Speaking of jamin and compression, what are some good books that would teach a person what these tools are for? Preferably it would be more than a ProTools book and more of a general recording/mixing techniques book. I am brand new to the idea of recording so I am pretty lost when it comes to using any of this stuff for more than the very basics. I tried using some compression and noise gates in one of my recordings and just broke stuff. I don't understand things like "write,play,touch" in the menus so I can't realy use any of it effectively.
