Man, I just started learning how to use DAWs, so am looking for tutorials both in spanish and english and I want to tell you this: your YT channel is amazing, you are such a great teacher...probably my favourite one. Thank you very much for sharing and best regards!

That Ultimate guide to reaper you mentioned at the start is very very good👍

I've seen requests for Studio One - any more basics we should cover before we start deep diving?

Awesome video Adam! I really like you calm teaching style. Also I am very much looking forward to your video on tempo in logic, because I still struggle a bit with changing the tempo and how it manipulates the whole track. The smart meter functionality is still a mystery for me as well. 😅

Disappointed that you didn't show me how to do multiple output routing parallel bussing compression dynamic EQ. This video sucks. I'm going back to Audacity!!111010101!xxx122 (This is just a joke comment. Adam and I are friends IRL.)

We never use Mac, so this was a fascinating video. Thanks for sharing.

Only 30 minutes. It's either easier to use, unsophisticated, or bored you into submission early. 😄
