Hi guys. I'm considering purchasing one of the products I mentioned.. But I'm in a trouble picking up one device.
cost, easiness to use software, portability,...... can you recommend just one device with specific reasons for beginner like me?

You mean I can make music by myself with launchpad if I have ableton or some other programs? I wanna buy maschine but I got to know that it is way too expensive. Out of ma budget.

if you are into djing, then a different controller is for you.
you're right but I haven't thought about that.,.. but now the cost is the top priority now. maschine is out of my budget.

As far as I believe then Maschine would probably be the best option for you. Its interface is not very complicated and anyone can easily pick it up. Its software really helps it to integrate with the hardware.
