Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • I love how easy it is to edit audio using the auto transcription. It allows for other great features like filler word and word gap detection/removal.
  • I love using this for podcast editing because it's so easy. I can edit out filler words quickly, and I love having a transcript of the episode ready for some quick edits.
  • I have found Descript easy to use, fantastic that I can see the transcript and manipulate it to get the recording that I need. The drag and drop of video and music is so easy and brilliant.
  • Cons

  • Perhaps stupidly, i carried on using Descript. A month or so later a Composition (their name for a document within a project) I was working on just stopped working.
  • There have been two occasions in last few months where Descript just stopped working. I lost days' worth of work on broadcast critical projects.
  • Luckily, I have also noticed this in time but this could have very well have led to a video having missing parts because of this "accident.

  • Pros

  • I've been using this program since the 11 version, I've seen how much it has changed and improved for good, now I can say its one of the best options you can use as a music artist.
  • Overall is a great tool for beat making and music production and the user interface is so intuitive. The lifetime free updates makes the price feel like a bargain IMO.
  • The thing I like the most about FL studio is the interface and the ease of music production on FL studio. There is a large library of inbuilt samples and plugins which are very helpful.
  • Cons

  • It might be confusing for new users as it has different layout than typical music production softwares.
  • Sometimes there were bugs and lags, and it can take forever to scan every single VST.
  • It was hard for me to understand how to operate the side chaining work flow on the mixer too but as you use it you get to understand how it work.
