Reply to Juggling stylings?

I know all about these constant wars (http://www.djranking s.com/2011/01/2...ton-vs-serato/)

but if I'm looking into getting prepped to play out, and I'm coming from a production background (and am a controllerist, not a turntablist) should I be better off looking at Ableton instead of Traktor?

I have access to both, and have seen both used successfully, but I can't tell any pro's or cons really - just differences...

I see lots of live effects in Traktor, but not in Live (I could be missing some stuff though)

If I want to do stuff like this (which is done on Traktor) can all of this be done with Live? Or when clips are triggered (even with quantization off) do the whole clips play regardless of how long you hold down the button?

I will probably end up using both, but I'm wondering which is better to get invested in...
