Smart school... I've used DP since before the "D" and never looked back. This ain't no Garageband, but that also means it'll do pretty much anything you want it to do. DP, or any other high-end sequencer (Logic, Cubase, you name it) will require hours of extensive use and multiple readings of the manual. MOTU manuals are pretty darn good, so read it cover-to-cover with the program open. Yeah, it'll take a long time, but it's also a very powerful program. The aptly named Getting Started manual will actually get you off to a good start, but if you REALLY wanna know what's under the hood, the manual is the one and only place.
There's apparently also a book by Berklee school of Music that some people like, haven't read it. Search for "Digital Performer" on Amazon and I'm sure you'll find it. But, like I said, you already paid for the best book on DP, I say use it. -------------------- Kubi

oh, and the Digital Performer Forum at www.osxaudio.com is a great place to get more info and help. But you'll make no friends if you didn't RTFM first...

Hmmm that's werid I go to Berklee and I haven't heard of any books on DP at all.
although we have trainging sessions in the library but they're all over for this semester. and yeah I'll just read the manual I guess and I can use Cubase and protools NP and logic is slightly more logical than DP to me. oh and for the record garage band blows |
