How the Demo Session is Structured
The Pro Tools LE Demo Session actually contains two different mixes of the song
“Be There.” The first mix shows off the cool features and great sound quality of
Pro Tools LE. The second mix is mostly the same, but it has been mixed and set up to guide
you along with the tutorial information included in this guide. Go to “Mixing the Demo
Session Tutorial” on page 48 when you’re ready to start this tutorial.
