Primarily I use it at home, where I've got Pro Tools 9 and a Mac Book Pro with 4 GB of RAM and a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. Audio Track plug-in on my home system and have also used it at a few professional studios that I've worked at, including the one I'm currently employed at. There's not much need for a manual, but if you're a beginner I'm sure it would be a help. Lastly, there are input and output levelers and metering for threshold, attenuation, and input and output levels. The compressor has the standard controls for threshold, ratio, attack, and release, while the gate also has the same parameters. The equalizer is made up of four bands with gain, frequency, and bandwidth control, as well as the ability to set the slope which comes in handy if you want to use a band as high or low pass. Learning how to use Audio Track isn't hard at all - if you understand the basics behind each of these processors, you should be able to use the plug-in right off the bat. It's compatible across the board in terms of plug-in formats as well as for both Mac and PC platforms. It comes in every major Waves bundle and also comes as an individual for both Native and TDM systems. Included in the plug-in is equalization, gating, and compression and can serve as a starting point for just about every track, hence the name. Audio Track plug-in is a three in one signal processor for your DAW.
