Hi there, I have two questions: (1) My initial question is: What electronic circuit simulation software would you recommend ? (I have supplied 10 possible answers below) (2) The reason for my first question is that i'd like to watch a series of videos showing how to design circuits and .... ho…

LTSpice is a professional tool for design and simulation, and is free.

But not a good start with first impressions. Maybe the paid version will have the component rotate featu…

A few days ago I downloaded the latest version of LTSpice and am running it on Win7 Pro, with no problems. I assume you did "new schematic" and picked a part before trying ctrl-R?
