Should you upgrade to FL Studio 21? With the announcement of the FL Studio 21.1 Beta, I'm very excited for the maturity of FL 21, as well as improvements to its MIDI Scripting API (M-Audio Oxygen Pro users will benefit from this as I update the Oxygen Pro Premium Template for FL Studio).
By the way.. FL Studio 21.1 has a new plugin called "Hyper Chorus".

VST3 vs. VST2 Plugins.. What Should You Use?
In short, use VST3 for best future-proofing of your music projects... however, there may be times where your software does not support VST3, and that's where you'll have to fallback to the VST2 version of that plugin.
As an end user, we really don't see too many benefits of VST2 vs. VST3, as it's mainly developers who gain more features and functionality that we end users get to use when making our music.
(The main benefits of VST3 would be usually a resizable GUI, and in FL Studio, we can often right-click in VST3 third-party plugins!)
As a bonus, we cover how to buy plugins for music production, and being careful about the best VSTs for beatmaking when they are subscription plugins.

Did you know that you as the music producer have more control than mixing and mastering engineers? Because music producers work with VSTi's, and have the RAW MIDI Files, we have customizability that no one else has! Take advantage of this to fix problems that audio tools like EQ, Compression, and Gates cannot!

Today we talk about the whole process of music production TARGETED FROM A BEATMAKER'S POINT OF VIEW.
You must understand that being the music producer who makes the beat, you want to be in full control of the song. And in order to do this, it's very important to understand each step of the music production process.

After 12 years of teaching 50,000+ students beatmaking with FL Studio, I've seen common patterns of music production educators.. very often these students end up coming to my platform explaining their journey, or I'm able to see their screen via a FL Studio lesson..
I see exactly where they are at, and what types of videos they've been watching (and sometimes got tricked into purchasing certain products).
Learn the 3 Types of Music Production Educators (and red flags to avoid) in this episode.
