Why exactly is Cubase better than FL for orchestra
Hi! I'm a complete beginner in music production, I've only really meddled in the art of composition through just improving at the piano for a few too many hours. I was looking at options for DAWs to start getting into it seriously and put my ideas into something more concrete than notes in my head.
I narrowed it down to two options: Cubase and FL Studio. I've read right about everywhere that Cubase is better for orchestral, but I don't get why. Not being in the industry, I can not for the life of me find info on how important some of the main points in favour of Cubase are without going through a rabbit hole so I just went ahead and wanted to ask directly here. So I'm gonna ask,
Why exactly is Cubase better than FL Studio (or ig any DAW) at orchestral music, and how important are its pros over FL? The only reason I'm asking in the first place is the price, really. The "average' Cubase edition (artist from what ive seen) is 100eur more than FL Producer, and doesn't have free updates between major versions like FL, so that's kind of scaring me away a little bit. On the other hand, FL is mainly used for hip hop from what I've seen and I'm really not interested and probably never will be interested in making that, so I'm kind of scared it will be harder to learn based on what I want to do with it.
Thanks!!
PS: sorry for the 999th "which DAW to use?" question, I'm the one to always look for other posts I just couldnt find one that fits my exact case, even a bit loosely :)
PS 2: i'm also kind of interested in doing rock/metal/alt, a bit less than orchestral but still enough to make it a big enough point to sway my decision. Is Cubase good enough for that kind of music out of the box, or is there more I need to buy or anything?
