I want you to know that your book has helped me even with just the simple edits for piano!  I remembered your presentation and how you had different tracks fading things in and out and I was able to use that technique to make them sound great! – With appreciation, Alan…

Hello Mr. Saltzman!

It’s a huge honor to have the opportunity to speak with you.  I want to first give you a huge thank you for your time and say that your book has become a Music Editing Bible for me.  It’s helping me out tremendously with my chosen career path, music editing, and my thesis which is on music editing. – Devaughn Watts

The foundation of Steven’s teaching stems from his deep knowledge of music and Pro Tools and how they are used in conjunction with visual storytelling. Combined with his industry experience, Mr. Saltzman offers a veteran’s expertise in modern music editing techniques. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for instruction or guidance in music editing for film and television. – Felix Lau

Hi Steven,

Thank YOU for coming out to Cal Poly to speak.  Your presentation was absolutely fantastic!  I can’t wait to hear all of the good things the students are going to say about you!  – Jennifer M. Amaya (Assistant Professor – Music Industry Studies)


I had a wonderful time at the workshop getting to know you. Before I even attended the workshop you took the time to talk to me about your job and help me with tech problems. It is apparent that you are good at what you do, but more importantly, you were an influential and encouraging mentor to me. Sincerely grateful, – Candy
