Product Review

This clear and concise guide takes the reader by the hand through the first steps in the use of Pro Tools, the audio system born over twenty years ago and adopted by some of the best professionals worldwide.

The title (stopwatch in hand) is accurate for those who can’t wait to get stuck into their new software. However, this guidebook is crammed full of so many theoretical and practical tips, tricks, and points to explore at leisure that you are sure to enjoy many hours (and cups of coffee) poring over these pages.

This is an essential reference tool for anyone taking Pro Tools for a quick test drive and will be cherished by everyone who is on the road to becoming a better sound engineer.
