I am new to production. I have been a musician for years but new to this side of it. I am messing around with FL Studio and Abelton Live now. I have done more with FL Studio but heard that Ableton Live is the way to go. I needed a controller and didn/t know which one to pick so I went with the Arturia Minilab. Does anyone have any thoughts on it? Any tips?
