He guided me with clarity and knowledge in and around pro tools, including set up with computer interface and settings. We covered all the functions necessary to set up a recording with multiple tracks.

My 10yr old son has been taking lesson with Dave for a few months now and not only does he love the lessons, but I am really impressed with how much music theory and music production Dave works in with piano. It just makes sense, the way he teaches, and it keeps my son excited to practice and learn more. Thank you, Dave!

My Pro Tools system setup was a mess, but Dave was able to patiently diagnose the problems and get Pro Tools running properly on my PC. Then, he helped me build a template that I'll be able to use again and again.
- Dan F. from Apollo Beach, FL
Learning many things about Pro Tools that I didn't know. Looking forward to more time with Dave. What else can I say. Do you want me to tell a story? How about the history of my life. Is that 160 characters?
- Loren J. from San Francisco, CA
Dave knows how to use protools and has his pedagogics clearly sort out, his teaching is suitable for a variety of pop/piano/melodic/ music and he convey the basics of music production in a thoughtful way.
- Minghim T. from Jersey City, NJ
Dave took me from 0 to 60 in a two hour session...Very knowledgeable and easy to follow...It's beneficial if you have some understanding of the software...Dave is a whiz at shortcuts and organizing files...I would highly recommend Dave if you need help getting started...
- Jimmy Wayne M. from Wauconda, IL
He is knowledgeable and patient. We had online lessons via I-Phone, Team Viewer and Zoom. He gave me a free introductory lesson where we tested our communication methods and discussed the kinds of things I wanted to learn. It was great to be able to show him my files and get commentary. Throughout the lessons he shared his work methodology and answered my questions while checking out the files where the questions and problems were happening. I?m very happy with the outcome of the tutoring sessions and was able to complete a project I was working on when we started.
- Linda T. from Chicago, IL
Dave has been very patient with my general lack of understanding the basics and terms of Pro Tools software, and has made me feel secure from the ground up, and definitely clearer about the program as I move forward.
- Stan M. from Siler City, NC
Dave is not only easygoing and patient, but he has an excellent fund of knowledge which he extends in an understandable progressive format. He will tailor your work to your specific needs. Very highly recommended
- Michael M. from Broomfield, CO
Dave is a great teacher and has a great deal of experience and knowledge of pro tools. I would recommend him to anyone looking to expand their skills and knowledge of pro tools and music production.
- Adam M. from Goleta, CA
Not only did Dave provide me with excellent customer service, he had an open-and-honest style of teaching. I learned the power of master plugins, Ozone 9 and Tonal Balance Control in our first lesson and I look forward to more sessions with Dave.

The ProTools Fast Start went really well... - Good experience with Dave and he has a unique ability to cut through to the most relevant needs. I will be continuing with the training sessions.
- Tony C. from Beaverton, OR
Very knowledgable about electronic music production. I'm excited to learn more about Pro Tools and how to write and compose my own music! Dave is patient, friendly, and has years of experience teaching.
- Carolyn E. from Denver, CO
Dave taught me a lot about putting up the equalizers and the reverb for each channel. Then he taught me about the actual use of the eq and reverb, to get each instrument and voice sounding the way I wanted. He is a patient and methodical teacher, pausing and answering questions as I needed. He also taught me a number of useful "tricks" and tips that I hadn't expected. I would gladly recommend David to anyone.
