It's not as professional as Pro Tools, but it works well for my needs. I basically just record acoustic instruments and then track vocals, harmonies etc on top. There are others on this list that are much more expierenced than I at using this wonderful program, but I will give you the commands I use the most. To configure Amadeus to use markers, you have to go in the preferences and general by pressing command comma. Then do the following in playback behavior set if selection is empty play from insertion point, If selection is not empty play selection, The most important one is this one which is display follows playback this box has to be unchecked. If you don't configure Amadeus like this, you will have great difficulty in dropping markers. I learned this from Eric Caron's podcast on Blind Cool tech. Here are the commands I use most frequently. to drop a marker is P as in Paul to jump between next and previous markers is option right and left arrow. Right arrow with option for next and left with option for prevous. You can also use option left arrow to go to the beginning of a sound. You can also interact with a track by pressing VO shift down arriow and explore the settings there like volume, name the track and paning. To delete a marker just hit delete once you have reached that marker. I know there are more commands that I'm not even thinking of right now. Oh, to record a track command N for new sound. Then press command R and you will see the recording dialog. You can also paste things you have recorded to different tracks, there is a paste special command which I believe is command option V as in Victor. If you would like more assistance, you are more than welcome to write me offlist. I can do a custom podcast for you. I hope this helps get you started. Have a great day.
