Thank you Groove 3, for helping me get some of the details and understanding of Pro Tools and Reason. You made it a lot easier and a lot more fun. Keep up the good work and I look forward to more video lessons.

Groove 3 video tutorials are the anti-manuals! They are concise, well-paced, clear as cut crystal. The transition from ignorance to creativity is quick and seamless -- gnarly programs that seemed daunting in a 700-pound book are now about as fearsome as a newborn kitten. In the past, I'd learn the nuts-and-bolts basics of powerful platforms like Reason and Logic, then be anxious to start making music. Now, I have the patience to absorb the finer points without my head spinning around like Linda Blair in "The Exorcist." Out, Demons! Groove 3 has saved my ever-living soul!!

I just wanted to thank you very much for the great customer service and timely responsiveness that your team has provided when I had enquired about some products that I lost access to while in transition. Not only did I get a response the same day, I also recovered the exact same material I had purchased over a year ago. I am definitely going to recommend your website wherever I go. You provided that human element to the internet, which is missing in this day and age where responsiveness and customer service often do not work in tandem. I'm staying with you guys for life.

These training videos are the greatest ever...I urge ANYONE, regardless of level of expertise, to purchase these resources! I use Logic, BFD, Pro Tools, Reason, IK Multimedia, Autotune EVO, etc etc, and have gotten more out of your materials than months of books, manuals, competing DVD's etc. "Louisiana Madman" Scott Griggs is the greatest, "non nerd-speak" Logic instructor ever. His Logic EXS 24 tips, and Flextime explanation alone is well worth the price of admission. AAAA+++++++!!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!

The diffrence in learing Pro Tools with the Groove 3 videos and the old fasion way of reading the pdf manual is first of all time, but even more important is the fast workflow when studio time is expensive.
Even the things you THINK you know can be done in a smoother way with the Groove 3 tutorials.
I use it in the studio when I compose with Roy Z or any other artist I write songs with and its also an amazing inspiration source for making your arrangements sound like a million dollar production.
Try your best melody or hook, run it through a couple of the techniques in the tutorial and WOW!!
A lot of my best songs wouldn´t be what they are without Groove 3.

Just made a transaction with Groove3 wherein I made a mistake and ordered the wrong product. Contacted Antony and within minutes the problem was resolved. I've heard other vendors say "Tough Luck Sucker" which meant I had to eat it. Groove3's policy is to understand that they are dealing with musicians who are continual screw-ups and thus developed a "pro-artist" policy. Awesome. Thanks,

I had to just tell you how much I enjoyed the Studio Secrect DVD with Krish Sharma. Finally someone from behind the scenes comes foward in plain simple to understand language and shares some of the stuido basics and tips with us. I had always wondered "What is all this fuss about Neve Pre-amps?" Now I know! Or, when I get to use a real studio and need to mic up drums, "How do I really do that and do it well?" I hope that Krish and others like him will do more like this. I have encouraged my friends to get this DVD as it is a "must have" for the studio enthusiast. I told them I could share my copy with you but I won't! We need to support DVDs like this so we can make it profitable for guys like Krish to do more! Thanks!

Groove 3 is by far the most serious and thorough place to obtain up to date information for your DAW. Their tutorials, customer service, and knowledge is without equal in the industry. They open the doors quickly for the Artist , Producer, and Engineer , allowing the creativity to flow without getting jammed up on the technical end.

I received a 30-day web pass from Sweetwater when I upgraged to Logic Pro. I am so impressed with these videos! They are answering many questions I've had and showing me so much more than I imagined would be available. I was intimidated by having to learn how to use Logic, but this has significantly sped up the learning process and made me excited about all the possibilities for creating music. I already have and will continue to tell others how helpful these videos have been. I'm really grateful for them!

Before I found out about Groove 3 I was ready to spend thousands on a training course to get to grips with Pro Tools. But watching the videos has brought me up to speed in Pro Tools in no time - the material is clearly and simply presented and covers everything I needed to know to get the most out of the software. I'm thrilled! I look forward to the new videos as they come out, covering more advanced techniques each time, and I cant believe the price!

I just wanted to let you know that after having used your video tutorials for the last couple weeks, I am a very satisfied customer. Your instructions are very clear and well put together. With the help of your videos, I’m sure that I cut weeks off the learning curve for my software. Your service is definitely worth the money!

I have just gone through your Pro Tools CD and have to
tell you that it is the first Pro Tools tutorial I have encountered
which, thankfully, does NOT feel obligated to:
1. Play un-listenable
techno-junk music under the voice over, which is usual, but again,
thankfully in your case is not
2. Be hideously self-referential and
fraught with "nerd-speak" phraseology.
Congratulations. You have a fine product.
I especially appreciate the frequent analogies made for the benefit of
us oldsters who cut our teeth (and in my case, even acquired my gray
hair) in the age of tape.

Just thought i would give you some feedback from a very happy customer!
The video I purchased on creating house drum beats is a marvel! I have struggled for years creating decent loops and this video is very good at explaining the process. So much so that with in two hours i was producing more convincing loops than i have ever produced before. Please pass on my thanks to the instructor, his tuition is very clear and easy to follow!

I bought some tutorials from your company and I really really like and learned alot! Thank so much for providing this great movies to understand Logic. I especially liked the ones from Scott Griggs, because of his humor, his playful style of explainig stuff which is actually quite complex, but his voice and dialect makes it living, makes it enjoyable to hear and try thins . I do like all the others very much as well!!! They do a tremendous job! perhaps I did even understand MORE by watching the others, but with Scott Griggs it;s just pure fun - and I'm already 42 years old , classical spianist and arranger and not a young cool funky nerd...

Hi guys, I just purchased the new Logic 9 Tips & Tricks Vol.1 and I friggin' love it! please tell me that the mad swamp tech has a Vol. 2 up his sleeve for immediate release! Thanx for a great product and please give my compliments to Scott!

Hello, I recently purchased Logic Studio 9 and could not wait to get in over my head. That took all of 20 seconds !! I have been searching Borders for books, internet for tutorials. Then it happened...I received YOUR email announcing Scott Griggs Logic 9 Tips and Tricks Vol. 1. I CANNOT say this effectively through an email, but THAAAAAANK YOOOOUU!!! He is the BEST, HANDS DOWN. Simple, to the point and the kind of guy I'd let date my sister. Yes, she has had a few doozies in her day. But REALLY THANKS. I feel MUCH more confident and there is NO better feeling than that ! I am working on a project for a band and your tutorials make ME look like a genius !! The band looks at me like WOW... I'll NEVER tell my secret...

The videos on Groove3 are absolutely incredibly awesome! I have been messing with Pro Tools for 3 years now and take about 20 weeks of classroom courses BUT can afford to take the sequence of courses to get the knowledge needed for our Home/Project Studio. The biggest help in progressing is the Recording & Mixing Section!!! I have been a professional for 36 years but always had sound technicians and didn't pay ANY attention to EQ, Mixing etc. The on-the-fly accessibility of these tutorials is (shall I say) priceless....well I think you get the point. Cant wait to see what new stuff you add to the R & M section! Thanks again and Keep up the GREAT work!

Hello, Few weeks ago I bought 'T-RackS Tutorials' and I must say it's a really good product! The gPlayer works with explorer and firefox, very easy, no install, just double click and watch. I learned a lot from this tutorial and my muscial abilities will benefit from this tutorial. Thanks again!!

The videos have been extremely helpful as I have been
learning Pro Tools. I am taking the Berklee Music course in PT and I still
use the Groove3 videos to supplement that coursework.

I’m about halfway through the new Gioia videos. Great stuff!! It’s wonderful to see Kenny present his magic in an A-to-Z presentation of his method, not just in a “tips and tricks” format.
Kenny’s approach that he demonstrates here -- building the programmed drums and percussion with samples in Pro Tools, rather than in Reason or in some other product – “clicks” for me immediately. I will want to watch these videos several times over to glean every bit of Gioia goodness from them.
Give us more Kenny!!!

I have been watching and I just had to stop and send you a note about how helpful this training is. I have been using Pro Tools for a few years and have
purchased several "good" books on how to get the most out of PT. Let me tell you, your training is far superior to these books. Thank you Thank you!!!! Now Back to my training...

made!"

I just wanted to tell you that I ordered quite a few Logic videos before Christmas and they have been FANTASTIC. I am saving up to get the next two new ones, "Producing Voiceovers in Logic" and "Logic Operator Vol. 1 + 2". Honestly, your videos have accelerated my learning curve exponentially!!!
Please keep producing the great products that you are offering!

I received a free week from Sweetwater. I had purchased Pro Tools with Reason, so my comments refer to those online tutorials. Very good tutorials. Breaking them up into short clips is good. The voices were pleasant and I wasn't bored with trivial material. I learned more about Pro tools and Reason through the tutorials than I did referencing the manual and diving in. Saved me a LOT of time. I have a long background in computer music and recording, which is why I decided to comment. EXCELLENT. The Reason tutorial convinced me to upgrade from the adapted version as well!

Your videos are very well done, clear and concise. In one day I was able to make the switch from a recording program I had used for four years. Even though I had purchased a book it was your videos that made the difference. I highly recommend them.

Although I have worked as a motion picture production sound mixer for over 32 years, I had never used my software and I decided that it was time to learn. Your training videos were perfect for somebody like me, because they are designed in easy to understand, bite sized segments. All I had to do was to toggle between your videos and my DAW program. That made my whole experience totally enjoyable and, most importantly, it worked!! I'm quite sure I'll be back again and again for periodic refresher courses. Thanks so much!

I find the training CD for Cubase very easy to follow along with, and really shortened the learning time it takes to get comfortable with a new piece of software. This way of learning is much more enjoyable than reading through pages of manuals.

I've recently purchased a training video from Groove 3 and I've found it to be an excellent training resource for myself. It has enabled me to get started with the more advanced options available in the program that I would have normally not had knowledge of. Being an educator, I can also appreciate the visual learning aspect of their training videos. The quality is excellent. Their customer service has been top notch! Any information that I needed or required was promptly answered with an appropriate response or solution.
Looking forward to utilizing more videos from them in the future and I'm encourage anyone thinking about it to get started!
Paul Gastaldin
The videos have been an enormous help to me. I'm a solo artist and have been busy recording my first cd, but I really didn't have much of a clue about how to edit audio. The videos helped me learn how to and I've gotten quite comfortable editing.
The videos are informative and get straight to the point. Seeing the actual screen and where to click on is helpful to me. That's a huge time saver!!! I've bought books and still had trouble figuring out how to get what I needed from them. With the videos I watch what I need to, and am up and making music in no time.

The money I spent on Groove 3 tutorials, I consider to be the "most wisely" spent of any of my over hundreds of music purchases. The speed of the web site, the quality of the presentation, the selection of lessons, have made my learning a very complex subject painless. For less than the price of a new pair of glasses, I kept myself from going blind and learned my DAW at the same time.

I just signed up for this service about a week ago and I'm really satisfied! I always struggled with the compressor and now, much thanks your video tutorial, I've been starting to use it in my songs with great success.
