I'll keep this as short as possible: would someone give me their
opinion on whether Keane's "The Musician's Guide to Pro Tools" or
Franz's "Producing in the Home Studio with Pro Tools" would be
preferable for someone who's doing self-instruction? They both come
with CD's, and both seem to offer an introduction into the system
(after reading one or the other, I'll probably get a more in depth and
less beginner-oriented text)--however, I thought someone here might
have a recommendation on one over the other. Thanks.
