The main problem that I've seen arise with file corruption is that something weird happened and the, here's the important part: then you hit save!!!. I've almost never had a problem with file corruption once I learned to save OFTEN and save frequent new versions, despite the fact that I end up with a hopelessly huge number of generations of the same song but I've never regretted once being able to go back and salvage a project that got messed up because I saved right before I tried something like, oh, instantiate a VSTi, whacky as that may seem. FL is a Windows app. Windows has the devil inside it trying very hard to come out and ruin your day. Save often, make many version. It isn't fair but it will help you out of 99% of your migraine-inducing nightmares.
Yeah... see... I do that anyway, no matter the host. I usually have about 40 versions of the same damned song on my HD just because I'm a scaredy-cat. :shrug:

I did that even in Sonar and EXT. It's just smart practice. That can happen in any host, really.

I never really have any major problems with FL- other than the fact that it doesn't compensate for my lack of musical talent. I save my FLP's in three locations (including external disk) at frequent intervals if I'm working on something I actually care about. Been using it since V3 and it's what I always go back to- and I've tried pretty much every other host.

I know this isn't the right place to praise FL, but I love it! Sorry.

the one thing I hate about FL? I haven't used it for three days...but in the ward I was locked up in, there were plenty of fruit loops :nutter: :shrug:
The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.
