Don't you agree with me? |
Well, they dont HAVE to, but it seems like Armin and Marco V chose the program they prefered and it was a good choice for them since they have made some great stuff with it :)
That doesn't mean it has to be a reference program for the next 40 years though, there are other great pieces of software out there ;) |

I'm a FL user and it's definitely a very good app, capable of producing excellent, very professional results. However it does have limits and I believe for most people, fully fledged sequencers like Cubase and Sonar offer more possibilities if they intend to go totally 100% 'Ferry Corsten' professional. However the argument as to whether FL can exist in a professional setup rests with the producer in question and if it suits their way of working.
I don't see the point in upgrading from FL Studio to Reason tbh. They are both software studios and although Reason is more expensive, I think this is because Reason comes with better instruments and effects initially. FL Studio is VST compatible (Reason isn't) and after purchasing it you can look to third party companies for better quality stuff if you want it. So they're very much on par. |

Try not to forget all the other stuff. Like tons of VST's as well. |

What does cubase have over FL?
You say fully-fledged sequencers... so far the only thing I don't like about FL is the inability to reset the playlist grid to follow a measure that has been moved ahead or behind by a bar or a beat... and the inability to cut patterns in half. Other than that, I can't see anything for want.
Routing could be improved, but I can't see it happenning. The infrastructure's not there. There could be workarounds, but I think the creators are ... stubborn.
[edit]
And I'm not trying to be contrary, I know I improve with every new working environment. New interfaces help you become more resourceful. |

Rave eJay is better than eJay by far
it has 192k sampling over infinite virtual tracks, AND it runs on LINUX |
