Hi Vincenzo. 1. I think Pro Tools is available in other languages. However, I don't know if the VoiceOver labels and help tags are in languages other than English.
2. Docs are available in other languages. Slau posted about this today in another thread. 3. There is a Shortcuts guide that lists all of the Pro Tools shortcuts. It is rather large. 4. No tutorial like that exists. 5. The main "manual" for Pro Tools is the Reference Guide. Reference Guides are books that are intended to be comprehensive lists of all known information on a subject, not tutorials. The Pro Tools Reference Guide gives a little background on terminology, but doesn't spend a lot of time explaining recording concepts. All of the information is there, but you might not comprehend it all right away. 6. You can create music like this, yes. The XPand 2 instrument that comes with Pro Tools has lots of these sorts of sounds in it. Another instrument called Hybrid, that is available with the Instrument Expansion Pack, is another great source of electronic sounds, including basses, leads, pads, textures, as well as lots of sounds driven by step sequences and arpeggiators. There are lots of effects in Pro Tools for creating the animated mixes that are common in those styles, but you'll probably need a hardware control surface to successfully record all of that automation. No worries about your message. You obviously know much more English than I do Italian. I understood it just fine, and that's what's important. Congratulations on scoring your new MacBook, and welcome to the list.

So, at this time, I'm using my mac to do all I did with windows; I can send emails, surf the Internet, use iwork and ilife, and much more... So, I'm thinking about buying pro tools 9... But I have some questions to ask you! 1. Is pro tools interface multilanguage or only English? If it is multilanguage, is it available into italian language? 2. The same question, but related to pro tools documentation (readme, reference guide, etc); 3. Are shorcuts described into the pro tools documentation? 4. Does any tutorial exist which explains all the workaround to avoid unaccessible functions and describe in detail what is accessible and what not? 5. I have a very little knowlege about audio; do you think I can approach pro tools? Or do I have to study any other tutorial before appproaching pro tools? 6. I would like to create dance songs (italo dance/eurodance/techno/commercial/house/etc); can a blind user use effects and all is needed to create these kind of songs? OK, I think now is enough; But of course, I'd like to ask you other questions in future time! I am so excited, but i am also afraid a little... PS: Oh my God! I think in this message there are tons of mystakes; I am so sorry, but I am Italian and I am 16; I study English to school and I know it isn't very good! If you want to report me the mystakes, I will appreciate it too much! :-) Vincenzo. -- Caselle da 1GB, trasmetti allegati fino a 3GB e in piu' IMAP, POP3 e SMTP autenticato?
