Hey,

A couple of months ago I bought the 800 and something € version of FL studio and it worked fine...................for a week. After that I started experiencing very frequent crashes, entire projects just getting currupted and never opening again, plugin manager takes literally up to 40 mins to open obstucting the screen because the plugin manager window always stays on top of other windows, it completely crashes EVERY time I click on "more plugins" and loading projects takes too long on a high end computer. And on top of all that image line refused to give me a refund.
So I'm asking you guys , how can an almost 900€ piece of software be this bad ?

PS. If you can give me suggestions on FL studio alternatives I would appreciate it.

EDIT: I'm not trying to hate on FL studio. I love it to death and that's why I have stayed so long with it. I have tried a lot of good DAWs and I think it's the greatest one.

Fl has some shitty copy protection, try using the cracked version with removed protection to see, if performance will normalize or get another DAW - Reaper is good and very cheap, too bad that you can't use FL's plugins in other DAWs without buying them as vsts, most of them are pretty good, I think.

 

i have had fl studio since version 7, free lifetime updates and altho i dont use it as much as i should it has NEVER crashed on me, must be your system, maybe you have corrupt windows, do sfc /scannow and chkdsk

 

I bought FL studio 16 years ago, never payed for update and can count on one hand the amount of times it crashed or had any problems with plugins. but if you really did buy it you can ask in the forums, they have excellent support.

 

Your Problem Is Windows & Mabye System

 

Fl studio is the only thing on my computer that behaves like that. Theres no issues with my computer

 

Look In Fl some plugins you need to search and take a lot of time Load to find them, for example Waves Complate

 

I understand but it used to be quick before and then it just broke

 

Did you ask in the FL forums? (I suggest trying a different title tho)

 

Does that not imply that there is something wrong with your system? What changes have been made that was not made when it worked as it should?

 

I reinstall windows and all of my software every 2-3 months and I generally take good care of my system

 

Long time FL user and legit owner here. Problem sounds like some type of driver issue. What audio interface do you use? Do you have anti-virus running? Are all your plugins legit? Are you using 32bit bridged plugins? Did you make a template with a ton of plugins in it? You could be using some plugins that FL doesn't like too much on your system. Are you using any ilok plugins? If so is the ilok attached to a USB hub?


Also your title is more attention seeking than "Hey, I need some help".

 

sounds like you're using Windows

 

No not all of my plugins are legit but my fl is. I'm using a behriger umc204HD. Antivirus is Windows defender with malware bytes, yes some of my plugins are bridged, I start from scratch every time so no templates.

 

Of course I use Windows dude. I'm not an apple retard

 

Why does FL studio suck so much ? Well, I could say because it's not REAPER, but honestly, it's because it's not REAPER.

No, seriously, this is strange. If it worked before it is probable that you messed up an installation, accidentally, otoh, if you have so much experience with reinstalling everything this is unprobable, but at least it's a bit more probable.
It sounds indeed like a failed installtion of the drivers or some Microsoft stuff.

 

Does anyone have a link to a cracked version, maybe that's gonna work better ? Also are corrupted fpl files recoverable ?

 

I have tried REAPER but it didn't work for me. Honestly fl is my favorite. It reminds me of my Ex.

 

It doesn't work for me, so it must be crap, QED.

Some people don't deserve support. Particularly the people who can't get support and then dump a shite trip thinking it's the quickest way to get what they want.

Almost reminds me of Studio One.
