by Major on May 10th, 2010 in PollA few readers have asked for it, so I’m going to see if there is any other interest out there? Should PTDudes have a forum? I know there is already Gearslutz and the DUC, but I think we could bring our own brand of fun to the forum world. It would be a place to discuss and share work-flow and techniques specific to Pro Tools. So, if you feel like it, vote in the poll below and we’ll see what happens! Thanks!
Update: Voting is now closed… stay tuned for the PTDudes Forum!
