FL Studio 2026 upgrades AI chatbot to assistant engineer

By PulseAugur Editorial · [4 sources] ·

FL Studio 2026 has upgraded its AI chatbot, Gopher, from a simple instruction manual to an active assistant engineer. Previously, Gopher could only provide instructions, but the new version can now execute commands within the Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). Users can ask Gopher to perform tasks like setting up drum patterns or applying effects, though it has limitations such as not being able to create automation or select specific instrument presets. The update also includes improvements to the Flex virtual instrument and cloud backup features. AI

IMPACT Enhances user capabilities within music production software, allowing for more intuitive and automated task execution.
