5 out of 5 stars 'THE' book on mixing technics   October 31, 2008
This is THE book to a getting-pro mixer and sound engineer. Very good tips, up to date comentaries and references, lots of state-of-art producers and engineers comments and references.... Well, a must-have, and i'm not getting any money to say that. I leave in Brasil, a blight on good comments and solid info about music production and recording... again, this book is the book for pro mixers and sound engineers trying to sound (way) a little better....

A must have.

My small studio thanks it!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent for the audiophile   July 23, 2008
As an audiophile I truly enjoyed the book. It gave me clear and usable insight into why some of my recordings sound the way they do. It also allowed me to very quickly criticize some of my not so professionally mixed music. This includes classic and pro brands like "Deutsche gramophone and London" that you would expect to be top notch. They are not always perfect. For the professional it gives the philosophy of the professional mixers without much detail.


5 out of 5 stars Great Book   July 9, 2008
I began to learn with the first few pages of this book. This book is good, it's set up like a round table with professional mix masters.
Little did I know how much I had to learn.I recommened this book.



4 out of 5 stars Something good to start with   June 14, 2008
Now this book had me going when I was new in recording and mixing. Frustration comes when you do not know anything in the field of mixing. But with this, I had something to refer to. I recommend this one for other beginners like me.


5 out of 5 stars Amazing!!   June 8, 2008
I was constantly finding myself disappointed with the finished products to my band's music because comparing it to what you hear on the radio it was awful in comparison. After studying this book my mixes sound way more professional and i've never been so proud of my work until now. Highly recommended!!
