Pleasingly, licenses are shared between both Mac and PC versions. The headline feature here is a native 64-bit Mac version, meaning that FL Studio can now be used on OS X/MacOS without the need for a clunky work-around. However, while it undoubtedly has legions of fans, historically FL Studio has been a PC-only affair.Īll that changes with FL Studio 20 (which, confusingly is actually version 13, but titled for the software’s 20th anniversary). Originally launched as FruityLoops - a title it’s often still colloquially known by - and inspired by Propellerhead’s much-loved Rebirth app, the loop-sequencer-turned-DAW holds a near-iconic status for a certain generation of producers, particularly in hip-hop and EDM realms.
