Learning how to record and produce incredibly professional sounding tracks in Logic has never been easier thanks to the Logic 10.5 Video Tutorial.

ProAudioEXP.com's David Wills spends over 3.5 hours walking you through every feature of Apple Logic's workflow from setting up your software to work with your audio interface and MIDI controllers to creating radio-ready mixes and everything in between. DAWs 101 is a module in the training that uses easy to understand animations to teach you how a DAW works and how to use subgroups, EQ, Compression, Effects, Automation...everything you'll need to know so you can produce incredibly professional sounding tracks in Logic.

If you have been getting frustrated trying to learn Logic from just using the 1200 page manual, then sit down, grab a cup of your favorite beverage and look over the shoulder of a professional audio engineer with 30 years in the business putting Logic through its paces.
