This session was about the processing and plugins. I learned Pro Tools has its own plugins, however, there are others that can be downloaded. While I learn more about plugins and use them, for the time being I will stick with the ones Pro Tools has. In the future, I will get more plugins. My mentor Tom demonstrated the plugins on the studio's Pro Tools. It had more plugins. Unfortunately the internet was down and effected the computer. The session was cut short and any more demonstration of plugins was put on hold. But I was still able to learn more about what they are and what they do. Since I now have Pro Tools, I can experiment with the plugins it has, and since I understand them more, it's not so intimidating.
