Dorm Room Recording Music Production Software: FL Studio

FL Studio, formerly known as FruityLoops, is a great music production program for your dorm room recording studio. A trial version of it can be downloaded for free so you can try it out and see if you want to purchase the full version. FL Studio is one of the easiest music production programs to use but it is also powerful enough to do just about anything you would need.

The main screen in FL Studio is where you can make patterns of instrument hits to produce a beat. Every instrument has a piano roll that can be used to write melodic or harmonic parts. Once you have all the different patterns you want you can arrange them in the sequencer window to make a full song.

Just about every element in the program can be altered with automation clips or effects, and FL Studio can also handle MIDI and regular instrument recording through microphones. These recorded parts can easily be combined with the programed musical elements to create any type of electronic song. If you are looking for an easy to use and cheaper music production program for your dorm room recording studio consider FL Studio.
