Cubase is built from the ground up for recording/tracking of both MIDI and audio with its lanes and track version system, fully featured mixing console with every type of volume metering under the sun / advanced mixing automation with VCA faders and track grouping, fully featured audio editing, scoring / music notation support, time signature and tempo changes, time saving MIDI based composition with features like logical editor and chord tracks, extremely flexible quantization system,
I havn't even gotten into half of what Cubase does to target the "professional" market.
Pretty sure FL studio doesn't care about nearly anything on that list, and it shouldn't because its NOT targeting that market.
