And I wanted something that could do all of that without choking or killing my CPU. I wanted something that could play back stereo backing tracks while also sending MIDI patch changes to my HX Stomp and also send patch changes to my keyboard and ALSO send commands to my DMXIS box, which controls my DMX lights. I do my own original music, or covers, or both. However, if you’re me, Live Intro is the steal of the century.

But if you want to dive deep into EDM, you’ll want the full version of Live, not Intro. You could DJ with Live, you can do live electronic music concerts, blah blah blah. If you want to make loop-based electronic music, Live seems to be the standard for good reason – it’s got the best tools for it. And it comes with only 4 software instruments. You’re limited to 8 “scenes,” which won’t make sense to you unless you understand the unique way that Live works. You’re limited to 16 tracks, which can be audio or midi. Intro is a track and instrument limited version of Live. To match Logic or Live, you’d need to spend a ton of cash on instruments and drums and plugins. Pro Tools might be what the big studios use, but out of the box it’s designed for recording 32 tracks with mics in a pro studio. Eventually I’ll probably upgrade, but Intro is perfect for my needs right now (and budget.) So is Logic – at $199, it’s the smartest DAW purchase on the Mac. Actually, I’m running Ableton Live 10 Intro, because I don’t need the full version yet. I apparently seem to have THE stereotypical YouTuber home studio these days – a 2016 MacBook Pro, Logic Pro X, and Ableton Live. There are a lot of opinions on the web about which DAW is the best.
