MIXING & EFFECTS
Before you hear any of the instruments in your song, their audio output must be processed though the FL Studio's mixer system. Each of the instrument' output is directed to one of the 64 insert mixer tracks where the sound is processed with a set of mastering filters, and may optionally be processed with a set of additional external filters and special effects.
FL Studio comes with lots of high-quality effects, so you can add reverb, phaser, flange, delay line and many other professional filters in your project without purchasing any 3rd party plugins.
However, since FL Studio is an application with an open architecture, you can also incorporate most of the popular standards of 3rd party filter plugins in the mixing chain. For more information on the effects standards supported by FL Studio, click the Supported Effects Standards link below.
In the default setup of the Mixer, all mixer tracks are processed in parallel, then sent to the master mixer track before the final sound is formed. However, with the 4 additional send tracks, and the ability to route the audio output of a mixer track to any other track, you have the freedom to create complex hierarchical mixing chains.
