WHAT'S NEW


FL Studio 20.7.3

• Toolbar peak meter - Now indicates potential clipping even when the audio driver doesn't require it.
• Playlist - Includes several workflow enhancements:
  • Make unique Clips - The Edit > Make unique option now applies to all Clip types and selected Clips.
  • Audio Clip source changes - The Start Point and Trim Edits are now preserved by holding (Shift) when using the 'Clip Menu > Select source channel' function.
  • Consolidating Playlist tracks - The Tools > Export all Playlist track groups option groups audio for Parent and all Sub-Tracks into a single WAV file, reducing the number of (potentially) unnecessary rendered tracks
• Menus - All check (selectable) items now support Right-Click to check or uncheck them without closing the menu.
• Channel Rack - Indicator shows when a drag-and-drop Plugin is to be inserted between Channels.
• Revised unlock system - Changes have been made to make it clearer how to unlock FL Studio from Trial. A new Unlock Panel better shows the options.
• Projects - FL Studio now shows a file-size warning when saving a project with large Edison instances.
• Performance monitor - Moved CPU percentage column closer to the plugin name.
• MIDI Scripting - Added a functions to:
  • Select a Channel exclusively - selectOneChannel.
  • Work with Pitch Bend range - channels.Channels_SetChannelPitchm, channels.Channels_SetChannelPitch.
  • Get Channel and Mixer plugin information - plugins.isValid(), plugins.getPluginName(), plugins.getParamCount(), plugins.getParamName(), plugins.getParamValue(), plugins.getParamValueString().
• Command line export - Added batch export to .zip file to the command line options. Allow single file instead of a folder for MIDI export.
• AKAI FIRE (pad colors) - Improved coloring of scales when using different root notes.
