Editorial Reviews
Review
Reviews of previous editions:
'I rate the book very highly and use it regularly when teaching. It excels in explaining the technical side of sound recording and is a must-read for beginners and professionals alike.'
Ian Hu, Principal, School of Sound Recording, Manchester (UK)
'Not one day has passed when I havenÂ't turned to this book. It should be renamed "Sound Recording Bible".'
A reader, Amazon.co.uk
'As a self-taught sound engineer and technician, I found the book extremely well written, easy to understand, and not biased towards a single application (such as PA or music). It has certainly helped to fill some gaps in my knowledge, particularly of why things are done in a certain way, rather than just how to do them.'
A reader, Amazon.co.uk
'Definitely the best book on recording matters I have ever read... Something more than simply an introduction, it may be of great interest to everyone concerned with audio, sound and recording.'
A reader, Amazon.co.uk
'A comprehensive and contemporary work that is eminently readable but never lightweight.'
Pro Sound News
'I can recommend that students should stay up past bedtime reading it.'
