Anyone know anything about Ableton Live Lite 8 - Fender Edition?

[Katastrophe]

I'm trying to get some knowledge on how to use the included recording software that came with my 'Stang.

So far, it's a gigantic pain in the arse. Not very user friendly, and the type is teeny.

All I want to do is create a backer or two with some drum loops, and use the bass function so I can plug the guitar in and record a little.

The help screen isn't getting me anywhere. Anyone have some hints?

I used it for a little while; I also got a copy with my Mustang, but didn't care for it much. I've been using Reaper and find it easier to use and more intuitive.

That being said, this page may help.

Ableton also has some tutorials in the application itself that help with just getting started.

Definitely go through the tutorials on the right hand side. Also, good videos for getting started in Live Lite HERE (http://www.ableton.com/getting-started) at Ableton's site. The videos were very helpful for me.
