A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for FL Studio (Fruity Loops), enabling AI assistants to interact with FL Studio's Python API and MIDI interfaces.

Overview¶

FL Studio MCP Server provides a bridge between AI assistants and FL Studio, allowing you to:

Control FL Studio via Python API (transport, mixer, channels, patterns)
Send MIDI messages to FL Studio via loopMIDI
Automate workflows with AI-powered assistance
Create music collaboratively with AI

Features¶

🎛️ FL Studio API Integration¶

Transport controls (play, stop, record, position)
Mixer controls (volume, pan, routing)
Channel controls (volume, mute, solo)
Pattern controls (naming, selection)
Project information
UI controls

🎹 MIDI Controls¶
