so many people bitch about fruityloops I would like to hear valid reasons why it is inferior. and I would like to take the time to discuss this logically. because I honostly don't think anyone can give me a honost to God good reason.

Here, Here!
Such a shame people don't take it seriously. Sure it has a silly name and a childish interface, but yeah. Great Sequencer! :)

yeah, it's the name and the look. but honostly it has a hell of alot more features than reason hands down. read the facts.
reason = no vst or dx plug ins OR instruments. fuck that.

amen. you feel trapped in the program. just writing 'songs that sound like they were made with reason' I can spot them with my ear.

reason can be useful. I know a kid that makes idm stuff with it that sounds good. but I didn't like it all. just personal.

big problem for fruityloops (and i only use FL) is the real-time playback sound quality and the pitch changer in the integrated sampler + the "playlist" as a sequencer, other than that i think it's very powerfull
but i hate it, when i render a track, to come back to fruity and reajust all parameters so that it sounds fine elsewhere
thing is, it's a very creative program, very easy to lay a track down with a few samples and vst's

most of the "fruityloops is crap" speak comes from leetists that feel like picking on people that have only started making music, or are anoyed that people can make some real quality stuff in floops,
also, because the program is user firendly, they think that people who are stupid must use it,
it's a music making program, that's it, nothing more nothing less,
jeskola buzz is still better though ;)

honostly people think the sound quality is bad but thats because they aren't using it right. I used to think it was bad but then as I progressed I would check things I made in other programs to things I made in fruityloops and they were identical whereas before I could hear a difference. it's how you use it.

jeskola buzz is great but to me it's so hard to use.
there is nothing I can't do with floops and cool edit.

although, being that you can use any jeskola gear inside of fruityloops why not use fruityloops instead of jeskola?

Flea uses floops and his stuff is awesome.
I've never used it myself though, so I don't know.

Because Buzz gear is written for Buzz and a lot of it doesn't work properly in floops, or not at all (plus some devs have put safeguards in their machines so they won't work in floops - there's been some bad blood over the adapter, I won't go into the details).
As for myself - I haven't worked with floops enough to really judge its quality, but coming from Buzz I just couldn't stand the UI. If I decided to have another look at it (not all that likely, considering the price - I don't like warezing things that I'm actually going to use), I'd probably use it as a VSTi only.

I've never enjoyed fruity loops, but now my mc_303 is messed up, I might give it another go. God I need to get some hardware.
