ABSTRACT

How to achieve release-quality recordings on a budget within a typical small-studio environment, by applying power-user techniques from the world's most successful producers. In my work for Sound On Sound magazine and Cambridge-MT I notice the same recording mistakes cropping up time and again, and while it's sometimes possible to salvage a usable mix from poor recordings, that way of working is incredibly long-winded and laborious. This book is about helping you make better use of your time and energy, by leading you step-by-step through a series of in-depth practical exercises that demonstrate how to record sensibly in the first place.
