Editorial Reviews

Review
"Well recommended for those serious about software" - Lighting & Sound Jan 07

I have a lot of Pro Tools books, but none relate the examples and lessons to real-world record productions as well as Multi-Platinum Pro Tools by Nathan Adam and Brady Barnett. This book's main focus is on advanced editing and tuning processes that make Pro Tools the defacto standard for record making.-Barry Rudolph, New Toys, April 2007

Book Description
Shows how a real pro uses Pro Tools to make multi-platinum selling records.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, some practical information on how to make my recordings sound more professional, November 16, 2007
I am a songwriter and have a home studio where I demo my songs. Even though I know the mechanics of using pro tools, I was missing the practical knowledge of how to apply all of the nuts and bolts. This book and the other dvds by this same publisher do just that. You are sitting right there next to the engineer with actual raw studio tracks going through the entire post production process. The accomanying DVD/ROM provides you with narration and actual pro tools screen shots so you see and hear what the engineer is doing. This book covers editing and pocketing in extreme detail. I now appreciate pocketing - a term I had heard but never really understood with respect to post production. Now I KNOW how the records I hear sound so insanely tight. There are a lot of tweaks done in post and this book shows you how to do it. The autotuning chapter also is excellent. After so many disappointments with other books that basically rehashed the user's guide this book and all of the other Multi-Platinum Pro Tools products were exactly what I was looking for. They have been my rosetta stone to pro tools. Excellent, excellent, excellent. Get it!

5.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Few Pro Tools Books Of Value, April 30, 2007
Being a professional Recording Engineer in the music industry for 23 years and having used Pro Tools for the last 3 years, finally there is a book written that offers some useful and valuable information. Mostly all of the other Pro Tools books are written for beginners and intermediate users. They seem like edited down versions of the Digidesign documentation that already ships with Pro Tools. The most valuable part of the book to me was showing where to separate audio events before time stretching them. You always want to preserve the transient of the sound and the authors have some very good tips on how to best preserve the original piece of audio. Though editing is the tedious process that many hate to do, it many times is the difference between a good recording and a major label quality recording.

5.0 out of 5 stars I haven't stopped reading it since I got it, July 6, 2008
I would say that it is a very informative book and an easy read.
I read over half the book in 3 days. I would recommend this book for all to have in their reference library.
It's worth keeping near your Pro Tools rig
