Besides the free Windows Media Player tutorials  provided by Pinnacle and the free tutorials provided by Liquid Users , there are several companies that provide tutorials for sale.  Many samples of the tutorials for sale are listed on our  free tutorials provided by Liquid Users page.

With a DVD drive in your computer, you can switch between the tutorials and your "live" liquid session. A great way of learning.  The Carolina Area Plug   (Pinnacle Liquid User Group)  has provided reviews for many of these tutorials (although we would like to start doing our own reviews given the opportunity).  Here is a summary with links to the products and reviews. 

Note:  Be sure to check free tutorials provided by Liquid Users  for samples of the following author's tutorials - or their web sites.   

Basically, there are THREE MAIN DVD Tutorial trainers - Paul Mitton, Adita Video, and  Tony Teranna.

Mastering Liquid Edition (2/04) Myron Achtman and ADITA Video  $ 100 2 DVD's
(9.5 hrs)
**  very good - geared toward the beginner. A slow and study pace, perhaps detailed and over-repeated  too much for an intermediate user. Lots of good information.   The gems are there - just takes time for them to worm their way out. Examples of tutorials on-line.   Review

* Always check the sites as there may be "specials" on some of these products. And you can always ask the author for a better price - who knows, they may be willing to negotiate.

** While these products are very good for the beginner, intermediate or new user to Liquid Edition, if you are an advanced intermediate or higher end user, and you will find their value more geared towards useful and helpful tips as they do not deeply cover advanced topics relative to the liquid platform

Note:  The brief comment is based on personal observation of the products and is definitely this reviewer's quick summary opinion only.  Please read the full reviews and visit the web sites for more in-depth information.  If no comments are recorded it is because those products were not reviewed by this reviewer.
