your approach is. The GUI doesn't bother me at all. And once I knew where everything was it was really easy to jump around and get things done. I don't run into a lot of barriers other than that I need to use audio copy paste to import audio files.
I make bits in it sometimes and am holding on to it in the hope/belief that it's a work in progress that will indeed progress further...
Just the opposite for me. As a longtime FL PC user since v3.1, opening FLM3 and seeing that FL-gray background is like seeing an old friend.
OK, you've convinced me .... I've downloaded it again and I'll give it another go...
FLM 3 was just updated, and holy shit! It no longer crashes upon Audiocopy import. (Okay, so it crashes if the Audiocopy app isn't open in the first place, which is weird, but it works the next time, so it works at 90%.)
Good to know. Someone just the other day on the Image Line forums was asking about importing without using a PC/laptop. I don't think AudioCopy is listed as an option in the User Manual. At least, I didn't see it.
I'll avoid Audio Copy (hate it) and just Open In from AudioShare. Works for me.
Well, despite it being implented since the original FLM3 release, it really wasn't a feature given how it'd crash FLM any time I wanted to import anything.
iTunes was the only option, but now it works. I FINALLY have an iPhone app with autoducking and parametric EQ that works. Spinnin Records here I come (sarcasm).
