ėck0 digs through your .flp files and everything you bounced, then puts the whole year on screen. Ten slides, your own beats under every one of them, each one exported as its own video. Then it keeps going: your week by week activity, a tag editor that hears the BPM and key, and packs built out of your own folders. Mac and Windows. No guessing, no vibes - just timestamps.
Ten slides
Nothing typed in, nothing rounded up. Every number comes out of your own project files and the beats you bounced. The order is fixed; the words change with your numbers. The shots below are real slides - the collab names are blanked out, everything else is untouched.
One app, ten tiles
The recap is where it started. The start screen now holds a whole studio around it, and everything feeds off the folders you already pointed at.
The year, ten slides
Your .flp files and your bounced beats turned into a recap with video, your own music under every slide, and numbers you can't argue with. Each slide exports as its own MP4, landscape and vertical at once.
Your activity, live
- beats, loops and projects per week, month, day, hour and year, as bars - click one and hear what's in it
- finish rate, collabs, BPM, hours in FL and your goals and streaks
- Deep dive: every collab, sound and plugin, ranked
- the ėck0nomy: what all of us made together, on a world map
Fill in the blanks
- title, artist, album, genre, BPM, key and cover, written into your files
- titles and producer names read out of the file name
- BPM from the matching FL project, or measured off the audio
- everything editable before it's written
Ready to send
- Beats - tagged copies with cover and a tracklist
- Loops - BPM and key in the file name
- Drum Kit and One-Shot Kit - sorted and numbered

Find it by key
- the circle of fifths with every beat and loop you made in each key

- Flip Roulette - spin, land on a forgotten loop or starter, flip it at the BPM and vibe it hands you
Where you came from
- memory cards out of your own files: Unfinished Business, The Comeback, Hidden Gems, Speed Run, Marathon, Crash Counter and more
- your top kits, your ex sounds, your plugin graveyard
- open the project or the beat right from the card
Do you know your own beats?
- games built from your own catalogue: Guess The Beat, Guess The Year, Guess The BPM, Guess The Collab, Which Came First?, Backspin, Chopped & Screwed, Speed Run
- Easy, Normal and Hard - 10/10 unlocks the next level
Train your ears
- Name The Note, Hear The Chord, Major Or Minor, Find The Root, Build The Chord, Key Of The Beat, Pitch Compare, Pitch Reading on a piano roll, plus a Chord Lab
- Easy, Normal and Hard for every exercise, best scores and streaks
Finish what you started
- every project with real hours in it that never got bounced
- open it in FL Studio, mark it done or skip it
Small things that matter
Twelve app icons, and the one you pick colours the film behind the whole app - Chrome goes silver, X-Ray flips to a negative, Zebri strips it to black and white.
Push a story slide straight into your share menu - AirDrop, Messages, whatever you use - so it's one tap from your phone into Instagram.
ėck0 works out which of your files is a finished beat, which is a loop or sample and which are stems of the same track. Only real beats count towards your year.
Crate and Tags copy, sort and rename - the originals are never changed. Tags is the only part that writes, and only into the copies you chose.
The recap only. Pulse, Tags, Crate, Wheel, Roots, Deja Vu, Huh and Leftovers open with Appetizer or Combo Plate.
Three steps and it cooks
From double click to finished videos sitting on your desktop. Everything runs on your own machine, Mac or Windows. Your music never gets uploaded, nobody watching.
Drag it in
Your FL Studio folder and the folder with your bounced beats. Subfolders are fine, FL's own backup copies get thrown out so your hours don't count twice. Pick a year, or go All-Time.
See the damage
ėck0 runs the numbers and walks you through the year slide by slide, with video, your own music and stats you can't argue with. Hover a month or a name and a beat from it plays. Some of them gonna hurt.
Send it
One click and every slide comes out as its own video with sound - landscape and a vertical cut for stories, both at once. No cropping, no editing.
What it reads
Inside the .flp
- when the project was made and how long you really sat in it
- tempo and key
- every sample the project pulled in
- backups and saved-as versions filtered out
What you bounced
- how many made it out, and in which month
- collaborator names straight from the file names - spelling mistakes and different spellings of the same person get merged
- the audio you hear on every slide
Nothing repeats
- across every slide and every hover field, each beat plays exactly once
- the beat on the longest-project slide is that project's own beat
- a BPM in a file name is never mistaken for a name
- your own name never shows up as your collaborator
31 films
- a different film behind every slide
- one for each of the twelve months - your strongest month brings its own
- five openers to pick from, or drop in your own clip

FAQ
Is this made by Image-Line or Spotify?
No. ėck0 is an independent app built by escofoe. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Image-Line or Spotify. It only reads FL Studio project files that are already on your own computer.
Does my music get uploaded anywhere?
No. Your projects, beats, samples and file names never leave your computer. ėck0 only goes online for your account, your subscription, syncing a few settings between your computers and the anonymous ėck0nomy totals. Details in the Privacy Policy.
What if I don't use FL Studio?
Then ėck0 can't build your year - the slides are read out of .flp project files. Other DAWs aren't supported.
How does it know who I made a beat with?
From the file names. It pulls the names out, ignores BPM numbers, keys and version markers, and merges different spellings of the same person - so kplayaz and klpayaz count as one. Your own name is excluded, which is why you type it in once when you activate.
What is the Stash Kit?
ėck0 counts every sample your projects pulled in that year and ranks them. On the last slide it copies the ones you leaned on most into a folder named after you - your own drum kit, built out of what you actually used. Combo Plate only.
What is the ėck0nomy?
All ėck0 producers together. Once a day ėck0 adds your totals - hours in FL, beats, loops, projects, the key and tempo you cook in - to one big number for all of us, with a world map that lights up where we are. No rankings, no comparing, no competition. Never your music, never your name. Switch it off any time in Settings. Creativity is the currency.
Can I run it on two computers?
Yes - one subscription covers up to two computers, Mac or Windows. Changing computers? Remove the old one in ėck0 → Settings → ėck0 account and sign in on the new one.
Does it run on Windows?
Yes. Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit, with its own guide. Same app, same slides, same export - the video side was rebuilt on Windows' own engine, nothing extra to install.
macOS says the app is from an unidentified developer.
ėck0 isn't signed through Apple's developer program yet. Right-click the app once, choose Open, confirm. After that it opens normally.
Windows shows a blue "Windows protected your PC" box.
Same reason - the app isn't signed yet. Click "More info", then "Run anyway". Once is enough.
How right is the BPM and key it hears?
BPM comes from the matching FL project first, so that one is exact. Key is measured off the audio when the file name doesn't say. Tested against 323 beats with a known key it lands on the right one about two times in three, and most of the misses are a related key. Every value is editable before anything is written, and nothing gets written to your originals.
What are Pulse, Tags, Crate and the rest?
Pulse is your year as it happens. Tags writes titles, BPM, key and cover into your files. Crate turns your folders into a beat pack, a loop pack or a drum kit. Wheel finds your beats by key and holds Flip Roulette. Roots digs up memories out of your files, Deja Vu and Huh are games for your catalogue and your ears, Leftovers lists what you never finished. All of them need Appetizer or Combo Plate.
Can I run an older year?
Yes, with Appetizer for the one year you pick, or with Combo Plate for every year plus All-Time. The slides are rebuilt from the files of that year.
Something's off with my numbers.
Pull up and say what looks wrong. Most of it comes down to how projects were saved, and that is usually fixable.
