Quiet old?
It all came through pretty clear - but I realized this was for LOGIC 8!! I found this nser Voiceovers with Logic. So I was sure this would be a recent clip. But Logic 8 - is this up to date in any way?

Very helpful and useful.
I have been looking for a series like this, somehow this passed by me on Groove 3 until today. Software is a bit our of date here, some things in different places in earlier versions of Logic, but the knowledge is easily transferrable to update to current (or closer to, at least). Eli at his best, as always here. Loved it.
