Downloadable Versions of Digital Music Doctor's Courses Released June 2, 2005
The Digital Music Doctor has released four pro audio
interactive video courses in digital distribution format. These courses,
which cover Cakewalk Sonar 4, Steinberg Cubase SX 3, Sony Acid Pro 5, and
Sony Sound Forge 8, have previously been available as CD-ROMs. The digital
distribution versions of these courses have the same content and
audio-video quality as the CD-ROM versions.
Because of widespread availability of broadband Internet connections, it
has become feasible to offer these courses in a digital distribution
format. The courses are each packaged as two large files (100-200
megabytes) which require 10-20 minutes each to download with an Internet
connection speed of at least 1.5 megabits per second. Each course contains
approximately 2 hours of interactive video instruction as well as examples
of music and audio projects created using the software that is being
taught in the course. The video in these courses uses the compression
techniques of Macromedia Flash and the resulting file sizes are typically
about one-fifth that of other videos which use non-compressed formats.
