Anyone upgrade their FL to the “all plugins” edition?
I’m thinking of finally pulling the trigger on it and especially since I’m hoping to get into production (and hopefully get it running on linux, which from what I hear is soon), wondering if people got extra use out of them.
I’m on signature as well. The only native plugins I still use regularly are Sytrus and Harmor, and Harmor is from the all plugins bundle so I paid for that one separately. Most of the other stuff the all plugins bundle brings is either really niche (ogun and sakura), old/outdated (poizone is like a precursor to Harmor), or I have long since started using a 3rd party version from Izotope/Arturia/etc.
The all plugins bundle has grown significantly since I last looked at it, and there are a lot of cool ones in there that I don’t get on signature (their 303 and Juno emulations, the new bass sculpting plugin, a better reverb, etc).
I don’t know about running stuff on Linux, though I would point you to airwindows as everything they make is free and runs on Linux. I would say if you are looking to go to Linux and Image Line actually port everything over, then it might be the easiest way to get up and running. However, when they went Mac I remember that was not a smooth ride, and they still don’t have certain plugins working on Mac. I would wait and see how the Linux rollout goes before committing the money if Linux is your main goal.
Haha well fortunately I’m from the stone age (FL 10) and the wine database says I could have a “platinum” experience. The worst I’ve heard is the graphical end is a little more complex for wine to sort out.
I made the switch overall to Linux in January in my home setup, barring music. I took several years away from it just because of life, but considering gaming has worked so well I’m getting curious.
I’m just curious how much use people get out of the full “preem” setup, really. Because that’s the only thing I haven’t upgraded and it would only be another $100 (hey, maybe there’ll be a black Friday discount). I’m probably most curious about Sakura and Harmor but I’m lookingto actually record.
I have a lot of bullshit posted in the FL Studio thread about it, but I’m wanting to upgrade from signature as well. I mostly just run patcher for youtube streams and jams, but every time there’s a hiccup all the native plugins think I’ve tried to save and retrieve states so they lock me out
(Or do I have producer? I think I’m on tier 2 of 4, whichever that is)
I kind of hate how much FL crashes like a motherfucker, but being able to pick up where you left off if you’re using anything from the suite seems worth it enough. If you use a lot of external VSTs and CLAPs it’s probably not worth it, since you already have access to the entire patcher / mixer / whatever bays
I just couldn’t resist and got the version for 1 buck today - it’s over 110 GB of samples in 6000 instruments…checked out some of the sounds, nothing too crazy so far but quality stuff.
Very happy with the samples so far but no idea about the license policy tbh. Is is about license transfer or about using the stuff for some types of commercial projects?
