actual manual

I've been looking all over for something even resembling decent documentation on the magix movie edit pro 16 product. You can't tell me that all you have is a few diagrams attached to the program. If nothing else, at least a more complete tutorial series than one for each trick I want to learn.

Okay, my bad, just needed to click the contents tab. Found it!

Phantonwolf,

Regulars here would know I'd be about the last person to give Magix unqualified praise for their documentation, but I will jump a bit to their defense!

First, have you had a look at any of the hundreds of tutorials available on this Forum? Many are in German or french etc but you can often simply see what being done in a video clip. More tutorials exist on individual user's web sites like Alwyn's http://www.aaproductions.net/mep/tips/tutes.htm Google gives over a million hits for "magix video tutorial"!

Secondly, your request for help for every trick you want to learn is IMHO ipossible because MEP is such a great program. Yes, there are lots of presets available, but you are provided with a fantastic set of tools to explore new ideas and design entirely new effects. You can't expect Magix to provide a tutorial for what you've just invented. 

Rant & Rave off :-)
