in a while, someone writes a technical book which becomes the definitive work or industry bible. John Watkinson has done that with The
Art of Digital Audio'.
New Scientist

here is an authoritative text book. As a reference work, this book is superb. In short, an essential reference work for any modern recording
facility. Sound Engineer & Producer
'Since digital audio has become a commercial reality there has been a need for a comprehensive
textbook on the subject; a need fulfilled by John Watkinson. ... The Art of Digital Audio is highly informative but approachable and
refreshing at the same time, hence widening its appeal outside the university campus to DIY-ers and enthusiasts alike. Highly recommended.
Paul Miller, Hi-Fi News
