I want to learn music software...

I want to create music, EDM for example.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Advice from someone who has experience in this field would be great.

I'd prefer something free, but has a structured 'course' I can follow as a complete beginner. I'd prefer more mediocre software that has a lot of learning resources than top tier software where you have to scour the internet troubleshooting on your own.

And a forum where I can ask questions would be great.

Mods move my thread if there is a better forum to post this in plox <3

Nice : I got Mixcraft can give it you if you want when torrentz were widely available...I just played about with it and tried to replicate tunes I loved, mainly grimey 2step, lots of functioality to just mess about with. I would say that trying to replicate something would be a good starting point. I didnt even used a template at all just laid down the drums and snares manually since grimey 2step has awkward patterns anyway. Then you can mess and add filters w/e, but yeah im not a expert or anything but spent at least 100 hours and damaged my ears.
