If they could just make playlist recording record a single file that gets automatically chopped after you stop recording, it'd be a lot better. I've suggested this in the past - partly as a solution to the dropped audio which would always happen at the start of each new "take". But no luck. Being able to make the playlist lurid green and neon pink is more important than workflow improvements :(

If it were one file, you'd have one entry in the channel rack (that you can ignore), and you'd eliminate the need to use Edison and manually slice everything at the loop points in order to only have a single file. At the moment, you have to choose your compromises, because neither playlist recording nor recording into Edison are great workflows. It's very much a case of choosing the lesser evil - for me that's Edison, but I can absolutely understand why people don't like it. The idea that you need to use a separate plugin to do something so mundane as record audio into your DAW seems to bizarre, I really dunno why gol went this way. (Well I do, but let's keep this discussion civil ;) )


The real benefit to me of using FL Studio is that the overheads of recording add a few seconds of unnecessary steps to each take, but the piano roll saves me hours when I'm programming drums or editing MIDI takes. So it's worth the trade-off for me. If you aren't using the piano roll, and are doing audio only, it's the wrong DAW for you.
