is taking this course right now, spending 20 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be medium.
The titel FREE is confusing since once enroled it says you have a 7 day free ( when it is first understood as 4 weeks )
very confusing and discouraging to continue! Can NOT even continue after the introduction video. Sad. Since I already have had my basic pro tools years ago. This is NOT a good system. And very sad
