I’m watching in particular for Arturia and Novation hardware support – maybe even doing some myself. There’s already some action around scripting on the forum. This means you can skip the mouse interface entirely and focus on hardware workflows. The big feature here is clearly MIDI Scripting. But this is one major shortcoming resolved. FL has been a rock-solid plug-in host for me (on Windows, at least I haven’t tried the Mac version). Plus, finally, plug-in latency compensation applies to automation. (There’s a contest on now, so please go win it and then PayPal me some beers, if you will. It’s up to you whether you use this for lameness or awesomeness it’s clearly capable of both. Drag and drop stuff in and you can make your own music videos. Oh plus the crazy ZGameEditor Visualizer, which is an entire game engine stuck inside the DAW, just got a major overhaul. Something kind of stupid but still witty. I want to make a reference to the Buggles here. ZGameEditor packs powerful visualization tools inside the DAW, via a built-in 3D game engine. (Cough, ahem.)Īnd there are powerful note envelopes in the Patcher, FL’s recent graphical tool. It lets you script with MIDI controllers using Python – in the program, with debugging, so basically what we wish Ableton Live had done all along but still doesn’t.
