… will only get you so far ….
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to chat to fellow musician Nadir Omowale earlier this week and it got me thinking about what I would like to see in my "ideal control surface". The introduction of scripting in some of the DAWs (notably, but not exclusively FL Studio) is starting to result in... Continue Reading →
The Digidesign Command 8, as a piece of technology, is now pretty old, however, as was the case with a lot of things in those days, it was well built and many still function well even today - and, perhaps best of all, it still a lot going for it! What many don't realise is... Continue Reading →

This is pretty rough and ready but it is a nice addition that I personally find can save me a fraction of a second 'here and there' in my FL Studio workflow, especially when banking through tracks in a large project. NB I am hoping that one of the excellent FL studio team will pick... Continue Reading →
So I have looked at the bespoke keyboards for FL Studio - they look great but are a little pricey at around £79 -£99 so I did a bit more digging and came up with something similar - a Bluetooth keyboard with matching shortcut overlay for a little under £25! The picture above shows what... Continue Reading →
