Question
How do I use FL Studio on the Mac?
I know they don't create a version of FL Studio for the mac but is there any way I can use fusion or parallel.

You can use fusion and just install windows with FL Studio. The trick is to set the memory for the hosted OS properly:
1. Install or port your Windows OS to your Mac/VMWare.
2. Set the hosting memory to 512 mb in VMWare for your hosted Windows instance; not MORE or the Mac will drag. The default is 1024 and this is too much.
3. Set set the audio latency up a bit: In FL Studio under Options -->Audio Settings I have the Direct Sound Properties samples widget set to about 4800 samples, highest priority, use polling, use hardware buffer, safe overloads (32 bit buffer is turned off).
