Yeah, exactly. By having some guidelines, it was really helpful in learning synthesis yourself (goddamn wave channel and it being weird! I still sort of suck at it for anything but bass).
I found LSDJ really intuitive though. The only other music software I'd ever used was Cubase, which I hated with a passion. LSDJ, to me, is pretty much perfect.
I love the look of Nanoloop, but the iOS version is just weird. I think I'm more of a tracker man.
