First three section were basic but informative. The fourth section is starting to get into decent material, hopefully 5, 6, an 7 will keep with what 4 has started.

A great course for anyone that wants to learn the workflow of a mix engineer. Every plugin is explained well. Well structured, i never felt lost or overwhelmed by all the tracks. Felt like a great journey.

Explains everything well. I'm just trying to fill in the gaps of what I already know. Love this course so far!

I Have leaned a lot since starting this course. I have always wanted to do this course, but it was always too expensive or too long . However, since I found this at Udemy I am so happy and leraning a lot. Tutor is very good and explains everything in detail so you can follow along . It is a very good course. I will recommend.

Why are you teaching like we are expert in this. Why all things have been arranged earlier. I need to learn fron start as you have mentioned. You said there will be no issues for another daw users. But i think When we are a learner we need to clarify the Concept First then the Toolbar. But unfotunately, Protools interface is asbsolutely different in compare to Fl Studio. I do not think this benficial for me. I want my money back.
