Think about it… someone willing to go to the effort to illegally crack software and distribute it is unlikely to be the most honest person in the world. But if you are openly using an illegal version of their software you will not get any help from them. There’s also a huge on-line community of FL Studio users in the Image Line forums and elsewhere online, including some great Facebook groups. If you’re not using a legitimate version of the software you will not be eligible for support, and when your version plays up or stops working, you’ve got nowhere to turn. When you buy FL Studio from Image-Line you also become eligible for full and immediate online technical support, as well as having access to the latest software updates and bug-fixes. There are a number of reasons for this, as follows.

And I would absolutely recommend that anyone intending to use FL Studio seriously does the same. When I decided I wanted to have a proper go at computer based music I saved up the money to buy FL Studio from Image-Line. I just played around with FL studio for a bit of fun. But back then I was completely new to computer based music and had no idea what I was doing. Thinking back, it’s almost certain that was a cracked version as I just clicked it and it worked, without any registration that I can recall. It’s also, however, a very popular DAW to crack and it’s sadly all too easy to get your hands on a dodgy (read ‘illegal’) copy…Īdmittedly, my own first copy of FL Studio, many years ago, was on a hard-drive full of software and samples that a friend let me borrow. It’s my DAW of choice for a number of reasons. FL Studio is a hugely popular DAW, and rightly so.
