Research on creating “audible enclaves” that enable private sound transmissions in public spaces — that is, “localized pockets of sound that are isolated from their surroundings” theconversation.com/researchers-...
theconversation.com
Researchers created sound that can bend itself through space, reaching only your ear in a crowd
By combining ultrasound with a concept called nonlinear acoustics, you can create sound that stays silent until it reaches a specific location.

You’ll walk away with the ability to strip away all of the elements in the app you don’t need, and gain a number of handy workflows specific to podcast work. The advent of Descript has also made the transition to Pro Tools even more daunting for some, and it shouldn’t be. Be there or be a rhombus!

This class is for anyone who is new to Pro Tools or anyone who has struggled with it. There are so many little ways the app can get new users hung up and discouraged.
