FL Studio 20.0.4 Update: New Transpose Option, Better CPU Performance

Image Line have done it again. This free update (all updates are free for FL Studio owners) includes dramatically lower CPU usage, new transpose options and a whole lot more.  

FL STUDIO 20.0.4 introduces significantly improved CPU performance plus you can now transpose multiple Instrument Channels or Patterns. See below for details ...

How good exactly is the CPU performance? Well, one tester had this to say:

"How the hell have you done this????

My CPU usage has gone from 105% to 37%!!!!

You've saved me a fortune as I don't need a new PC now!!!!!"

And the above commenter is not alone.

  • Patcher - More improvements to CPU usage!

  • Playlist - Chop Audio Clips in 8th and 16th note divisions.
