Mira, lo que te voy a decir me temo que no te va a servir de nada, pero a riesgo de que me odies por ello, allá va. Pruébalo por ti mismo. Para que te hagas una idea, hay cosas como el nuevo Project Picker que para algunos es una estupidez y para otros una herramienta muy útil. Si vemos que hay gente que no sólo no está de acuerdo sino que está en las antípodas opinando justo lo contrario sobre una misma cosa, es fácil deducir que todos los consejos que te demos van a ser parciales, sesgados y 100% subjetivos. Pruébalo por ti mismo y decide. Sólo tú puedes tomar esa decisión.
Mi consejo: pásate a la 10. Pero de nuevo, repito lo anterior.
Como usuario cotidiando del FL te digo. A mi me tocó desactivarle varias de las opciones nuevas para poder irme acoplando. Digamos el nuevo mixer sólo lo uso cuando estoy finalizando mezcla porque me parece muy grande y me gusta ver todos los tracks mientras mezclo. Por otro lado, el redondeado nuevo de las notas del piano roll, lo odio, me parece que no te da una impresión precisa de donde empiezan y terminan las notas. Afortunadamente se pueden desactivar.
En segundo lugar hay proyectos que hice en 9, sobre todo cosas con interacciones complejas entre el playlist de audio y el de patterns, vocoders y linkeos raros de controles, que cuando las abro en el 10 no me suenan completas, es decir, no me importa bien todo entonces me toca seguirlos trabajando en 9.
Por lo pronto estoy intentando adaptarme al nuevo flujo de trabajo que sí es mucho más versátil que el anterior pero te pide un orden que antes no te pedía para entender tus proyectos y es que muy juiciosamente le pongas nombre a tus patterns. Si no, todo se te va a perder y no vas a entender nada.
Lo mejor de la versión 10 es la posibilidad de linkear controladores midi a altísima velcidad comparada con los anteriores.
Se marca un conmutador, tocas todos los controles de tu VST y luego tocas (en el mismo orden) los knobs de tu controlador y quedan asignados.
Es impresionante la mejora.

Eso es muy interesante, hay que probarlo. ¿Qué conmutador es ese?
Hola, se refiere al "Multilink to controllers" ¿no?.
Si no me equivoco desde la versión beta 7.3 ya estaba. (Desde la 8 oficialmente)
Por cierto respondiendo a la pregunta ¿Merece la pena dar el salto a la versión 10 de FL?... Es cierto que puedes hacer casi lo mismo de una versión a otra. Si ponemos como ejemplo que puedes girar el volante de un coche con y sin dirección asistida. Puedes subir el volumen de tu radio del coche desde el propio botón de la radio o desde el volante. Puedes encender la luces de tu coche manualmente o poner el modo auto para que se enciendan solas.... etc. Seguro que te inclinas por esas segundas opciones.
En definitiva que muchos de los cambios son para facilitar aún más el flujo de trabajo.
Algunos de estos cambios de la versión 9.1 a la 10. ( ¿Tonterías? ¡Bienvenidas sean! )
