I am a huge fan of Music Studio Direct and House of Samples. They have been my first choice for all of my sounds and computer programs for almost four years! Moreover, Arnie, Mike and the crew deliver the best service. I highly recommend them.

Ableton Live is all about the studio as an instrument. It's what you use when you write a song, record and remix tracks, and when you perform live. Live is the perfect scratch pad for composition - it's all real-time, and you never have to stop the music. Live has all the production tools you need, and it plays like an instrument, so you're not tied to backing tracks on stage. And it's totally stable.
On top of all of that, there is also a range of great instruments for Live. You can also use any VST or AU plugins that you have. You can even build your own instruments. Live supports the best hardware controllers on the market, and there are also controllers tailor made for Live. Live has a creative, intelligent community, and lets you work with other musicians over the web. And that is just the beginning.
Suite
