I thought I'd bring these up. This is a series of posts I made after getting some advanced Avid training a few years agowith a whole bunch of tips. Perhaps Backlap might want to add them to the tips and techniques thread.

Might be better to go with the tips part since they aren't "getting started" types of info but additional tips and techniques.

Great to see these resurface again Scott.
I printed them and put in a clear cellophane ring binder that has hung beside each Avid here ever since you first posted them.
(I have them all as a word doc sitting on this machines desktop if thats easier than you compiling them)
Very usefull. Thanks
