5.0 out of 5 stars Your Logic Pro 8 bible., 4 May 2008
By Mr. D. Ward "mad mac" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you want to get to grips with using Logic Pro 8 than this is the book for you. Right from the word go David Nahmani gets you making music and this hands on approach is used throughout the book. The book is clear and concise from beginning to end. The lessons are thorough without a step missed out and given to you in bite sized pieces so you never feel lost or overwhelmed. The numerous screen shots also act as a further guide to help you along. At the end of every of every chapter is a lesson review, a set of questions and answers, that nicely summarizes the key points of the lesson. I also liked the section on trouble shooting and the inclusion of a glossary of terms and the summary of keyboard shortcuts. This is a book you'll want to keep because once you been through the lessons it will make a valuable reference book to dip into again and again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Logic Pro 8 first timer, 30 Aug 2008
By Marcus Borg (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As they say in Dragon's Den, "..let me tell you where I am". My experience - I am new to both Apple and Logic 8, and invested in both as technology was now able to cover my lack of formal music training.
After a months of 'playing' it was clear that the logic Pro 8 manual which comes with the package is well written, but does not offer up any projects or walkthroughs for you. This book does just that.

I thought that I was using maybe 25% of Logic's capabilities starting "raw" and self taught, but having only gone through 3 lessons so far on this book, I am surprised at what I did not know, even on basic inputs.

The DVD is structured with lessons that are logic projects and a few other artifacts to really hold your hand through every keystroke. Only on two occasions was I confused at what was being asked of me, which was partly due to my wireless keyboard not having all the keys that a full one does.

Certainly after lesson 3, you already feel you have made some significant progress and already understand editing audio, basic mixing, song construct and multi takes etc.

I will aim to update this when I am through all 12 lessons, but given this is probably about 16 hours equivalent of classroom quality training, I would not hesitate to recommend to new users like myself. The book forms part of Apple's Pro training programme and is classified 'Beginner/Intermediate'.
