Just noticed this in my feed reader:
What Dashboard do you want?
As you may know the next release of FL Studio will have (the FL version) of SynthMaker included. This will not only allow you to create incredible synths & FX but also do fully functional dashboards for your hardware & software synths.
Well I for one didn’t know! This is pretty cool.
I wonder if that means these special SM synths and effects will only work with FL Studio. Would make sense right? If people start making cool synths and effects with this (and they only works with FL Studio), that would be a great selling point for FL Studio…
Looking forward to see what this will bring!
