5 out of 5 stars Easy to read, Easy to use   September 15, 2008
Like all the other books in this series, this one gives you the need to know information for Pro Tools. It's easy to read and understand. Better than all the others.


5 out of 5 stars True all-in-one   August 12, 2008
I am finding this book is living up to its name - 8 books in 1. I have other ProTools reference guides, but I am finding this is the first place I start when looking for a solution to a problem. For pros, it won't replace the Digitools training, but for serious amateurs like myself it is well worth the price.


4 out of 5 stars What you need to start   May 4, 2008
Hi There,

just to share with you that this book gives what is announced:

learn how to use protools for people that are starting.

moreover I was surprised to see a lot of additional chapter covering things such as home studio, effects, mics...

It also provides very good sections around mixing and mastering.

I recommend this book :-)

cheers



2 out of 5 stars Too much but not enough   September 22, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

A huge book, but I found it very lacking. If you have a question, it might be in here, but I never found answers to most of mine. Almost impossible as a guide to anyone who doesn't already know a lot about Pro Tools. Very disappointed.


5 out of 5 stars Very good reference for beginners   February 22, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is a very good reference for newbies to pro tools like me. The tutuorial dvd that came with my ignition pack was so drab. I honestly fell asleep 3 times watching it before I finally made it all the way through. This book allows you to go at your own pace and build a solid foundation.
