This porgram is a practical means for easy beatmaking for producers/beatmakers of any genre...whether you like to make hip hop beats, techno beats, or most anything else...only limits you to how you use it with your own knowledge. I have been told that it can be used with live instruments like guitars (?). Wouldn't know that for sure tho cuz i haven't tried that. It is easy to make a sampled hip hop beat within this program, that is what i really like about it. I don't need any additional programs such as acid or soundforge to make something sampled quickly that sounds decent. Both the fl slicer and the chop tool give you enough capabality to make classics with samples. The piano roll, where would u go wit out that. This makes it so that both your drums and instruments match seamlessly so that they don't seem to clash or loop outta pattern.

One thing which can be very frustrating about this program is that it doesn't let you preview soundfonts, meaning when you are searching through your library of sound you cannot click on a soundfont file to test it. This means that you must drag a soundfont into the step sequencer in order to hear it. This can be frustrating and though it is not much a problem, can seem time consuming when you are trying to find the right sound for a composed track. The program may seem hard at first for a beginner, many ppl believe that it is a bad program and limited but the truth is they just din't read up on it enough. There are verious tutorials that you can read on to learn about the programs total functionality.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
The sounds within it are very weak and lacking, synths in particular...however, there is something to be desired within the drums...some of the kicks and snares hold just what you need to have, but the synths (with the exception of some of the plug in synths and soundfonts from such as those found in sytrus) just don't cut it. This however does not matter as the program is very easy to integrate with vsts (virtual studio technology) which can be found for free from the internet or bought. Also, with a midi keyboard it is easy to control your sounds through the program as well as play sounds from a professional keyboard into it. The quality of sound itself is not much to be complained about...a good quality sound card will only help to strengthen your sound quality.
It's software...the only way it can go into disrepair is if you break your computer or it loses all its memory...which in that case your partially screwed. The program gives you lifetime updates, meaning if you go the the website flstudio.com you can upgrade the program for free
OVERALL OPINION
It costs next to nothing compared most other hardware and software, and yet it still allows you to carry out the same tasks and come out with the same product. The only thing that might be not to luv is the countless times that you have to point and click things as it is software. This is where I consider upgrading to hardware as it would feel funner to do lless pointing and clicking, at least for the purpose of sampling hip hop, or I may consider buying a akai mpd16 which allows you to punch pads that use midi to map out notes on your computer.
