No doubt FL Studio is a complex beast, it's overwhelming with all of the menus and options present. This guide has a logical flow and explains each option clearly. There is a bit of theory, but the majority of the content is going through a practical approach and showing you how to use actually use the software. Would definitely recommend!

If I'm perfectly honest I bought this guide with caution as the front cover looked more like a fruit picker guide to fruit than anything... How wrong I was. This guide turned out to be the bible of FL. No matter what area or lane you are stuck in in the vast world of FL this guide will guide you through its step-by-step instructions & manuals. It has everything from setting up your first projects, composing with piano roll, and using effects & plugins to applying automation & mastering. This little gem in a book is a must for every FL Studio user.
