An engineers guide
 This
book is intended to be an easy-to-use, practical
guide to all that Pro Tools has to offer. If you
are a beginner, you should have absolutely no problem
setting up your system and getting started. If
you already use Pro Tools regularly, you should
find the answers to questions you have always wanted
to know. Either way, the ultimate goal is to give
all Pro Tools users a reliable reference guide
to any issues they may encounter.
“J has
worked with me on many recording projects, and
I trust his knowledge of Pro Tools completely.
Whether you are a novice or skilled user, his
book will enhance your efficiency and ability,
as well as heighten your understanding of Pro
Tools. I believe that this book will be an essential
guide for every engineer to keep close at hand.”
