Modern Recording Techniques (Audio Engineering Society Presents)

Can be a tough read if you're not used to the jargon but this book contains all the standard practices so I definitely recommend

This seems to be great book. I’ve completed a cursory read through and I’m going to go back and read the entire book in greater detail.

Pretty descriptive on a few different aspects of production. Glad I bought it. Obviously no book says everything but I’d say it’s worth it to have if you produce or interested in producing music.

The content and coverage is awesome and up to date. I especially like David Miles Huber's enthusiasm and love of this craft. I love the fact that he values all different kinds of studios and gear.The techniques and theory sections are written in a way where it's fascinating and fun, not dry or skimpy like I've found in other booksIt's easy to see why this book is used as text in many educational settings, but it's just a fun read even for the home studio enthusiast who is trying to make demo recordings and improving the quality as I learn.

Modern Recording Techniques started as course material for me. As I continued learning through my classes, I felt it very easy to connect to the information in my book. So much so, that I have been sucked in as curiosity has me begging for answers to questions I didn’t know I had! 10/10, 5 stars, all the jelly beans, I cannot recommend this book enough for those looking to sate the thirst for audio production knowledge!

Very clear, down-to-earth account of audio recording essentials. Good direct writing style supported by excellent visuals. An ideal textbook and handbook for novice and professional alike.

This is the industry standard text for learning the complicated craft of audio engineering. I use it for two of the courses I teach in Recording Arts Department of Citrus College in Glendora, CA. It's been an invaluable resource for me since its early editions when Robert Runstein first published it, and David Miles Huber has carried the tradition admirably. Broken down into the logical areas of recording, each section covers its topic thoroughly, and as a bonus, it's easy for anyone to read. Finally, each edition manages to stay completely up-to-date with the latest developments in audio technology, no mean feat in today's fast-moving world. I have one minor complaint: there is a typo in Figure 6.9b on page 203 - the fourth box from the left is labeled "A/D conversion" when it should be "D/A conversion."

It’s a great books so far. What I like is the technical content and the practical exercises you can do in your DAW in conjunction with the downloadable file samples. The writing style is more relaxed and not dry and purely technical, which I really like. I’m in chapter 3. I‘ll add more later.

This is on our reading list for performance and production at university.

Book has lot of good helpful material. Good for college/uni course. Covers a lot of topics. Good for informamation and reference use

Fantastic book! What more can I say? :)

This book is great both for beginner and experienced engineers. It has an optimal amount of technical and practical details.

If you are really serious about deep into sound and music production, this is your book.
