Faster beats, step by step.

FLpad Mini is built to get your beats flowing in FL Studio — without sacrificing too much space in your setup. It connects directly to the Channel Rack for triggering samples, step sequencing up to four tracks at once, playing instruments, and developing ideas with Patterns.

What can you do with FLpad Mini?

Make beats in the Channel Rack - The Channel Rack is the core of the FL Studio workflow — and FLpad Mini is hardwired in. Select and trigger samples directly from its 64 color-coded pads.

Step sequence ideas - Quickly craft melodies, basslines, and drum patterns for up to four instruments at once, then shape every single note with FL Studio’s Graph Editor.

Finger drum - Tap your beats in live — the mini-pads light up with dedicated layouts for FPC, Slicex, and Fruity Slicer.

Play basslines, chords, and melodies - Play melodic instruments, either locked to a chosen scale or chromatically, using Note view.

Build tracks with Patterns - Develop ideas directly from the pads; a dedicated view makes it easy to create, select, clear, and duplicate Patterns.

Navigate and control FL Studio - Use the buttons to move around projects, control FL Studio’s transport, undo and redo, quantise, and use the Score Log to make sure you never miss an idea.
