Why are 95% of techno producers on Ableton?

[Superfreak]

Yeah the arrange mode is definitely the producing view, session for live.

Will check some of those tutorials. Going to take a course on Ableton Live 9,

Something from Groove3, ADSR or some other tutorial websites

Early on I mostly produced trance and was pretty much strictly flp with a bit of reason but always went toward flp. I was familiar enough with Cubase but never was my goto. Around 2006-2007 I started to take interests in ableton I always found it rather straight forward but working out complex automation and very fine production elements not straight forward enough.

For looping & sampling ableton is hands down easiest thing out there especially if yor using 90% sound packs.
I always found ableton lacking in the midi implementation I use a handful of hardware synths and find I bounce most all tracks to wav and just sequence in ableton.

I think as stated above a large amount of it is what you started with you normally stay with. Lots of newer producers coming in and because ableton is so straight forward from a instant gratification stand point I am guessing that's why

In my experience, Ableton is just the most sensible software to use, if you're using software to write that is.

Producers need to make music quickly, not spend hours and hours figuring out how to use something. Convenience is more important than something needing to feel like it's difficult to gain a sense of achievement.
