Hey Jasen, i know how you feel about reading all the cake talking lessons at once. i found fore me it worked best to read the quic start q and a, and lirn a few things at a time. fore enstence lirn about how to play back and record and use afects. i got the hole multy track recording down, lirned how to handel all the basic functions of hed phone mixing and soe on, thin i started to work with all of the mixing functions, and the editing audio. it seems that the quick start worked well fore me, and thin whin i was ready to move on i used the single help docks fore all of the rest. if you are like me, and you try to read the big help totoryial you will forget more than you will learn. good luck with every thing, i know it can bee over whelmming at first but if you take one thing at a time and lirn how to record first and plan every thing out in step by step prosess you will do fine. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jason To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, July 03, 2005 11:14 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Am I in over my head? yeah pretty much the other thing is half the lessons I'm like am I ever going to need to do this?. ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephanie Pieck To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, July 03, 2005 9:01 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Am I in over my head? Hi, I'm new to this list, new to CT and SONAR, and I can agree that starting out is really hard! But I figure there are about fifty lessons in the CT manual. If I do one a week, maybe in a year I'll have a clue! Stephanie
