What does FL Studio mean in your current setup ?
It means I can create multi-track drum loops, music loops or even entire songs and dump them straight into Pro Tools for further mixing.
What are the advantages & disadvantages of using hard- & software ?
Analog verses Digital I guess, I can't see the point of using Digital hardware, except for maybe Pro Tools, or something really broken and old like a Casio SK1 which no-one will spend development money emulating. True analog stuff has a sound of its own and very few if any soft synths sound like the original units.
I am always impressed by these emulations first off. The VST Prophet 5 was a revelation till I compared it to the original unit. Okay, the layout is similar, but it doesn't sound the same. I like Fruity Loops as it is constantly evolving from ideas in the past, but with the future in mind, so there are several interesting twists in synthesis in there to play with from the off. Like the granular stuff and some of the plug-ins. They go a bit beyond emulation.
