What is the best way to learn JRiver?

Alobar:
It has been a year since I chucked Itunes and went with JRiver 20 and now just upgraded to 21. What I have found is an application with amazing depth, but also one that I sense am barely scratching the surface as to what it could be doing for me. Programs like this remind me of navigating new cities where one first learns the main arteries then the boulevards and then streets etc. A road map is very helpful! When I self taught Cad I had the help of books and tutorials which got me a lot further than I ever could have. JRiver needs a book! It feels like the bell curve is too steep without something more than this forum where half the time I find myself lost reading about things, features etc that I don't understand.

So what is the best way to learn JRiver? I have made inroads over the past year, the music sounds awesome with it! Just want to use it more fully.

There is a link in my signature below called "Getting Started".  You may already be beyond that, but check to see if you can learn anything.

Then post what you're interested in.  MC is a big city.

just decide what you want MC to do.  Then search some old threads and try to figure it out, then post a thread where you're stuck.  If you study the answers you get I promise you'll learn, you already taught yourself CaD!

thanks to blgentry I learned Regex recently, all from one post.  I learned expression language from one MrC post years ago. (Ok still working on mastering both ha ha).  Mwillems taught me room correction through MC. (and many, many more helpful folk over the years).  The willingness of people to donate time and test ideas is really amazing here, and the best ones will get you started but leave the work to you which is a great learning experience

Patience. Don't ever be in a hurry if you are trying to perform something complex. It can easily take me an hour to set up a new view based on expressions, rules, and regex and I'm pretty familiar with all of those tools.

If JRiver had a book it would be the size of "War and Peace" with chapters being rewritten every couple of months.  ;D
