FL Studio 25 free download — what the trial covers
The free trial is the same installer paid customers get. You can use everything:
- All stock instruments and effects
- Full mixer, piano roll, playlist
- VST/VST3/AU plugin support
- Full export to WAV/MP3/FLAC/OGG
- Audio recording

The only restriction is reopening saved .flp projects without a license key. The workaround is bouncing your tracks to audio before closing FL Studio.

Log into your account, download the latest installer, enter your existing license. Done.
