Currently the company has 15 employees working in product development. The FL Studio project contains more than 2.5 million lines of code and more than 300 assembler functions for the digital signal processor. “For native development, Delphi is my first choice.” – Jean-Marie Cannie, CTO and Founder Challenge FL Studio is installed more than 30,000 times per day (more than 10 million installations a year) by users in more than 200 countries, including power users such as Avicii, Martin Garrix, Afrojack, and Mike Oldfield.
