Description
Owners of Audio Production and Critical Listening, please contact us for the Mac version: technical.support@elsevier.com.
Making
decisions about how and when to apply sound processing effects and recording techniques can make or break your song mix. The decisions
you make come down to your listening skills - what you hear and how you perceive it. Your ability to properly discern sound, identify
a problem, and act accordingly - especially when the decision often needs to be made quickly - makes all the difference to the success
of the final track.
Audio Production and Critical Listening develops your critical and expert listening skills, enabling
you to listen to audio like an award-winning engineer. The interactive "ear training" software practice modules give you experience identifying
various types of signal processes and manipulation - EQ, dynamics, reverb, distortion, delay, etc. The software sits alongside the clear
and detailed explanations in the book, offering a complete learning package that will help you train your ears to listen and really "hear"
your recordings.
Audience:
Undergraduate students in sound recording, music production, music technology, audio engineering.Aspiring recording engineers,
live sound engineers, equipment designers, acoustical consultants
