It seems silly that somebody could do most of their work in other (i.e. rival) software (and/or external hardware), but still enter it in an 'FLStudio' competition. If the competition had been organized directly by the artist supplying the samples, then fair enough, use whatever equipment you own. But since it's organized by FL Studio, no entrant should be at a disadvantage to somebody who owns $'000s of other software plugins or hardware.
But then how will it be fair with those who only have FL studio and other who have FL Studio XL!!!
