I absolutely hate manuals. Let me say it again… HATE. Typically dry, boring, bad illustrations, written from a prototype hardware product or 0.9 software version that never includes the final fixes (no wonder they seem so poorly written). That’s why I was so happy to discover HowAudio.com, whos’ motto is, “cause reading the manual sucks.” Ha! I knew I wasn’t alone. HowAudio.com is dedicated to providing the highest quality, easy to use on-line, video based training for the audio recording enthusiast as well as the working professional, and they got it right!
If the time and energy required to read the manual has become your learning disability, kiss your “mental block” goodbye. Looking through the HowAudio.com audio titles is like being the proverbial “kid in a candy store”. And they are consistently adding new titles to their library to ensure that you have all the tools at your disposal to create the best music.
