probably Acid.
fundamentally, they are all the same. once you learn one, you can eek your way through others.
Im sure you'll get a better reply in here eventually.

10 million votes for ableton.
a kid could use it, and it can do everything the others can do, plus much much more.
...and there's a messageboard full of people who will answer all of your tech questions.

Reason or Ableton.
not only are they good for just starting out, but they're used by professionals the world over.
they're two totally different styles though.
personally, i want to marry Reason, and perhaps bear its children, though Live may be my mistress.. i just don't know it well enough yet.

I would say Fruity Loops, but its simplicity is endearing and breeds laziness (in my situation anyway). I would go for Reason. Hands fooking down///////////

Chalk another one up for Ableton.... No quarks for me still using v 4.0.4

run the tutorials in the program, and then go do more on the website.
you could learn it in a weekend. seriously.

If you want to know it spend a few $$$ and have Mike Goodwin show you how to use it...

I use Fruity as my sequencer and Ableton for mixing/effects. It's a nice setup and it works pretty seamlessly.

i have a course available with ebooks, samples, and ableton templates if you are interested.
...for example, here is how to juggle a record by automating the clips with midi: http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=33790
you can program juggles and mixes, save them as midi files, and then can have robo q-bert tear shit up at the touch of a button.
