Informative and Easy to Read.,

This review is from: Ableton Live 6 Power!: The Comprehensive Guide (Paperback)
Though this is my first book on Live, I've combed my way through several books on computer recording in the past (Reason, Pro Tools). This book is easy to understand, well written, and concise.
After a few chapters, I'm really enjoying Live. Software that I once thought was confusing is now effortless and fun. That's the biggest compliment I can give the authors.

3.0 out of 5 stars
A little long winded,
This review is from: Ableton Live 6 Power!: The Comprehensive Guide (Paperback)
It seems like the author wastes paper and time gushing out extraneous words and remarks about how revolutionary and great the software is instead of sticking to the nuts and bolts of how it works. To someone who wants to curl up with the book for weeks straight, maybe this is a plus. To me, I find it rather annoying. I'd prefer a more concise reference. Ableton is a great package, but I think getting acquainted with the software quickly makes its value self-evident. I prefer the Ask video DVD (the one in the green box).
