Can some one tell me what is a good tutorial for Ableton Live v8? I'm interested in learning how to use the program. If I really like it I think I'm going to buy it. I just want to make sure that I can really make use of it before I make the switch from FL Studio. What do you think is better for making Dubstep? FL Studio 10 or Ableton Live v8? I been using FL Studio for years now. But I keep hearing a lot of good stuff about Ableton Live v8. I just can't seam to learn how to use it on my own. So some one please tell me a good tutorial to learn how to use the program & get the most from it. Thanks in advance.

YouTube is a BOUNDLESS source of knowledge.
