I have the ones made before the 'pro' ones. They were quite good, but to be honest, I like the VASST ones better - but as said, I have not tried the new ones.
...the digital video & audio production book and dvd lesson exercise files are a good step by step process to get down the fundamentals for vegas...nothing overly fancy or overly complex but will give one a good foundation of how vegas operates...and always a good reference book to have around...plus on sale currently so not a bad price for something you'll always keep around...
...i would think the vasst dvd's would cover more and be explained more "real world"...imho...
