ProTools tutorials for Logic veterans?

Post by progger »

I'll probably need to answer my own questions out of the necessity of time constraints, but I thought I'd ask this smart community anyway. I'm curious if any of you happen to be aware of any Pro Tools tutorials geared specifically toward veterans of Logic Pro. My band had a lovely time tracking our new record last week, and while I won't be mixing/mastering it myself, I'm at least going to do the preliminary editing (choosing takes, flying sections from one take to another as necessary for basic fixes, maybe splicing takes based on section, etc). I'd have no problem doing it in Logic, which I've been using for... damn... seventeen years already?! But, of course, the sessions are all in PT, and I want to keep them there for the sake of my engineer buddies who will be working on it later.

I'm planning on doing Avid's standard introductory tutorials, although I'm really hoping I can skip anything designed for the bedroom beat-maker prosumer non-musician. No disrespect intended toward that market, I know they're probably what pays for Avid's C-suite's private jets... :thinking:

In such cases my first look is usually Groove3. Their tutorials are most of the time very helpful and often targeted to a specific problem like editing, mixing, advanced fx you name it. I would suppose their must be something for Pro Tools that suits your needs.
I prefer that to any random YT "tutorials" where you don't know what the guy doing it really knows. And Groove 3 tutorials are well structured.IMO
You probably know that anyway but just in case...

I'll look into that, thank you Markus! I've found a couple that seem promising, and thankfully my needs will be pretty straightforward... basically just listening and copy/paste/splicing clips from one take to another. No need to get into comping take stacks or routing effects sends. Although those are the concepts that will probably translate the most directly... it's getting used to a whole new set of key commands that's gonna take a while!

Brian, if you have a Stream Deck, you could paste those key commands into it; and then, you'd have everything you need at the push of a button. The set up could be done in an hour or two, but that would be easier and faster than learning and memorizing key commands.

And of course, you could also set it up for Logic Pro, as well as a lot of other apps.

Best,

Geoff
