I offer the above because I think the video might reach more people with some minor tweaks.Īgain, JMO offered because you seem to appreciate feedback intended to be helpful. I am sure this video (well conceived and prepared, for sure) will be good for many listening styles and various levels of beginners.

Possible suggestion: Instead of having parenthetical asides that don't add how-to knowledge of the product (e.g., the part about CW used to cost money, and the part about third-party plug-ins and then the same comment about Cakewalk plug-in), a beginner might be better served by a short parenthetical expression for 'plug-Ins' - e.g., '(additional tools you can add)'-but not as an overly rushed, choppy statement. 'Plug-Ins' seems to me as a triffle specialized. Some explanations presume some knowledge that beginners might not have.

Some explanations are clearly for beginners (which is what you intend). *Ĭontent level: I have seen this in other videos-a discrepancy between the level of explanations. Once the listener/viewer has gotten accustomed to the overall (words and sentences) and internal vocal pacing (slbls),* you can pick it up a bit. Possible suggestion: Start off slower and with less rapid phrasing. For me, its not just the overall vocal rate, but the rate of rapidly uttered phrases. My patience level means that if listening to/watching a video requires too much mental energy to decipher the information, I move on to something else. Speaking rate: My listening style means that I have to either constantly stop or constantly stop and rewind this video. You seem to be open to constructive feedback, so let me (1) echo earlier feedback about speaking rate and (2) add a few minor comments. I know making videos like this are time consuming, so kudos for undertaking and doing the project.
