Favorite non RTFM sources for gear, DAW's, etc?

I am a dedicated member of the RTFM club but it would be hard to ignore the glut of other resources exploring everything from plug-ins, rack year, pedals, DAW's, etc. YouTube, forums, blogs, online "classes", etc. The best of them combine excellent information & humor in my opinion.

Anybody want to shout out some of your favorites?

this is your second non-sequiter, Dina.... that's not a crime, however this one has a link to your college essay business and we're not okay with that on our site. Don't solicit your business here. If you do it again we'll ban you. Thank you, drive through.

Well, I never RTFM'd REAPER or QuartzAudiomaster or N-Track and have used (and still use 2) of those three and I do quite alright with them, enough to have my bandmates think my demos sound like produced album cuts at least.

Of course, everything I learn is from trial and error - then verification after the fact.
