New material includes: extensive coverage of digital recording technology and techniques, including computer DAWS and optimizing them for best performance • extra coverage of the basics, such as speed of sound, inverse square law, sound-wave interference, reflection and diffusion • comprehensive look at all types of microphones, including live-vocal, digital and headworn mics • a detailed instrument frequency range chart. Also includes a CD (Mac and PC compatible) that will enable you to actually hear the effects and techniques described in the book.
