 Not for Computers with Windows Vista
I bought this to try to help me decide whether I should buy the full Pro Tools (in contrast to Adobe Audition). Turns out that you have to buy Pro Tools first before using this "skill pack," and as I later found out, Pro Tools doesn't work with Windows Vista. A complete waste of money.
 DA BOMB!!!
This book is aussum. I'm like somewhat of a protools newbie. I've been using off and on for about a year now. Honestly, until now, I was a bit intimidated by the tool. I tried learning how to do things by reading the Reference manual that comes with pro tools. Its useless. The way to learn is through example. And that's exactly what this author gives you, example after example!! I was truly amazed by this wonderful, and enlightning book. For the past years, I did not know what all the different buttons in the edit window meant. He goes through almost all of them, in great detail. His visual aids are super good. He not only gives you pictures in the book, but he provides you with actual session files that you have to manipulate. I'll tell ya, I was having the hardest time taking tracks and duplicating its contents so that it extended x measures long. After reading this book, I was able to do this in like 20 mins!!! If you need a protools jumpstart this is your answer right here!!!!
Great book from a great Master
This is the book that you need if you want to learn and master the Protools and the art of recording. The author is one of the great masters of our time.
Easy Practical!
Finally a good protools book!
br /Easy to understand, short, good price, excellent exercises and updated.

 Fantastically done introduction to Pro Tools Editing...
The "Skill Pack" series from Thomson is a new series of tutorial books that combines a CD of session data with a step-by-step book of exercises. This particular Skill Pack is a well-done, well thought out grouping of tutorials that covers virtually all editing techniques available in Pro Tools. After working through this book, the novice Pro Tools user will be able to do any sort of arranging that his/her imagination (or producer!) may dictate.
br /
br /The book starts with an overview of all of the edit modes and tools and how to use them in practical ways. This progresses to a chapter covering LOTS of stuff I had not seen elsewhere on "Integrating the Edit Modes and Edit Tools". Then there's a jump to more advanced techniques in Grouping, looping and Tempo/timing, even covering an introduction to Beat Detective (the enigma and savior!).
br /
br /The author uses memory locations in Pro Tools in order to move from tutorial to tutorial within each chapter, which is a GREAT way to pack a lot of material in without losing the reader. The other Thomson Pro Tools skill pack on mixing does this as well. This technique works WONDERFULLY well in a tutorial book such as this one.
br /
br /Overall, this book succeeds in it's purpose of developing "a fundamental understanding of the design and philosophy of editing audio in Pro Tools" along with "Real-world practical application of editing techniques". The Pro Tools beginner or early intermediate user will greatly benefit from this book. On the other hand, there's not really much here that advanced Pro Toolers will not already know, but that's not the point of the book.
br /
br /Congratulations, Michael White and Thomson, on delivering the goods in this installment of the Pro Tools "Skill Pack" series.
