Academic & Educational Licenses

1 Academic Licenses vs. Site Licenses: What's the Difference?

Single User Academic License: for Students & Teachers using a personal computer.

Multi-Seat Educational Site License: for Educational Institutions using school-owned computers.

Both licenses include Lifetime Free Updates. Educational licenses are only available as our Signature Bundle Edition. Commercial use is not permitted with our educational licenses (contact us for details).

2 Who are Single User Academic Licenses for?

Single-User Academic Licenses are for students and teachers from officially recognized educational institutions — government-recognized schools, music schools, colleges, universities, etc.

If you fall into one of the categories above, or are a parent purchasing on behalf of your child:

A discounted Single-User Academic License of the FL Studio Signature Bundle is ONLY available through our third-party Resellers & Distributors.

3 Who are Multi-Seat Educational Site Licenses for?

For recognized educational institutions, colleges, universities, music schools, etc.

Multi-Seat Licenses grant the institution the right to use FL Studio on a specified number of devices, accessible to all users on each device.

Multi-Seat Licenses are not intended for installation or use on student-owned computers.

The software belongs solely to the purchasing institution.

Educational Multi-Seat License Pricing

Multi-Seat licenses are delivered via digital download and can be purchased in batches of 5 seats. Due to the variety of equipment setups and institutional requirements, custom quotes are required for site licenses. In most cases, a Multi-Seat License can only be purchased through a custom order placed with our team.

Please contact us via Ticketing from your Account or use the contact form.

If you are purchasing FL Studio on behalf of an institution, or if your organization relies on regional tax regulations, please contact a Reseller or Distributor in your country for more information.

4 Solutions for Time-Limited Workshops or Courses

If you are planning a paid workshop or course for a limited period of time and want to purchase FL Studio licenses, please use the contact form. Time-limited licenses can be purchased at a greatly reduced price, but they can only be ordered through a custom quote from our team.

If you are planning a workshop or course for a limited period of time and cannot afford licenses for all devices or participants, below is a method for teaching FL Studio using the trial version.

The correct way to collaborate with or teach students using the FL Studio Trial / Demo

Even if a student does not own an FL Studio license for use on their personal device at home, our Free Trial enables them to work with FL Studio, export audio, and save projects without time limitations.

Since projects saved in the Trial cannot be reopened without a registered license, we allow you, as the instructor, to open FL Studio projects to re-save them, enabling your students to continue working on their projects. Watch the video below for a full walkthrough on this process.
