  1. Pay 10x what Fruity Loops can do for 1/1000th the capability.

    Imagine if it had Banana Jacks and was Blue?

  2. Fruity Loops doesn't even come close to what a Schritty does for workflow, creativity, and on-the-fly performance. It is an artist's instrument with it's own personality and touch on the sounds it is driving. Immensely powerful, and no strain on the eyes or the wrists squinting into a PC monitor. If Fruity Loops were serious about making an instrument,then they'd have to make a hardware hands-on sequencer of the same build quality of the Schritty. That's never going to happen, and for now, FL is great for some, and horrible for others.
    There's a reason why KS's signature is on this beast...it is one of the 7th wonders of the sequencer world.
    Just my $.02. FL is nice software, however, yes.
