 Start With This Book January 5, 2009
An excellent and probably essential book for getting started with Logic 8, it effectively and efficiently steps the user through the application's interfaces, tools and working methods, and has good tutorial materials and lessons, including scoring to video. It is not comprehensive, however, and only briefly touches on the powerful soft synth and processing tools in Logic 8. That would require a whole other volume. If you are getting started with Logic as a DAW, or upgrading from Logic 7, get this book.

I have been messing with computer recording for a few years now and just got a Mac and Logic. I used Cakewalk programs and FL Studio prior to getting Logic, but when I tried to use Logic without the book I was pretty lost. The book takes you through the steps to use all the main features of Logic and also explains basic recording techniques that I was not familiar with, but are the difference between an amatuer recording and a pro version. The section on mixing was very helpful and especially useful with songs on the DVD. I learned a lot. I only wish that along with the DVD came video showing you how to use the program. Reading each step and following along with the program takes a while, but really its the only way to learn since you have to push the buttons to hear what happens.
