Hey you guys... Which do you prefer? I personally like FL Studio because the pianoroll is so flexible, and the software is overall user friendly.
 
Reason. I think its an incredible piece of software. I've made some amazing drum sounds, and great textures with the 'stock' samples.
 
Neither being my prefered medium of choice, I'll stick by FL Studio, for it's ability to host every plugin out there more or less (especially the Buzz format machines), and it's ability to load as a plugin for hosts that don't offer Rewire (that's getting to be a rarity now though). I'll give Reason props for it's ultra flexible routing of audio and what not (of course king of flexibility in that department is still Logic's Environment).
 
Reason all day long. The insane amount of patching and combinator stuff u can do with reason that exceeds alot of full blown DAWs as far as sound design. I find fruity loops to be ass backwards in its design and hate the work flow. Piano roll is just a normal midi editor (Reason has the exact same thing) btw.
 
when i said frutyloop's piano roll is more flexible i meant it has more tools! and it does have more tools than reason's piano roll
 
i prefer fl studio, although i may be biased since i only gave reason a 20 minute try and have used fl studio for countless hours.
 
FL Studio!

Could not tolerate Reason,

Both are somewhat limited I M H O.
 
I have become so comfortable with Reason.
I tryed FL and was, well...... UnComfortable. Not that FL is bad or sub par just that I like the way I can work in reason over FL.

Reason + Ableton Live. There is no greater combination. See if there's a music store near you that has both on the same computer and play with it for a while. You won't believe the flexibility, sonic palette, and ease of use you are sitting in front of.
 
FL! i've been dinking in fruity loops for 2 years now so im sort of biased

Well said.

Exactly the conclusion I've come to after many years of computer music.

reason

reason,nuendo,rewire u cant loose midi is a plus with reason more powerful if u are a starter i would use fl than move on to reason
 
I've been using FLStudio for over 5 years now and it is incredible what you can do with it. The best thing I found about FL was the sidebar and all the tutorials I found there to help you out.
Love the piano roll, the playlist and all the cool channels you get with it.
The FPC and FL keys are awesome, soundfont player is easy to use, step sequencer is useless IMHO, channel grouping is REALLY usefull, event editor is simple, export to zip is a gem.
I just like the user interface and it does everything that I want it to do.
 
I recomend neither,they both have no room in a keyboard and module forum...I think they alright for the hobbyist but both are not great at all.
