Preface
 
    An Introduction to TDM Systems
 
We have presumed a level of knowledge on the general concepts of DAWs (Digital 
Audio Workstations) and basic computer operations.
We have also assumed that you have connected your TDM system to your Macintosh, 
and have installed (and tested) the Pro Tools system software. A correctly installed and 
operational ProTools system will ensure a reliable Logic Pro/DAE system.
 
Note:  
 
Please carefully read and follow the instructions of your Digidesign ProTools 
installation manual. 
The connection of your MIDI interface hardware and any external MIDI synthesizers or 
modules is also presumed to be working correctly. 
The use of Logic Pro’s functions is discussed in the accompanying Reference and 
Onscreen Help system—accessible from the Logic Pro Help menu.
