There are a ton of new features to check out &#8211; in this blog post, we\u2019re going to highlight some of our favorites that you need to know about.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Mac OS support<\/h2>\n<p>It only took 20 years but it was worth the wait. FL Studio 20 will work on Mac OS 10.11 and newer versions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5067 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-08\" width=\"1280\" height=\"565\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8-355x157.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8-400x177.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8-768x339.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8-1024x452.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8-1133x500.png 1133w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_8-1200x530.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/565;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>2. Multiple arrangements<\/h2>\n<p>This is a great feature not supported by many other DAWs. In FL Studio 20, you\u2019re able to switch between different arrangements. Can\u2019t decide whether to start with drums or keys? Try both! You can add new empty arrangements, clone existing ones, and even merge arrangements. This is personally one of my favorite new features, and I can\u2019t wait for more DAWs to adopt it.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5072 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Multiple-Arrangements.gif\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-13\" width=\"1080\" height=\"630\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1080px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1080\/630;\"><\/p>\n<h2>3. Changes in time signature<\/h2>\n<p>The majority of popular Western music is written in the time signature of 4\/4, but there\u2019s plenty of great music in odd time signatures as well (3\/4, 5\/4, 7\/4, etc). One of my favorite odd time signature songs is Radiohead\u2019s &#8220;15 Step,&#8221; which is in 5\/4:<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: 15 Step\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"152\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/6dsq7Nt5mIFzvm5kIYNORy?si=rs4jmlauRAO7hO3W1uiNng&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>FL Studio 20 finally allows time signature changes in the playlist. To create a time signature change, hit <strong>Shift + Alt + T<\/strong> and click&nbsp;<strong>Accept<\/strong> &#8211; this will create the time signature change at the playlist playback marker. You can even create time signature changes within piano roll clips!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5062 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-03\" width=\"1280\" height=\"440\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3-355x122.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3-400x138.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3-768x264.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3-1024x352.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_3-1200x413.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/440;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>4. Consolidating tracks<\/h2>\n<p>This feature will definitely save your CPU when working with a lot of plugins. Right click on a track and click <strong>\u201cConsolidate &#8211; From Song Start.\u201d<\/strong> This will render the track as an audio bounce on the playlist. This is also great for your creative workflow &#8211; once your track is consolidated, you can throw the audio into a sampler or Edison and continue to sound design. Lastly, consolidating can be a good way to \u201clock down\u201d your tracks. Every producer knows it\u2019s too easy to keep revisiting and adjusting components of your track as you keep listening. Sometimes, the best move is to stop making changes, and consolidating will help you finalize your work.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5071 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Consolidate-Tracks.gif\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-12\" width=\"876\" height=\"536\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 876px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 876\/536;\"><\/p>\n<h2>5. Hiding grouped tracks<\/h2>\n<p>While this isn\u2019t a game changer, hiding grouped tracks will definitely clean up your project, especially if you have a lot of tracks. This feature is also helpful when you have tons of automation clips.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5066 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-07\" width=\"1280\" height=\"800\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7-355x222.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7-400x250.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7-800x500.png 800w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_7-1200x750.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/800;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>6. More mixer tracks<\/h2>\n<p>This one is pretty self explanatory; Fl Studio 20 brings the maximum number of mixer tracks up to 125. Need more auxiliary or sub mix tracks? Fl Studio 20 has you covered.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5060 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-01\" width=\"1280\" height=\"800\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1-355x222.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1-400x250.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1-800x500.png 800w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_1-1200x750.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/800;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>7. More playlist tracks<\/h2>\n<p>While FL Studio 12 supported up to 199 playlist tracks, you can now use up to 500 playlist tracks in Fl Studio 20! This is great news for producers who tend to use separate tracks for everything as well as producers who love automation clips. And who doesn\u2019t love automation clips?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5069 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-10\" width=\"1280\" height=\"666\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10-355x185.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10-400x208.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10-768x400.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10-1024x533.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10-961x500.png 961w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_10-1200x624.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/666;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>8. Plugin delay compensation<\/h2>\n<p>This one could be considered more of a bug fix, but let\u2019s celebrate it nonetheless! In Fl Studio 12, there were latency issues with certain plugins, especially when using sub mixes. These issues have now been addressed, allowing users more flexibility with parallel processing and complex audio routing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5064 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-05\" width=\"1280\" height=\"567\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5-355x157.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5-400x177.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5-768x340.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5-1024x454.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5-1129x500.png 1129w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_5-1200x532.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/567;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>9. Automatically grouped recording takes<\/h2>\n<p>This feature is amazing when working with vocalists or instrumentalists. Fl Studio 20 now separates and groups tracks as you do takes. All you need to do is set up a looped region and begin recording. The DAW will then create a new track below the previous take each time the region loops back on itself.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5073 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Multiple-Takes.gif\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-14\" width=\"578\" height=\"506\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 578px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 578\/506;\"><\/p>\n<h2>10. The VFX Level Scaler<\/h2>\n<p>This is a new plugin that allows users to scale note properties in real time as received from the piano roll. This can be especially useful for finding inspiration from an uninspiring MIDI pattern. The VFX Level Scaler is also a valuable tool for live performance on any MIDI device.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5061 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-02\" width=\"1280\" height=\"800\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2-355x222.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2-400x250.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2-800x500.png 800w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_2-1200x750.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/800;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>11. Sample offset<\/h2>\n<p>Fl Studio 20 introduces a new Sample Offset parameter, separate from the Sample Start parameter. This parameter can also be automated &#8211; try automating it on vocals and pads (longer samples) to get some unique sound design.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5063 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-04\" width=\"1280\" height=\"543\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4-355x151.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4-400x170.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4-1024x434.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4-1179x500.png 1179w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_4-1200x509.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/543;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>12. In-App purchases<\/h2>\n<p>Even though this isn\u2019t really a \u201cproduction\u201d feature, I think it\u2019s a huge win for Image-Line. If you use a demo version of an Image-Line plugin and try saving the project using the demo version, Fl Studio 20 will allow you to purchase the plugin directly within the DAW. This is great since it won\u2019t interrupt your workflow, and it could be huge if they offered third party plugins this way.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5065 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6.png\" alt=\"13-features-fl-studio-06\" width=\"1280\" height=\"777\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6.png 1280w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6-355x215.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6-400x243.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6-768x466.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6-1024x622.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6-824x500.png 824w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/13-Features-FL-Studio_InPost_6-1200x728.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/777;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>13. Dump Score Log &#8211; 2 , 5, 10, 20 or 30 minutes<\/h2>\n<p>This feature is one of my favorites, and it&#8217;s especially useful if you use a MIDI keyboard to experiment with ideas.
