Summary: Final Cut Pro 6 Beyond the Basics
Comment: The product was great. I ordered this book for class, but then the professor told us that they switched books. So, I will keep it for future personal use but can't say I have actually used it yet. I have looked through it and feel that I could learn from it very easily, there are pictures to show where things are located in the window.

Summary: To get better
Comment: It's a great guide to get beyond the basics of this amazing program. It's quite easy to follow the lessons and learn to get more out of Final Cut Pro.
Although I'm a starter with final cut and it is written in English's I think it`s a good guide that will help you to get more out of the program.

Summary: Good book but borrows from others
Comment: I found this book very useful and have only one minor point to comment on that I disliked, and that was the recycling of chapters from other Peach Pit books. In particular the one on Advanced Compositing was almost straight from the book on Effects and Color Correction.
That aside I found some very useful tips and tricks and a little more explanation of the audio filters than other books; most of which seem to say - hey use Soundtrack Pro it has better effects - which is true, but I find there are times I need to just quickly sweeten the audio and dont' want to bounce in and out of Soundtrack to do this - now I can finally get my head around the compressor/limiter effect in FCP and use it successfully.
Oh, and there is a small error on page 257 applying filters chapter with labelling images for "auto select" - they are around the wrong way.
All up, I'm glad I bought the book as it helped fill in a few gaps, as well as clarify things and would recommend it for FCP users who have mastered the basics and seek to do more.
