Seventh Edition
By
Alec Nisbett, Independent Producer, formerly Senior Producer in the Science and Features Dept at BBC TV. During his long career at the BBC he directed

Description
This classic work has inspired and informed a whole generation of artists and technicians working in all branches of the audio industry.
Now in its seventh edition, The Sound Studio has been thoroughly revised to encompass the rapidly expanding range of possibilities offered
by today's digital equipment. It now covers: the virtual studio; 5.1 surround sound; hard drive mixers and multichannel recorders; DVD
and CD-RW.
Alec Nisbett provides encyclopaedic coverage of everything from acoustics, microphones and loudspeakers, to editing, mixing
and sound effects, as well as a comprehensive glossary.
Through its six previous editions, The Sound Studio has been used for over 40
years as a standard work of reference on audio techniques. For a new generation, it links all the best techniques back to their roots:
the unchanging guiding principles that have long been observed over a wide range of related media and crafts.
The Sound Studio is intended
for anyone with a creative or technical interest in sound - for radio, television, film and music recording - but has particularly strong
coverage of audio in broadcasting, reflecting the author's prolific career.
Audience
New and existing audio engineers who work in broadcasting, radio, video, television and film production and music recording, at an intermediate
to professional level.
HE students on audio/broadcast courses and possibly the more advanced student at FE level.
