8. VST and DXi Plugins. You’ll notice the Fruity Wrapper in the above list. This generator is only to
be used for VST and DXi synth plugins, which are listed under the obvious headings in the above
picture. But you don’t need to open it on its own – if you double-click on one of the VST Plugins, it
will automatically open a Fruity Wrapper for you. A VST plugin synth, confusingly called the mda
DX10, is also available as freeware.
Some of the additional Fruity Generators come in Fruity / VSTi / DXi version. This way these
generators can also be used natively in other music host programs.
Please check our website at

9. The Other VST Plugins. I know what you’re thinking – what about all the other VST Plugins in the
list? VST plugins are either synthesizers or effects (FX), and most of the ones you have to start with
are FX (we explain how to use the FX in the Mixing & Effects section below). Unfortunately, there is
just no reliable way for FL Studio to tell the difference between FX and synth plugins, so you’ll just
have to remember which is which. If you try to open a VST Plugin and all you get is an error message
and the empty wrapper shown below, then it was probably an FX plugin.
