Ableton Live is a great music production program that I recently started using. I had heard a lot of good things about it and finally got the change to try it out. It seems like the perfect software for loop based recording in a dorm room studio.
Both the live performance and recording of loops are what this program specializes in, but that doesn't mean it cant do regular recording and composition. The controls that can be used to modify and adjust sound files are much more intuitive than ProTools or any other software Ive come across, and Ableton comes with many usable effects plugins that have an easy system of control.
The midi aspects of the software are the same as any other music production program, you can record and edit the midi notes and apply different sounds and effects to them. The thing that separates Ableton Live from other programs is its ability to make music for live performance. You can switch between loops without losing the beat and edit any aspects of your sound easily. You can also record everything you are doing during a live performance, every little control tweak.
If you are looking for some new music software for individual music making or electronic style compositions this is as good as you'll find. It makes a great software application for dorm room recording studios.
