Getting the best audio recording results often requires as much common sense and intuitiveness in technique as it does a deep understanding of the technical elements involved. In The Art of Digital Audio Recording, expert author Steve Savage synthesizes years of professional recording experience - including 7 Grammy-nominated records - and his teaching experience as instructor in recording techniques to equip professional readers with both the essential technical as well as practical knowledge they need to succeed.Sound studiosSoundRecording and reproducingDigital techniquesSound studios.SoundRecording and reproducingDigital techniques.621.3893Savage Steve1851773Johnson Robert892974Fergusson Iain1851774MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974650303321The art of digital audio recording4446077UNINA
