Pro-tools reminds me of the time I took up bass. Initially easy to get around on. But then you listen to others who really know how to play bass and understand how deep an instrument it really is.

The basics are simple. If you’ve come in contact with a 4 track you can work pro-tools. In fact the program I was using before seems more arcane than protools. Some people don’t like the way it sounds but non-the less, protools is an industry standard, I guess.

I’m still practicing, and am getting better at it I suppose. Better than where I was 3 weeks ago.

I guess the big thing about this DAW is the keyboard shortcuts to move effeiciently as possible. It really is about efficiency. And organizatioin. Consistent file names and stuff.

So to use protools as a multitrack recorder, and editor, you’re there man.

The effects and the routing, the midi & file conversion stuff is the next step.

Then I guess integrating all of it to any other studio sputnik equipment is the step after that.
