The Shocking Truth Behind FL Studio’s Downfall

[@rosegold-beats]

Here's what i did. Cracked fl studio>made money with music>bought fl studio. They deserve their money sooner or later

[@Pachz]

real! pirating should be for preservation of software - or if you really cant afford it and intend to buy it in future

[@inc0derDev]

This is why I like Reaper, they give you an infinite evaluation period. I can continue to learn their software, even make some money and then pay them all without breaking their tos.

[@naps1saps]

Use a free daw like cakewalk. I didn't have that option back in my pirate years. There really is no reason to pirate stuff these days there is usually a good free alternative.

[@thundermadethis]

FL Studio is $179 - I get it’s not free but if you’re serious about your goals and the craft, as a grown man I would figure it out. It’s a tool, it’s like if mechanics en masse went and stole power tools because they have a dream of fixing cars. Let’s not act like FL Studio is a loaf of bread and you’ll pass away if you don’t have the money for it immediately. If you’re an able bodied grown adult, you can 100% figure it out

[@bluemingsounds2837]

I remember when FL Studio was over $1k for the all plugins version. That was over 10 years ago

[@PacoStoddard]

Agreeeed, but also would like to add, it’s that cheap, and owning it gives lifetime free updates and you get discounted upgrades if you buy the basic version first, plus recurring drastic christmas deals. I feel like most people who pirate it don’t care to buy it, or they care so little to research the pricing to know that they can probably already afford it to some level

[@atothebeatz9641]

​​​@@bluemingsounds2837yeah. And one of very few options available. This "bedroom" producer, content creator market didn't exist. 10 to 20 years ago, the companies that are reigning today were barely starting out. The home studio market was beginning, fl and cubase and reason and all the grand daddy sequencers were coming up. And expensive as hell. It's not 2005 anymore. Daws are cheap Pirating is no longer "viable" for the up coming producer. Fr. Sells some beats off a free daw and then get a copy of FL studio. No excuse these days. We don't live in 2005. Hell this isn't the year 2000 anymore!

FL Studio is not canceled, you guys are. FL Studio did help everybody, by lowering their prices, work your way up like I did.

Stop spending money on things that will not help you achieve your goals.

SO TRUEEEE

[@furyofgad9705]

I’ll tell you this: I can almost assure you that the vast majority of the people pirating the software are young. High school to college age people. They’re super broke, but want to create. I got introduced to FL as a freshman in high school, with absolutely no money, but I had a passion and a drive. Had I been shut down at that point, I don’t know where I’d be right now.

[@ikirusha]

@@furyofgad9705 that's fine if you purchase it later down the line. However if you don't you're worse than dirt. I bought fl studio while I had no job or income. I just did some side hustles to get the money to buy the first version of FL which is only like 200$? I believe might be 300. I swept up and helped clean local stores for a quick 10-20$, I helped people clean their yards. I went out of my way to go and ask people if they needed help with anything at all as a free agent for hire. I also did not debate pricing. If they couldn't pay me 10$ I'd take the 5. It's not hard to do these things. Sell something you don't use anymore online or do a block sale.

[@TLllllll]

Everyone has a right to be paid for their work. I side with FL. Using 9/11 to justify theft is pretty disrespectful to the people who died on that day. New generation are entitled and you’re enabling them.

[@isabtdlr]

first of all, you don't gaf about 9/11, cuz if you did you wouldn't even comment on the situation because you would know damn well this isn't using a tragedy to justify theft. also calling theft to sharing a crack with some friends is stupidly crazy, it would be a theft if it actually affected the company, which it doesn't since the people that pirate the stuff wont buy it anyways. the people on image-line get paid even if their stuff gets pirated because they're a multimillionaire company, FL is like the top 3 daw in sells, a 13yo kid from colombia pirating their program doesnt affect their salaries

[@Ryanthemusician]

you must not care either because you are responding to a comment that has nothing to do with 911

[@TLllllll]

@@isabtdlr Theft is theft. Everything you’re saying is justifying someone not getting paid for their work. Whether they want to let a 13 y/o kid from Columbia have it for free is THEIR choice, not the choice of someone else. ITS THEIR WORK! Do you donate all your days off and free time to your job for free since it doesn’t affect your paycheck anyway? No one has a right to take someone else’s labor for FREE! You’re basically saying FL should work for free because they have a lot of money…wtf are you even saying right now? If someone doesn’t have the money for something, they should get a job or an extra job to save up and buy it. All the time spent making beats on a stolen program could have been spent buying it. The program is $179 on sweet water. Even at minimum wage it would take about 15 hours of work to buy it. If ppl like you can’t justify working to buy it, how can you justify FL working to supply it free? A bit hypocritical don’t ya think?!?

[@SteveFranchise23]

Bro your topics and videos are getting worse and worse

[@soundsfromYYBY]

🤔😳🤨🤣

[@BROSANCHEZTVOFFICIAL]

If you can't afford FL Studio then you don't need to be making beats right now. You need to be getting your economic situation in life under control and you don't have the luxury to sit around cooking up unfortunately. I can't even focus well when I'm making beats if I'm hurting in life. Prioritizing is necessary. Spending time making beats is a luxury. When I couldn't afford FL I went to my friends house who already had it and used theirs. It's not FL' s fault that people can't afford it. That doesn't make it right to crack it. It's like saying that since I can't afford Louis Vuitton it's ok to steal it. '

[@SuperAgentAB]

The thing is that people want to use it because other people use that as well. That said, there are free alternatives that can do the same thing.

[@atrestimes]

not everyone who wants to produce is a grown broke adult, most people who crack it are usually just teenagers who don't have ways to make the money (or people who just don't see the point of paying when there's a free way, and don't care if it's illegal or not because who's gonna stop us lol)

Yo, use the free version of FL Studio. Stealing will only bring you bad luck.

[@patrick5301]

Forgot to consider this 👍

[@holdmysassy]

fr. you cant open your saves but you can leave it open and keep exporting.

Nah bro, wtf, did you really compare people cracking fl studio to people starving to death? THIS IS WILD BRO, NGL

[@DBTHEPLUG]

FL Studio is like a video game: not necessary to survive.

[@forsale313]

Busy You have a Point, All the kids (pre-Highschool) use Bandlab and a Lot of them look at me funny when I ask them about other DAW's.

[@thehousepreacher3982]

I was introduced to FL and found it so awesome. I bought the fruity edition, and used it for a year. I later upgraded to producer when they ran a promotion. Im about to upgrade to the signature bundle now. I find their pricing to be the best, epecially considering their lifetime updates. No company is as generous guys. How did the user post such nonsense on their account? How does one get so deceived to think they can help everyone with an illegal download link?? Even poor people have no right to do illegal activities. Its that simple. Why would you bother with FL when there are free DAWs out there? You cant threaten a company that has brought so much valuet to the marketplace like FL. Why are there no such complaints against companies in other industries like clothing, cars etc? Beat makers should pull their heads out of their 4rs3s and wake up to reality. The market place is for those with services/products and the means to exchange for that value. As usual, Americans always throw tantrums when they see some company outside the US doing so well. Apple vs Huawei & Samsung/ Boeng vs Airbus etc. Stop this shyt.

[@pesopeso510]

aye busy you forgot to mention your arch nemesis curtis naming FL ppl 😂😂

[@Troystreetzproduction]

I’ve known about fl studio since the fruity loops days but I didn’t start using it until I got a hold of the cracked version in 2012 but I eventually bought the 800 versions which is how most people started

[@ifrowizzybeatz]

Thank you Game for your continual reach to your community! Let me add too, I already have plan selling Fl studio to my client so I can afford my purchase too. True intent is what we seek Game. 😅

[@leburz]

I respectfully disagree with a lot of this, no offense, but sharing crack links on Twitter leading to an account banning is something that happens daily. You're increasing the reach of the crack, when those cracks are all located on several websites. The only misstep is their response, where they should have just copystriked and moved on. I am a bit worried this is a BandLab sponsored video.

FL Studios piano roll is unmatched and if you actually have talent and no music theory and have the skills it's a great dog is it and it gives you like every approach you can think of to work from and the price is absolutely the cheapest from what I have seen outside of free

[@mayoshanebeats]

Thanks busy💪🏾

[@yonatanamaya7328]

Its not only Image line but just big companies as a whole. They step on the people who make them.

[@haonrepulsor2227]

Exactly. whoever will buy it will buy it. any DAW. I met some kids and they showed me BandLab a couple of months ago. Me that - WTF man. Yes. BandLab is amazing. I didn't get to know much about the program, but what did I understand about it? Several users can work on one project. Online without problems. One records vocals. The other is doing the arrangement. the third of the mix. And for free. No lag and drop in sound quality. Of course, it depends on what kind of monitors the user has. I THINK it has a video call, but I'm not sure. Do you know what any DAW needs to connect with someone from Europe to America. How much drop and delayed sound there is. So send FLP. So, does the other one have all the plugins or put it in audio. With BandLab, it is perfectly solved. I often think that if I had to switch to another DAW, it would be BandLab. I don't even have to have my PC to work in Bandlab. Everything is online. Connect from anywhere. FL STUDIO will not be the only one to suffer. BandLab will also disrupt other "offline" DAWs.

[@HessDesu]

I'm on FL Studio's side 100%.

[@lionbird7176]

Good. The pirated version allows you to open projects

There’s a big difference between buying Louis Vuitton and stealing it.

[@darktaleswithdeshea]

My 1st Daw was something called Magix Music Maker when I was around 16 which was around 17 years ago, then I got my hands on a cracked copy of FL Studio and I used it for probably 3 years before I myself bought the full version of FL, so I understand this. I made the switch to Studio One I think 4 or 5, then got Ableton Live 11 now I have 12 but either way, I would rather use The free daw from UAD called Luna before I ever touch the really gross looking FL again lol. Piano roll is great though in FL.

[@phil3670]

Bringing race into it now..... wow.

[@JayLu_music]

Stick to your favourite DAW dude , there’s no issue here…..

[@hydlidevlog]

Most people will not like what I have to say, but I'll say it. Do whatever you do with this one. I think personally that pirating software has it's value. How odd it may sound like. Because it also gives the company exposure and brand building while doing so. Sure they will miss the revenue from the pirated copies, but one day these pirated users may turn into your customers. Like myself... I pirated software back in the days of 2006 / 2008. Then bought the products I loved.

[@atrestimes]

i mean, really tho if i wanna pirate it how they gonna stop me lol

[@lowedv]

I trust fl studio always..

[@ikirusha]

Also im sorry but aint no one more broke than me. When i bought FL studio i didn't have a job, i still don't. I have the SIGNATURE BUNDLE and it took me less than a year to get it. I found a way to make the money i needed and i did it with 0$ in my pocket and no job. STOP COMPLAINING AND STOP DEFENDING THESE WEIRDOS. THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS FOR PRODUCING TOO, if you seriously live in a country where its that hard to afford use a different daw or work your way up. There are free options and cheaper options.

[@robmanolo]

Hey can we get your plugin and courses for free since we can’t afford them? I’m a college student 😂

[@busyworksbeats]

We have 14 day free full access trial 😎

[@hardheadedStreetcorernroll]

​@@busyworksbeatscan I ripp it for free somewhere?

[@jefffpv2759]

I pirated from 1999-2020. Then I bought a producer license. Bought a few plugins, then just upgraded to all plugins. Producer was $399 at the time and all plugins was $800. Probably spent $1000 all together. It is the only software I feel is worth the price. Free updates.

[@thomayamupright147]

My main issue with FL Studio is purchasing their plugins I've used for decades. Now I just can't afford to replace the missing plugins for the many songs I've already had ready for final touches. Greed is pushing me away. Stop advocating for them. They're just greedy. Let's keep it a buck. Without us, they wouldn't exist. Why I use it is because I don't need the internet to compose or produce songs. Just allow me to regain my plugins and we're good.

[@itslemah]

Man I agree with you 100%, no body will ever use the cracked if he could afford the paid version

[@christunez6340]

Using 9/11 and then bashing the software company that essentially made you, "you" is diabolical work. Then to try and tie racism is very sad bro. I'm very disappointed in this channel. You are helping foment a toxic culture FL is literally free now and you still got a problem. Everything doesn't need to be pirated especially on a company that offers lifetime updates and stands on it. You also sound very butthurt about not being mentioned as a power user this sounds more bitter and personal. Ave Mcree is not a FL guy and for you to say that made this whole video complete bs and a jealousy rant.

Hey Busy been following you for yrs... Love your content..but alot of FL user have went to THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS AKAI MPC ..FL IS DOPE MPC IS BETTER..my two cents .. I challenge you to try MPC and make some videos on that.... STAY UP

[@MarshalleseJedi]

I quit making beats because i used a purated fl studio download. I was seeing other "producers" roast artists for not being able to afford beats while using pirated beat making software. I wasnt raised to do the wrong thing and i wasnt feeling good about being a hypocrite (although i never said anything about "broke rappers").

[@filipwarpechowski6681]

I had cracked fl dont remember which version but it was years ago. I used it to make some crappy loops as I wanted to understand more about music production. Few years later I decided it's enough, as I wanted to share my stuff, so I took extra shifts at work and got legit product some time later. I mostly take music as a hobby and didn't share much; mostli I send some stuff to my friends and whatnot, but knowing I have a legit product and can do whatever with it gave me, like, confidence/reasurement that I'm on the path I wanted to be at. These days if one aspires to make money of music I really don't understand cracking software. At least buy a licence when you get some money, there are people where even base FL key can be expensive, I get it, but bragging about projects you did and saying 'LOL look I got new cracked version' is lame af. As sidenote; I get it, 9/11 can be viewed as a bad date to tweet sth ike they did but tbf if we took all tragic events that we memorize there would be few to none days when this would be apropriate. With all respect, I get it, this was a little lack of awarness, but still, it shouldn't stand as a major point in your argument against FL's tweet, that's all. Much love to all, peace.

[@boseyboi]

Why does this matter. Music is being made. Pro tools has been behind for years and still set for what it works. You just enjoy the band lab interface more and that’s fair!
