Intro is limiting and can be annoying (only 8 tracks can be in a song, 12 effects, etc.) but for the price its a good deal. If you want to learn what Ableton Live has to offer its a good buy but if you have the money I vote for buying the more complete software.

Let me start out by saying that this product (ableton intro) is almost identical to the ableton cd you get when you buy certain controllers (novation launch pad) except this version comes with several gigabites of extra sounds n stuff. So anyway, I was working with the fruityloops demo for a while and I wanted to start getting serious about making music on my computer. It turns out that 99% of the electronic music i listened to was made with ableton and everyone was always saying ableton was better than fruity loops. Well now that I have ableton live intro I can say that ableton is extremely better than fruityloops! This intro version is great! you can do alot of things, you can make rap beats, techno songs, you can use it to DJ, you can make your own band to play along with you on guitar, bass, drums, whatever!

THE THING I DIDNT LIKE was the limitation of instruments you can have at once, although it somes with 100s of intruments you can only use 8 at once, to put that into prospective, 8 instruments is like a very simple techno song.

So ya overall this product is great... but the limitations really make you want to buy the full version of ableton live.

To start off. Id like to say that I'm not your very experienced DJ who has every MIDI controller known to man and every mixer to record. When I bought this, I was simply looking to record some of my songs and make them sound awesome. I have a mixer and I paid money for this software because of the reviews I had heard of. If you're not the greatest DJ that ever lived, either pay $500 for this full confusing software, or find a better software. Which is exactly what I'm going to do. The sounds on this software are amazing but you're lucky if you can get any of them! Most of them say, "This isn't in Ableton Live Intro, Buy the Full Version". No thank you Ableton.
