Welcome to the AIR Users Blog, the world's number one resource for AIR Virtual Instruments and Plug-Ins from Digidesign to find out the latest tips, tricks and fixes for AIR Instruments and Plugins. You can find out more about AIR here

We get around 30,000 visitors a month checking out over 500 free patches for Structure, over 90 HD FREE videos and much more, so welcome.

The blog is a Non-profit organization support group which has a number of aims:

• To offer training to users of AIR and Pro Tools.
• To offer sounds and other resources
• To offer it all for FREE forever

The training is comprised of short HD Videos showing the user how to use a certain aspect of the software. To date there have been 100 videos created for this purpose.^[1].

The sounds are patches for use in Structure and to date these FREE instrument patches number over 500. The sounds are created by sampling real instruments and then modified to improve the user's experience.^[2].

More recently an initiative called the Patchbay has been started which is a public ftp where users can share their own sounds and effects for use in their Pro Tools sessions.

“Russ has done an amazing job of creating and galvanizing a user community for AIR plug-ins through enthusiasm, hard work and a great vision. He has incredible energy and is full of amazing ideas about how to build a tribe, and also how to sustain it. He has real talent and passion for music creation and I hope he can carry on his great work for many years to come.” July 28, 2009
