Handbook of Recording Engineering

By John M. Eargle

Book Overview

The 4th edition of John Eargle's classic hands-on reference for aspiring recording engineers has been completely recast for the digital revolution in recording and its allied arts and sciences. Digital recording and signal processing are covered in detail, as are actual studio miking and production techniques -- including the developing field of surround sound. The traditional topics of basic stereo, studio acoustics, analog tape recording, and the stereo LP are covered in greater detail than typical of recent books. In this update, numerous new topics were added and outdated material removed. Many technical descriptions are now presented in Sidebars, leaving the primary text for more general descriptions. The book is designed for students preparing for careers in broadcast, recording and film/TV audio, and doubles as a handbook for professionals already in the audio workplace.
