Product Description
In this Apple-certified guide, author David Dvorin demonstrates the powerful advanced features in Logic Pro that have led many of the world's top producers, composers, and engineers to make this program the centerpiece of their music studios. Starting with advanced set-up in the brand-new interface in Logic Pro 8, he teaches you important skills like music production and editing, notation, and scoring to picture. Along the way, he reveals real-world techniques for mixing, editing, and producing, and shares professional secrets for streamlining production workflows and constructing a mix to meet the most exacting standards. Experienced Logic users and newcomers alike will find invaluable methods for manipulating tempo and pitch, fine-tuning audio and MIDI tracks, managing signal flow, and getting the most out of Logic's revolutionary audio instruments. A companion DVD includes the lesson and media files needed to complete the book's exercises, plus free trial Logic plug-ins from leading manufacturers.

Great Amazon Price as usual.
This Book is written by a pro and made easy for us to follow, he knows his stuff and teaches us some invaluable tricks.
Apple Logic Pro is going to be around for a long time, like everything Apple touches it shines and this book is a great start to help you learn alot more that the basics.
Lastly try maprovideo.com, I can't think of better tutorials at better prices on the net than those pros teach.
I Highly recommend this book.
 Beyond the basics... but JUST beyond. February 10, 2008

I thought i was going to find inside this book a large amount of tips & tricks about which plug-ins and shortcuts are most useful to take advantage of logic pro at the max. But wasn't it. If you are already a logic user, don't buy this book. You already know everything if you have spent some time trying the different features inside logic. It's just a technical book, it's just like the manual sorted in different way. Manual is sorted by windows/options. This book is sorted by necessities, and the information contained is almost the same.
A good book if you are a bit lazy to explore logic. You have a dvd with examples that you could do yourself. Not a good book if you already know which plug-ins are available in LP8 and what use them for.
A must-have for all LP8 users! January 16, 2008

This is an excellent book. But it's still just an introduction to Logic Pro 8. The reader is treated as a relative beginner without the instructions being over-simplified. It's well worth the read just to get familiar with the new keyboard shortcuts. Most chapters are updated from the previous `Advanced LP7' book, but with all the new navigation techniques explained. There are several chapters that are completely remade with great projects and fascinating results. Even `The Environment' exercise was actually fun. A more advanced book in this series would be much appreciated, with lots of midi editing and mixing techniques. Also, a demonstration of the `MainStage' and `Logic Nodes' programs that come packaged with LP8 now would be helpful.
