First of all, my apologies since English is just my second language. Second, please take into account my own level regarding DAW software: I'm just a hobbyst. I began a few weeks ago by trying several softs before getting to Logic Pro 9. I decided to buy Logic Pro because of my previous experience with GarageBand. After getting Logic Pro 9 first thing I could appreciate was that it was completely different from GarageBand. I mean much, but MUCH more complex! I was going from here to there in order to get all kind of tutorials, both video and written ones, without any success at all (they did not accomplished their proposal at least for me). Finally, I got a sample from the book "Apple Pro Training Series: Logic Pro 9 and Logic Express 9" by David Nahmani. By just reading the first chapter and completing the corresponding exercise I was completely aware that it was the kind of book I was looking for: detailed, clearly explained, results completely agreeing with the book figures and views, concise, and so on (just read the many comprehensive reviews in this site). My first concern was to get it as soon as possible, i.e. the e-book version was by far the better one for me, being a foreigner living outside the US. However, there was a big problem: this book is highly dependent on the additional contents that come with it as a DVD with the paper version of the book. The electronic version just make a little warn by noting that a link to a web place in the back of the final part of the book would allow the buyer to get the same content as the printed version. By quickly reading the only few adverse reviews of the book, all of them were related to the point of another buyers being not able of downloading any file at all. Really a difficult decision to do: to got right now the e-book version and eventually get the DVD content, or to buy the printed version and wait at least a couple of weeks for the book and the DVD to arrive to my home (do not forget the shipping price, almost $25 additional bucks for an expedited way of shipping). Well, to make it short: by tossing a coin I decided to buy the e-book version. With my heart beating a little quicker than usual, I checked the web link, I tried it, and finally, believe or not, I got the thirteen files from Peachpit publisher's site in no time at all. A couple of hours for the almost 1.6 GB of additional contents! So, I highly recommend this book for any new comer to Logic Pro 9. Additionally, without leaving aside another reviewers opinions, my own experience downloading the accompanying files was really a premium one. And remember that you can always get your book back to Amazon and get the printed version if you are unlucky downloading the DVD content. So, get it now and start enjoying a great beginners book for Logic Pro 9!

All of the other 5 Star reviewers are correct. This book has it all, from a technical standpoint. If you are new to Logic, it is an absolute must. I'm VERY impressed at how quickly and succinctly the author teaches the fundamentals of using Logic. And the fundamentals are vast. Over 450 pages including a ton of information on MIDI recording, editing, programming, and hardware configuration. Well worth the price, even though I'm so used to getting books for cheap, cheap, cheap on Amazon, I actually hesitated for a minute to spend the $35 or so. Looking back, however, this is an absolute no brainer. A drop in the bucket compared to the immediate and overwhelming value of content made available here. Also, just a word to my fellow newbie, it turns out that the help tutorials in Logic are also VERY helpful. Probably not as helpful as this book, but definitely a great source for high level context. For instance, all I knew was that Logic was very robust and could likely "do it all," but was confused as to what that really meant. I watched a bunch of YouTube videos where guys are using synthesizers, bass synthesizers, MIDI sequencers, drum machines and more to create amazing music. Turns out, Logic contains its own digital version of each of the aforementioned components and more. So, all I really need to get started is a MIDI controller (or I can just use my computer keyboard), and then, in the event that I do buy a MIDI controller (which I will) or that I want to add guitars, vocals, etc., an audio interface. But I wouldn't have really known that without reading through the Help content in Logic. And I've only really scratched the surface. Yet, I was able to immediately surmise what I wanted to know about all the hardware components - and their digital manifestations in Logic - as well as some really awesome additional topics like History of the Synthesizer, and The Nature of Sound, etc. So, to recap, buy this book. But also, don't forget the inherent documentation in the software itself. Really worthwhile, both.

This book has it down to the basics, - so no one gets left behind. It was no time before I could tell I was learning Logic Pro 9 and learning it well. From configuring a system to get things running correctly, to the expanse of tools that Logic puts into the hands of the Musician or the Sound Engineer. Clearly worded and organized Chapters have you producing music, rhythms and sounds right from the start. I know this is the book that I'll want to keep nearby as I create and master all the facets of music in Logic Pro 9. There's fun ahead too, as I moved on to something I beforehand didn't know existed: 'Ultrabeat!' If you haven't heard of that one you will be glad to discover this completely cool way to put a foundation tempo under your music. This feature plus the details laid out in the chapter on setting up Drum Patterns will carry you very well into the future. As I mentioned, I'm a beginner to Logic Pro 9, moving up from Garageband, and now I feel set free to create. Logic Pro 9 is a music production program without limits. In my opinion, The Apple Pro Training Series: Logic Pro 9 by David Nahmani is the best book not only to get started but get going strong with this powerhouse of a program.

David's book goes so far beyond what the manual shows. The examples are great and it is written in a very informal, conversational style. It's really like having a master sit down with you and show you how to use the program. I would be lost with many things had it not been for this book. Highly recommend getting it! The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that I wish it dove more into locking video with audio, SMPTE, etc... That would be a great addition to the next edition!
