    Great video! I especially like the bit about FL's chaotic workflow...it's totally true ; ) I have used all 3, everytime I use FL I learn something new, Ableton is much easier to understand! I learnt how to make tunes in Ableton without watching any RUclips videos or help from others...FL Studio is a bit more illogical and it is very confusing at the start when you have patterns and there are tracks, channels and mixer inserts...but when you actually understand it, I find it the most fun to use, and it's great to have the regular free updates with extra sounds and instruments. It's best to avoid the fruity edition of FL as it only lets you use patterns and not samples...and patterns can be a bit annoying sometimes ; ) I don't really agree with people who think that FL is for beginners, it's probably the most confusing and is more complex than Ableton and possibly also Logic. I would recommend Ableton for most people...but if you have mastered FL, there is no going back to Ableton ; )

    • @majkoo
      @majkoo  Год назад +2

      I actually started off in FL! first time i opened ableton (before i had ever worked in fl studio or any other software) it looked super confusing so i just closed it right back😂. the second time i tried using ableton i already had maybe a year and a half of fl studio experience and also premiere pro experience, which believe it or not is more similar to ableton than fl is to ableton in some aspects, so it was much easier to get the hang of! nowadays i use all 3 but my main DAW still remains FL

    • @majkoo
      @majkoo  8 месяцев назад

      i think that xln audio has a drum plugin, but i'm not sure if you're able to make it play on its own or you have to do everything with midi inputs. For drum grooves i've always made my own if i wanted some specific sounds and placement in time and the stereo space, or used loops if i could do with something more generic, so the drummer track hasn't been a feature that i've used besides testing

      hey! for lessons you can check my website which is in the description and from there you can contact me. as for the export problem, your vocals are probably just louder than the beat in the DAW, so you should put them in a mixer track and bring their voulme down. It's always good practice to put all of your sounds into channels so that they don't sit on the master channel as that could affect how they sound based on mixer routing and effects. Hope this was useful!

      yeah I haven’t encountered many CPU issues tbh, but I’d assume that it’s because live maxes out at 2048 buffer size as opposed to FL, which can have a buffer of 4096, offering more processing power at the cost of higher latency

    Honestly, one of these days I wanna do a cursed arrangement challenge and try to arrange a full song in FL in one Track. I mean, people already do their songwriting phase in one pattern then separate the patterns by channel, so now the next step is to arrange in one track lol
    Edit: Also, the reason why the right-click to make automation clips thing can't work in third-party plugins is because the third-party will already have a function assigned to the right-click that is different from the drop-down menu Image-Line has across their software.

  • @tyberprod
    @tyberprod 3 месяца назад +1

    First of all, great video. I used Logic and FL Studio, Reaper , Cubase and so on... so I think the best Midi editor is the logic one. You can do everything you want with the mouse. With FL Studio I have to change the tool for every little step. This freaks me out every time (same for cubase and reaper). As I like the ultimate flexibility with FL Studio it drives me crazy how it handles audio recording. Putting it into a sampler and then it is just one more channel please come on, why you FL Studio guys do not have managed it till today(Majkoo wich you did not talk about it). Yeah I know there is track mode but it does not apply to audio just midi. With logic I was able to create the fastest workflow. Every other DAW I just.. doooohhh ... why , why is that... regarding rendering times.. who cares about that? Totally not of interest. The most important thing is if you can do a recording without latency so you do not have to edit the samples your own or Midi. Logic is far superior over this. Cubase took ages to manage it, FL Studio magically can do it by it self after some waiting time(do some recording and it magically happens, at least with the latest version I did 3 three songs with it), and logic has a knob for it. For Reaper you have to use 2 extensions that are not maintained. wow. While FL Studio has great Stock plugins , really I love them, as a DAW it is not suitable for me, as it is to complicated to handle the project. you get lost so fast. And that is the advantage of logic, you can do the same stuff and get leaded without having brain cramps all over. (Using the same automation for another track or whatever really does not count in a real recording, why you should copy it an use it for another something) And putting the whole song into one track, meh maybe with a brain chip. And for FL Studio , always remove the stock limiter and use a decent one. For Ableton it was always like this for me: it uses a horizontal workflow but I was used to a vertical one and never got this. So just preference. If it is about the money logic ist the best. Tons of features, samples and you were complaining about vintage or whatever you named it plugins. It is all there. Just look in the deeps of the plugin menus. FL Studio is second. All other DAW manufactures , please rethink. There is one thing about logic and samples , I use the Finder approach, but only because I did not figure out how get my samples into the library. :-( . I would love to use the great FL Studio plugins into logic but the FL Studio as VST does not work for me. To laggy to complicated. So I sample it if I need to. And at the end of the day. Try out what works best for YOU! Logic is my first thing to use. And FL Studio guys. Please , please make audio recordings and editing like in logic. I just do not get why I need a pattern based recording of a vocal of guitar or whatever instrument. Whit all the hassle.. I know great music was made buy people with FL Studio but they must have great patience and be able to endure pain and suffering ;-) and a brain chip :-D

    • @majkoo
      @majkoo  3 месяца назад

      hahah this has to be the longest comment I've got on a video! I'd say that FL has undoubtedly the best MIDI editor IMO, just because you can create and delete notes just with ur mouse without having to activate any pencil tool or that kinda deal (it just happens automatically so long as you had the pencil or paint brush selected last). For automation copying, idk about actual acoustic recording but when it comes to synthesis and layers you oftentimes want to have the same exact curve on multiple parameters (for example, I want the distortion AND bitcrush to go up to 69.696969% at the exact same time with the exact same curve). Might seem like an obscure example but it's actually quite common while sound designing, at least in my experience. I don't get what you mean by recording in patterns tho? While I basically never record anything because I don't work with vocalists (yet) the few times i've had to record anything the clips just appeared in the playlist after being recorded.

You dont need to press command click to add notes.. you can select the pencil tool and write notes exactly the same as in FL.. the one thing I do like about FL is the key color coding system .. and it actually is overall easier to use than Logics..

    not a bad video overall, but you seem pretty uninformed when it comes to Logic tbh. PLUGINS: logic comes with so much epic stuff; Compressors (amazing workflow switching between different versions (digital, opto, fet, vca...) and their vintage EQ collection (incl. a Neve 1073 strip and a Pulteq) - these are all pro grade; Alchemy =🐐, but you get some other good instruments & a huge library of Apple Loops (hotkey O). Tbh, especially adjusted for price, Logic should've won that category, because only Live Suite can compare and that's almost 3x the price. MIXING: No professional engineer will mix on Live or FL, but plenty do on Logic. You didn't even show Logic's epic mixer view, which will give you a nice overview of every channel's FX chain, a miniature view of the channel EQ and a meter for compression. Also there is a Plugin Manager, where you can fav as many go-to VSTs as you want, and then you can always access those from the top layer of the Plugin menu.

    • @majkoo
      @majkoo  Год назад +1

      didn’t know that about the favourites in the plugin manager, gonna have to try that out myself! as for the mixer I’m aware of the large mixer view but i didn’t show it because (this may sound stupid) i always mix on the go as a lot of other producers too, so i don’t really take advantage of it. definitely useful for mixing enigneers tho! the 70gb sample library is nice but to be completely honest i deleted it after finishing my logic install like 2 years ago because it’s just too much space on my ssd taken up by “general purpose” loops (i personally don’t even use loops except for percussions and ambiance). i’ll explore logic’s other plugins too! they seem great :) this was mostly bias from my personal workflow and therefore perspective, but definitely a bit of misinformation as well! thanks for commenting!

    I use all three of these. I’d have to say the Logic Mixer is better than you described. Having to search for plugins is a pain in the ass, but you can setup favourite folder. The stock plugins and instruments in Logic are probably the best out of the three. I’ve tried doing a mix with the same tracks, but using the equivalent stock plugins in each and Logic sounded the best, FL was second and Ableton was third. I love Glue Compressor, Saturator, and Drum Buss, but Logics Multiple stock vintage compressors, saturator/distortions, and Phat Effects actually sound better. For songwriting, FL or Ableton for me. I love Ableton’s convenience and easy workflow. Mixing, Logic is by far better, especially with how their mixer looks and works.

    In my eyes, FL is barely considered a DAW, it's a glorified drum loop program. Its the Apple product of DAWs as in its used by everyone, and locks anyone who's gotten used to the pattern based workflow from using literally any DAW. It does Apple better than Garage Band, a literal Apple App

    • @majkoo
      @majkoo  8 месяцев назад

      for sounds, download sample packs from sites like cymatics (they have plenty) or get a sounds subscription on splice for virtually infinite sounds (although that's a paid option). I don't know many people at all who use stock sounds, due to them being generic and not fitted for specific genres of music. For instruments, use VSTs like Vital, u-he's free plugin and some more free option or look into paid stuff. Once again there isn't that many people using stock plugins, although that's mostly for the instruments (and there's still a significant portion of people who use at least some kind of stock plugin, although it's pretty rare to not use any external vsts.) For effects it's a whole different story: third party plugins definitely improved my workflow and sound, but you could do almost everything with stock options.

    can tell this guy uses ableton lol (edit: huh guess im wrong lol, this seemed biased towards ableton and against logic. )
    imo:
    1. (A) ableton has the best workflow for production with a super low friction interface and good stock plugins, but is expensive. frictionless workflow with the perfect balance of power and simplicity imo, best option for most people if you can afford it and like the simple UI. logic has more detailed mixing and far better audio control, but this is unnecessary in most cases and the ability to get super granular with your editing can break your flow, focusing on getting a perfect cut vs. finishing your mix.
    2. (B+) logic's tougher to get used to, and still has it's workflow limitations, but is much more powerful than the other two, especially for mixing and audio. it's like pro tools without having to jump out the window whenever you lose your project.
    3. (B-) fl studio's drum machine gives it the workflow for beatmakers, but is terrible for mixing and audio. logic for beginners or beatmakers who don't use audio or mix.
    fl (beatmaking) and ableton (audio) are better for beginners and workflow.
    with some practice, logic is by far the best for mixing and audio and has pretty much the same/better workflow as fl.
    could be wrong, but i'm pretty sure martin garrix switched from fl to logic for the mixing and audio control.
    most other edm artists use ableton (illenium, chainsmokers, marshmello, etc)

      @@_nik I agree with a lot of things said in this comment, but FL’s workflow is NOT similar to logic in any way. I’ve actually used logic a few times since this video for mixing, and it definitely has the best mixer (A+) if i was to rate it again. That being said, its workflow is definitely the worst out of the 3 and is very different from fl’s workflow (ableton and logic work in similar ways, while fl is just…fl, but a lot faster than logic)
