Fantastic

What a great book!!!!!!!!!!! I own at least 4 books on pro tools and I ALWAYS come back to this one. This is an amazing book for the beginner/intermediate user. TRUST ME. I have all the power and pro-tools for dummies books and this one is SOOO much easier to follow. You won't be disappointed!!!!

This is one of the best reference books for Pro tools!!!

I found this book to be a great reference book to have even though I am a Pro Tools instructor. It has everything for the beginer and for the more advanced user, which makes it a real bible then!Everything is clearly written, with great illustration that make it the simplest thing to read for this kind of books.As far as teaching pro tools, I find it's the best book to recommend to my students, and always had great feedback about it.It is, to me, the best of the lot in the pro tools books, the most clear, and also the fun one, you can see that M. Valenzuela wrote this with humor and no pretention at all!
