From Our Research Team:

Pro Tools Clinic Has The Cure!

We think that Mitch Gallagher's Pro Tools Clinic: Demystifying LE for Macintosh and Windows is the best Pro Tools LE book available, period. We also know that Mitch is one of the foremost experts on pro audio and music technology - as well as one of the best writers on the topic out there. In fact, when we recently had the chance to hire him as Editorial Director to head up our publications, we jumped at it.

But now we face a dilemma. Since Mitch works here, you might think we're simply flattering him by featuring his book here at Sweetwater. But nothing could be farther from the truth. We'll repeat: This is simply the best Pro Tools book out there.

With no prior knowledge whatsoever, you'll learn the ins and outs of music production in Pro Tools LE. Mitch generously gives you the benefit of his 25 years in the music business as a studio musician, recording engineer, and music technology expert. You'll appreciate his clear and straightforward writing (honed during his years as editor/writer for Keyboard and EQ magazines) and the 700-plus screenshots, tutorials, and real-world audio examples he provides. These aren't just "listen-to this" examples, these are real tracks that you'll be working on along with Mitch, learning Pro Tools in easy step-by-step fashion.

With Mitch Gallagher as your mentor, all you have to do is sit down at your DAW with Pro Tools Clinic and begin - by the time you finish, you'll know how to record, edit, and mix music professionally in Pro Tools LE.

Pro Tools Clinic Features:
  • Rather than simply describing Pro Tools features, this book provides examples and tutorials designed to get the reader recording, editing, and mixing music right away.
  • Includes a CD-ROM of audio examples and lessons.
  • Contains over 700 photos with screen shots.
  • 217 pages
  • Softcover

In January 2000, Mitch assumed the Editor's chair at EQ magazine.

Has saved me a few headaches.

by Andy H. from Parkersburg, WV

Music Background: musician, recording engineer
Written very well and easy to understand. I use it as a quick reference when something unexpected happens and the clients are waiting on me to get something done. It sits on my desk right next to my 0... read more [+]03 rack. Has both MAC and PC options in there, so make sure you are reading for the right OS options or you will be looking for a menu that isn't there. close [-]

This book is so important for understanding Pro Tools. Real world applications and a comfortable writing style make it the fast track for being the master of your own Pro Tools DAW.

I wrote Pro Tools Clinic to be the instruction book I wish I would have had around when I was learning Pro Tools.

This book is ok.It doesnt really cover anything you wouldnt be able to find out by yourself.It resembles the low educational value of the sweetwater videos.

I don't care where the author works----this is a

terminology like pan, bus, inserts,

touch of humor from time to time to keep it
from reading like a textbook. close [-]

Only spent 10 bucks on my first purchase, but you treated me as if was spending a grand. Being an independent business owner, I know all to well the importance of dedicated customer service which is the best way to win over the corporate chains. Tootsie Rolls always win me over too. I'm sure some much bigger purchases are in our future.
