This is a great way for a beginner to get started using Studio One v 2.0. I'm a good musician, but a lousy sound engineer. I was concerned about finally having to make the jump from stand-alone, computer-free, multi-track recorders into the digital age. I went kicking and screaming, but after seeing reviews about how easy and intuitive Studio One is supposed to be, I decided to give it a try. After loading onto my computer, I just sat there and looked at it not really knowing what to do next. So, I went and bought this book. Yea! It took me step-by-step through all the basics and allowed me to more easily figure out how to use a DAW. So now, I feel like I can actually record music again without being so afraid of the software. Thanks!
