Inside Soundtrack Pro covers all aspects of Apple's brand new audio application. You will learn to build sound effects, foley and score for a fictional movie trailer, and do it all non-destructively!

As both a stand-alone application and as part of Apple's Final Cut Studio, Soundtrack Pro allows producers, video and film editors, motion graphics artists and DVD authors to work with on multitrack projects and audio file projects (with an actions based waveform editor), to score, sweeten, add sound effects, and find and fix problematic audio.

The training is appropriate for all users (both brand new to sound design as those familiar with other audio applications).
