Education is of no value and talent is worthless - unless you have an unwavering aim. Never find yourself without a compass.
I work with a lot of music programs and there's a steep learning curve to a lot of them. You can really find yourself trying to figure out how to do things, instead of making music. Now I have another tool with the Surface music kit.
