[MrLevi]

This is one of those instances when a ‘thank you’ just feels so inadequate. I’ve gotten so much out of this tutorial and grateful to you for investing the time into making it ...one love!

[FeinLineMusic]

Charles, your videos are so "meditative" with your calmness, clarity, and just incredible teaching. Thanks for being out there in the YouTube Universe - you're easily one of the best. Cheers from NYC.

[foxyladay]

Your tutorials are the absolute best, I genuinely think I would be lost as a beginner without them so THANKYOU.

[ourrecklesstruth]

This guy is such a brilliant teacher! He hits every area and potential stumbling block and thinks of all the tiny queries or things which may confuse you along the way and addresses them there and then, in detail. Fantastic video!

[CoolHandLuke]

As a longtime singer/songwriter just getting back into music and diving into Logic Pro X as a tool for knocking together demos, Charles tutorials here are nothing short of fantastic. Calm, methodical and extremely useful.

[laradaily]

i learned so much and understood everything?! my adhd ass was engaged the WHOLE TIME and i understood IMMEDIATELY! incredible. tysm!

[FreddyLBon]

I have been working with Garage band up until now until I met up with an old musician/producer friend who told me my music mixes were not up to the same standards of the videos I put out on YouTube and persuaded me to move up to Logic Pro. I have now watched you Part 1 & 2 videos and find them really cool and pleasant to follow. They're a great help in my transition. You come across very well and I'll be watching all the others in the next few days before remixing the last track I'm about to put out. A massive thanks!

[ashshkapoor]

Sir, you're a good man, a gentleman and a scholar.

[johannesvandongen]

Over the last two years, worked on my Mac with Cubase, covering the pandemic. Not realizing, Logic Pro made such a huge step forward since i started. l will switch to Logic Pro, to create new work. l Uploaded a lot to soundcloud, "Komoto Project". All Cubase stuff. am still trying to make more music, even l am 68, and counting.
Your cool and clear, quiet explanation helps me so much.

[jeromelerner]

Hey Charles. I want to thank you for your intro tutorials on Logic Pro X. Have been a composer/songwriter all my life. I am just venturing into recording my work after recently retiring as a physician. You are an excellent teacher, clear, concise and easy to follow. I ordered my MacBook Pro which will arrive in two days loaded with Logic Pro X. I feel more confident opening it up and finding my way around thanks to you. Will continue to watch your videos.

[amaraomega]

You are a great teacher. You made a hobby. Can’t thank you enough! Hope someone paid you for this teaching. I would ❤

[iforgot]

Just
The way you explain the information i.e. what's important, is very nicely worded.
Thank you for finding the time & making your videos.

You are a true teacher.. Seriously not everyone has this gift Charles! You can transfer your knowıledge so smoothly and easy to follow.. I've watched lots of videos about the same things and non of them could explain these informations as basically and clearly as your video. I appreciate you a million times for putting so much effort!

[manualofalternativemusic]

Your tutorials are saving me! I’ve just moved from cubase to logic because I’ve got a new m1 mac, been enjoying it a lot! (Actually more than cubase)

[KristinThompson]

Loving your videos! Just watched 101 and now on this one. I looked through MANY videos (that I couldn't follow) and then I found YOU. Thank you so much for how you organized them, the pace, and the great explanations. Detailed without being boring (and I am easily bored). I'm just amazed.

[shekaranand]

THE BEST TEACHING FOR Beginners
THANK YOU SO MUCH BROTHER
...UR SUBSCRIBER from ..India... Hyderabad👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[christyclydemusic]

Thank you, Charles. Easily the best tutorials on the subject on YouTube. Your English is very nice and understandable for not-native English speakers. I also like the way you're not trying to seduce the audience (your students) in tutorials. Are you and your wife still in Berlin? Your teaching skills are great. You're the most structured and well organized. I got a lot of relevant vocabulary from you.

[Elhombre]

Hello Charles, I recently decided to try Logic and use the 90-day free trial to see if I could get back into music making. I used to have a Windows laptop and have been using FL Studio prior to Logic. Even though I'm a poor student, your videos have convinced me to buy the program once my free trial is up. They are extremely informative and I've already learned a great deal from your last tutorial video from 2020. Thanks a lot for putting these together, they are very helpful and the insight you gain is top quality!

[DanielFMcGuinness]

So helpful, thanks so much for putting this and other videos together! Really enjoyed your original music too ☺
