Bah!
There are enough pro's out there who use it, or at the very least made their breakthrough tracks on it before moving on to other things.
People moan about sidechaining on Floops but there are ways around it. Twisted Lemon plug in, admittedly only runs four instances but it works well enough.
Also worth mentioning that side chain on Cubase isn't exactly plain sailing either, at least in earlier versions.
A long time ago Icone shared a floops track with me and I was surprised to find out how many of the package tools he was using and some of the sounds he was getting out of them were just amazing.
It's never about the tools that you use if the tools themselves are up to the job. In other words, there are plenty of things that can be used if you know how to get the best out of them.
'Always outnumbered,never out gunned' was written on Reason. Can't fault Reason either. Re-Wire is another stroke of genius, and there are some good tools in Reason.
A friend of mine a few years ago made a house track on some freebie application by chopping samples up, plus a few freebit VSTs and a bit more. Some name DJ (Can't remember who) got to hear it and put it forward for a Ministry of Sound compilation, admittedly the track didn't make it in the end but it was good enough to be taken into account because he knew what he was doing.
I think what the original poster is getting at is 'Can he make pro sounding tracks using Floops or does he need to buy something different?' The answer is yes, if you know how to use it properly.
Moving to a more expensive DAW is not going to get you signed or discovered if you don't know how to use it. in, out as they say.
Far too much emphasis is placed on tools and techniques these days and not enough time is spent discussing good song writing skils.
All DAWs have plus and minus points. You don't even need amazing VSTs.
I think for the totally computer based musician who possibly has limited musicianship but has good ideas and understanding, it will do fine. Some of the other DAWs do admittedly work better with hardware.

Alot of people around here who talk about what DAW is best, what hardware is best, what technique is best, probably cannot even write a melody that isn't c major or a minor.
edit: they probably can't even write a melody, they are making trance afterall. and trance is notoriously 4-to-8-bar-progressions-of-random-chords-in-C-major |
