+1 on checking Youtube for tutorial videos. Also, make sure to try a lot of things yourself and when you get stuck, check the manual for the solution. That's how I learned. http://flstudio.image-line.com/help/

In case you end up buying a copy so you can start saving your projects, you can get 10% discount on your order from image-line with this promo link for new customers: https://support.image-line.com/jshop/shop.php?offe...

Just make sure you get the right version. The demo is basically the same as the Producer Edition, except for some of the generators like Sytrus and Directwave that are only available in the XXL version. You can compare the versions here: http://flstudio.image-line.com/documents/features....

Good luck!

My best answer would be to go to youtube and search for some tutorial videos. I did that a month or two ago and learned a bit about it.
