Editing FL Studio (section)

=== Editions ===
FL Studio comes in several editions with different levels of functionality. The free trial version includes all of the program's features, all plugins, and allows users to render project audio to [[WAV]], [[MIDI]], [[MP3]], [[FLAC]] and [[Ogg|OGG]].<ref name="what" /> Projects saved while in demo mode, however, can only be opened once FL Studio and its plugins have been registered. Also, instrument presets cannot be saved and the audio output of some instruments is cut out momentarily every few minutes until the program and its plugins have been registered.<ref name="FL Studio 12.5 BETA 3" />

==== Fruity Edition ====
The Fruity Edition allows users to access the playlist, piano roll, and event automation features, which allow complex and lengthy arranging and sequencing. There is also VST/ReWire support so that FL Studio can be an instrument in other hosts such as [[Cubase]], [[Sonic Solutions]], and [[Logic Studio|Logic]]. As of version 21.0.3, this edition includes 84 instruments and effects; it does not support audio recording and the use of audio clips.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Studio |first=F.
