Decent Primer
The author is obviously very knowledgeable of his topic.Still, for anybody who doesn't use Ableton it could be tough especially for a real beginner.So i'll recommend either a good understanding of Ableton or be an advance beginner.

Decent overview of the capabilities of a DAW for beginners
These videos are a pretty good intro for what a DAW can do. I would think this would be good for beginners of any DAW (and any style of music) but the author does not describe how the techniques can be applied to DAWs other than Ableton. If you're intermediate or advanced there's not too much here for you.

Response from Customer Service:
The authors focus is the DAW he is most familiar with so the tutorial is shot in Ableton but the techniques can be applied across all DAW's
As this is geared towards beginners, I will add a request for a more advanced tutorial for intermediates.
Thanks again!

1. When did you start dabbling in music?
I started producing music just over 5 years ago, right about when Skrillex's Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites EP dropped.
2. What training have you had?
I'm fully self-taught, and haven't had any formal training. I use online resources and learn a lot by talking to other producers about how they do things too.
3. When did you get into recording?
(same answer as number 1)
4. People you have worked with/for?
DJTechTools, iZotope, Output, CAPSUN Pro Audio, Loopmasters, Plugin Boutique, Industrial Strength, 5Pin Media
5. Why are you so good at training people?
I've had a lot of experience in the EDM space, from producing tracks and sample packs that have charted on sites like Beatport, through to DJing internationally and running a record label. And on the training side I've produced thousands of tutorials, and also tutor people one to one.
