![]() ![]() WINE, the underlying technology, is an emulator but not in the sense of a virtual machine, which is how most Windows compatibility tools are implemented. (WINE can work beautifully, but there are various compatibility wrinkles with specific software – Image-Line and Crossovers have evidently worked specifically on making FL Studio function properly.) Here, Image-Line reports that there’s some additional customization and testing and tweaking that lets this run without further intervention on your part. Codeweavers already offers a standalone product that lets you run a variety of Windows (and Linux) software on the Mac, based on the same tech that lets you run Windows software on Linux. The magic here is possible through Codeweavers Crossover, a commercial proprietary technology built on the open source tool WINE. Image-Line said they’d never build a Mac version of FL Studio. Synthtopia wonders if Hell froze over, but not so fast. Yes, you see that right: it’s FL Studio, aka Fruity Loops, running on the Mac platform. HARMOR VST FRUITY LOOPS FOR MACOkay, I kind of buried the lead, but I wanted to give the synth its due.ĭon’t want to boot into Boot Camp to run FL Studio?įL Studio for Mac Beta-Testers Wanted (Both Harmor and Z3TA+ 2 are Windows-only, so time to boot up the PC or, Mac users, update that Boot Camp partition.)

There’s a beautiful crop of new synthesizers this season that could have you yearning for a winter spent with long nights somewhere deep in the Northern Hemisphere, producing new music – see also, to name just one, Cakewalk’s Z3TA+ 2. Didier Dambrin, FL Studio’s original creator, has a new synth entitled Harmor that looks like one to watch.
