Patrick Pearce from the US has told us about a great story about the community coming together helping each other. Patrick explains “You may recall a while back Russ and Mike asked me to do a video for the community on how I did a major hardware upgrade to my Dell T5500 running Windows 10 and Pro Tools. A few months ago Ryan Shepherd, based in Scotland, saw that video and article and asked me to help him build an identical machine. So over the course of a month via Facebook messaging we were able to do just that. Two guys, thousands of miles apart, who have never met in person worked together, helped one to "Live The Dream" he has had since he was a kid, giving back to his community and it's young people. THIS is what Pro Tools Expert is all about and what its global reach can do. Thank you for all that you do for us in the Pro Tools Community!” John Jenkins would like to know what the 3rd plug-in is our recent Surrou
