FL Studio 9.5 beta incorporates a number of enhancements and new features based on ongoing development and customer input. These include:
Notable changes & improvements:
Larger mixer view & waveform metering - The Mixer View options include 'Wide tracks' and 'Waveforms'.
Individually sizable Playlist tracks - Any or all Playlist tracks can now be resized by dragging on the divider between the name areas. Individual tracks can also be locked at a desired size.
Live Playlist marker types - Playlist markers can be set to Loop, Pause or Skip for innovative live performances.
64 bit plugin support - The Wrapper now automatically detects 64 bit plugins and opens them in 64 Bit 'Bridged' mode.
Improved memory management - Two changes have been made to lower demands on FL Studio's memory allocation.
64 Bit & 32 Bit VST plugins can be opened in 'Bridged' mode that runs the plugin and its memory allocation in a separate process.
Audio Clips & Sampler Channels Keep on disk option now opens the sample in a separate memory allocation.
Improved audio options - ASIO: 'Mix in bufferswitch' and 'Triple buffer' may improve performance with some ASIO drivers. ASIO/DirectSound: Revised 'Playback tracking' options to help with alignment of visual feedback with audio where problems exist.
Fully automatic PDC - The default for new projects, automatic Plugin Delay Compensation updates the PDC settings when changes are detected.
Piano roll transport control - Editing in the Piano roll while in Song mode will now move the Playlist transport in sync with the Piano roll.
Piano roll - Rounded notes view.
Ctrl+B - Duplicate selection, zoom range or all (no selection) in the Playlist and Piano roll.
