Description
Get ready to master the power of FL Studio with FL STUDIO POWER: THE COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE! Due to its instant overview and loop-friendly appeal, musicians and producers are flocking to FL Studio (formerly FruityLoops) in droves. But many musicians and producers aren't aware of everything FL Studio has to offer, or how to maximize the program to its full potential. FL STUDIO POWER: THE COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE! begins with a basic look at the program and then quickly moves into the software's more complicated features. It includes tips and tricks on the use of the program and displays clearly how new and advanced users can learn all its features. Everything from general setup, to MIDI implementation, to incorporating plug-ins, to using FL Studio for live performance, is covered in-depth. The book will leave the reader with a strong understanding of how to use FL Studio as a standalone recording program, as a live performance tool, or as a complimentary addition to other software programs.

Disappointing
There are several approaches to writing a book like this. You can focus on beginners and write a high level overview. You can focus on "power" use and describe tips and techniques that are non-obvious and aren't covered in the user's manual (like the FL Studio Guru videos on youtube). Or you can be an all-encompassing reference guide, describing every feature in detail. Unfortunately, this book tries to do a little bit of each of these things, but it does a poor job of all of them. With its title, and a back cover claiming to "dive into every corner" of FL Studio, you would think the book would cover everything, but it has a lot of glaring omissions: for instance, in the chapter that goes over the menus and interfaces, there are dozens of menu items not even mentioned. Yes, that stuff is covered in the user's manual, but it should also be covered in detail in any book calling itself "The Comprehensive Guide". There are plenty of other omissions as well: No description of loop recording in Edison, or configuring multi-output virtual instruments, for example. Both of those are pretty essential, but somewhat non-intuitive, operations in FL Studio. The topics it does cover are often superficially treated (the section on the Riff Machine tool is pretty useless, for instance). These examples are just ones I can think of off the top of my head; there are plenty of others. The book fails as a beginner's book as well because it doesn't really give you the big picture on the FL Studio workflow before diving into the menus and windows. There are precious few power user tips and tricks, so it doesn't really provide much insight that isn't covered in the user's manual. Finally, its just poorly organized, relative to how you use the program. There are a couple of things I do like about the book: the chapter on installation and set up is pretty well done; the writing style is easy to understand; and the author sticks to the material and doesn't go off on tangents. I also like the fact that its a hardcopy book -- I can read it away from my computer and then dig in deeper later when I'm at the computer. But its a far cry from being "The Comprehensive Guide".

The books is alright!
Well, first all you don't really need to buy the book because there is already lots of tutorials on youtube. In addition, if you planning to make electronic dance music you really got to up the game in music production. Knowing the ins and outs of the software. You also go to learn which sounds benefit from eq, compression, reverb, and distortion. I'm trying to be hardstyle producer and this book doesn't help at all. I wish I found a book more in depth with synthesis and mastering, but all of that takes time/trial and error. If your a noob at fruity loops or fl studios, buy this book. Plus, going to the the authors myspace. You can tell his sounds could of been mastered even better to make his songs really pop. Shrugs shoulders. Overall its good read for noobs only, not for people who want to be more advanced in music production or reach the professional level. It will suffice in america, but in europe's electronica scene its a whole different battle field.

FL Studio Non Bible but pretty awesome.
Like many people who assume they know what they are doing... I jumped right into FL Studio without buying/picking up any books and with losing the original material which came with it (not unusual for me)... man I had no idea of what I could do until I picked this book up and read it. The official Bible for FL studio was a little out of my price range at the time so I picked up this book instead and have been running with it. Until this book came into my life, one out of 25 intense studio sessions produced anything I'd want to associate my name with. After using this, one out of five sessions are producing awesome things for me. The other four (average) produce stuff which my friends who hear it say it's pretty good, but when they hear the one I'm proud of, they are amazed.

FL Studio Power! The Comprehensive Guide (Artispro)
This book is totally awesome to the fact it goes into detail all the options the user has. The more knowledge one has the more he can do... Highly recommended The shipping was quick as well

Not what I needed
This is a very disappointing - and expensive - old style book that covers a piece of software by discussing the menus, windows and buttons. In essence it's a lot of 'If you click this it will do that'. I managed a software enablement team and the only mandate was that you never, ever create this type of content. I spent an hour with the book, learned nothing of value and now it's taking up space on my bookshelf. Don't make the same mistake.

The illustrations are not clear for a beginner like me with this program
Not updated to the newest version of FL Studio 12. The illustrations are not clear for a beginner like me with this program. The hardest thing to follow this guide as it was based on the older version of FL Studio so the newest version has a completely different setup.
