Thanks for the nice tutorial. I think that video tutorials are very effective, and I would like to see video tutorials for software on AUDIOTUTS. They are more accessible and you get to see all the steps involved.
@ Chad: Thanks for the suggestion! I’m sure we’ll have something on that topic in future :)
@ Umesh: Yeah, they’re great. We’ll see what we can do :)
