Well, especially now, if you know how to work the software, you can make really great and professional sounding songs, even if you aren't in a real studio. Where the magic really happens is during the mixing and mastering process. I went to Dubspot, a music production/DJ school in New York City, and my instructor played us a song of his he had created, pre-mixing/mastering and post-mixing/mastering - the difference is startling. The mixing/mastering brings life to the song, making it sound fuller, well-rounded, and complete. Pre-mixing/mastering, everything sounds very flat.
