This is it right here. Limitations and being able to wrap your head around every piece of the tool you’re using. It’s so easy to get lost in tools like Ableton. They can put you in a headspace that is always fiddling and not actually focused on making music. I think modular gear does this to people too. My friends that go down the modular rabbit hole sometimes don’t realize they haven’t made anything but bloops with their 10,000+ modular. And not in an awesome Autechre/Richard Devine way that has structure and a goal.

Some modular synth producers I've seen like venetian snares use renoise to pull it all together [1]

Aphex has had some things to say about it too although for 'vordhosbn' at least it sounds like he's been more happy with a program I never heard of until now called Playerpro [2] [3]
