    Default Pangolin Live Pro Training Available to order

    Fellow laser heads,

    The Pangolin Live Pro Training DVD is now available.

    This DVD Contains over 100 lessons showing you how to use all the functions of Live Pro. Each Lesson takes the form of a step by step animated demonstration in the actual software (See Screenshot), with examples that you can try out. Each example is shown in the LIve Pro Enhanced Reality Preview, so you can see what the laser will output.

    The training has its own menu system and runs in a web browser. You can do the whole thing end to end, or pick a section to remind yourself quickly how to perform a particular task.
    I will put an example of one section of the finished product on my website very soon and pass the link out for those who want to try before they buy.

    There is a full content listing and screenshots further down this post. This has been produced using a QM2000, but 95% of the content is exactly the same on the Flashback 3 hardware.

    Ok, Pricing..... I have decided that this will sell at £75 per copy plus shipping, but as a special introductory offer to PL members of £60 plus shipping per copy until August 31st 2009.
    Shipping will change per country and will be shipped Royal Mail to keep costs low, unless you ask for another method. The price I quote for shipping will be the price I am given, I will NOT stick profit on postage costs.

    If you are interested, PM me to arrange payment which will be via PayPal.

    Cheers
    Mark

    Default What format?

    Hi,

    Just wanted to be clear as I am getting a lot of questions about the TV format of this training.

    It is a software simulation and runs on a PC in its own player that runs in a web browser. So long as you have a PC with a browser, it will run...

    Cheers

    My DVD was waiting on me when I got home yesterday, and I started previewing some of it this morning -

    I have to say, this is VERY well made, and I look forward to spending some quality time with it and my LivePro gear!

    Thanks for making this available to us, Mark - and for getting mine delivered to me so quickly stateside!!

    Randy

    PS -

    You realize you'll now be expected to produce similar offerings for future Pangolin products, right?

    Just a quick note to say i've now got my DVD and have now had a chance to look at it.

    WOW!!!, I wouldn't like to hazard a guess at how many hours this has taken to put together. It's extremely professional and the menus work like a dream. As for helping me to learn LivePRO... Well, all I can say is this is a brilliant way to shortcut the learning curve that's required with such a complex program as LivePRO.

    Thanks Mark, this has saved me hours of trying to work out how things work .
