Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to audio in our videos, most of us just plug in a microphone and hit the record button. There is more to digital audio than squiggly lines on the timeline. A better understanding of the process will help you record and edit better sound with each project. It's time to dig in and crack the digital audio code. This book is a plain English exploration of the digital audio signal path, its structure, and its features. By examining and deconstructing digital audio's standard terms, processes, and functions, the author brings each concept to light with clarity and simplification for new and experienced engineers alike. In the booklet, the digital audio environment has been reduced down to three key areas: Input, Processing, and Output. Each is explored thoroughly and complemented with diagrams, allowing comprehension of even the most complex digital principles with minimal technical language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making great audio recordings requires striking the right balance between technical know-how and practical understanding of recording sessions. Even in the digital age, some of the most important aspects of creating and recording music are non-technical and, as a result, are often overlooked by traditional recording manuals. The Art of Digital Audio Recording teaches readers what they really need to know in order to make great sound recordings with computers - both the practical and the technical information, including: DT What to look and listen for in a recording environment DT Straightforward advice on recording almost any instrument DT Essentials of digital audio workstations DT Essentials of recording gear: microphones, mixers, and speakers DT Fundamentals of understanding and applying EQ, compression, delay, and reverb DT Secrets to running creative recording sessions DT Practical application of digital editing, mixing, and masteringA special section identifies solutions to the most common challenges in the recording studio, and the book also features an addendum with essential tips and reference information including: DT How to walk into a commercial studio and be the engineer DT Researching and buying gear: Internet vs. brick and mortar DT Digital formats: A handy referenceAs a whole, The Art of Digital Audio Recording is an essential resource that gives recordists the tools they need to let technical understanding serve greater musical goals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alan Kefauver's "Audio Recording Handbook" is a comprehensive guide which covers every aspect of the recording process. Following a discussion of sound, Kefauver explores loudspeakers and microphones and also current audio signal processing devices. Hecovers at length issues of reverberation, equalizers, compressors, noise reduction, and other processes for recording and editing sound. "The Audio Recording Handbook" includes sections devoted to analog and digital audio systems, digital editing workstations, tape recorder alignment, and synchronization systems. In addition, Kefauver discusses the features of both analog and digital recording consoles, as well as various console automation systems. Throughout the book, applications to surround sound formats are addressed. On of the most useful parts of The Audio Recording Handbook is the discussion of the recording, mixdown, and editing sessions, which brings together everything covered in the text clearly and effectively.

Book excerpt: In this thorough introduction to the technology behind audio workstations, Dr Francis Rumsey explains not only how digital audio works but also how to make best use of its capabilities. A combined revision of his two successful titles, MIDI Systems and Control and The Audio Workstation Handbook, this new book covers recent developments such as surround sound formats, direct stream digital, new audio project formats, new interfaces and alternatives to MIDI. Desktop Audio Technology begins by setting out principles of digital audio and how these are applied in recording, replay and editing within workstations. MIDI and synthetic audio control is then covered, looking at the means by which artificial sounds can be controlled and manipulated. This is followed by explanations of hardware, including storage devices, buses, computer interfaces and audio processing options. Dr Rumsey then focuses on transferring audio between systems, including coverage of audio interfaces, networking and file formats. The next section examines audio software, providing working examples of different commercial packages that exemplify some of the concepts previously described. The final chapter considers operational issues such as recent spatial reproduction formats, consumer format mastering and quality control issues, as well as troubleshooting and systems issues. If you are a student, lecturer or practitioner in the field of audio and are looking for an authoritative technical guide to the underlying principles of digital audio and MIDI, this book is for you. Dr Francis Rumsey is a Reader in Sound Recording at the University of Surrey (UK) and a Visiting Professor at the School of Music in Piteå (Sweden). He is a Fellow of the Audio Engineering Society and a regular contributor to the AES Journal. Dr Rumsey is also author of Spatial Audio and co-author of Sound and Recording (with Tim McCormick) and The Digital Interface Handbook (with John Watkinson), all published by Focal Press.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Audio Theory: A Practical Guide bridges the fundamental concepts and equations of digital audio with their real-world implementation in an accessible introduction, with dozens of programming examples and projects. Starting with digital audio conversion, then segueing into filtering, and finally real-time spectral processing, Digital Audio Theory introduces the uninitiated reader to signal processing principles and techniques used in audio effects and virtual instruments that are found in digital audio workstations. Every chapter includes programming snippets for the reader to hear, explore, and experiment with digital audio concepts. Practical projects challenge the reader, providing hands-on experience in designing real-time audio effects, building FIR and IIR filters, applying noise reduction and feedback control, measuring impulse responses, software synthesis, and much more. Music technologists, recording engineers, and students of these fields will welcome Bennett’s approach, which targets readers with a background in music, sound, and recording. This guide is suitable for all levels of knowledge in mathematics, signals and systems, and linear circuits. Code for the programming examples and accompanying videos made by the author can be found on the companion website, DigitalAudioTheory.com.
