Getting Started on ProTools

This week at the studio I got to sit drivers seat and run Pro Tools on one of Darrens sessions. I have learned how to turn on all of the gear and set up the system for recording. I now know the difference between mixing boards and pre-amps; mixing boards are fine tuning devices for mixing together audio tracks, more as you would in analog recording. Now with computer editing systems, mixing boards have become primarily digital. Pre-amps are generally single input devices with effects to help get cleaner better audio recordings. Unfortunately I only had one day at the studio this week, but luckily it was a good one.
