We live in an age where technological advances in the music
industry are so commonplace that they seem to happen every day.
Many of these advances have made it possible for almost anyone
to develop a system capable of producing hit-quality audio.
The only bad news is that by opening the doors for everyone,
new audio technology has also made a lot more competition.
If you're going to have an edge in an increasingly competitive
industry, such as music and audio, mixing and mastering skills
are essential.
Nothing crushes creative potential more effectively than a shabby
attempt at an amateurish mixdown. The S.M.A.R.T Guide to Mixing
and Mastering Audio Recordings provides proven, time-tested tools
to create mixes that compete well in the musical marketplace and
compare favorably with the recordings you hear on your favorite
CDs and DVDs.
Professional-level techniques are explained thoroughly with
numerous screenshots in a hands-on, full-color format.
Topics covered include setting up for mixdown, mixing all of the
rhythm section instruments, addressing surround considerations,
understanding the proper use of effects and stereo imaging, and
learning mastering techniques that will give your productions
the impact and power they deserve. The companion DVD includes
audio examples of the concepts discussed in the text,
plus step-by-step instructional video examples that show you how
to optimize your recordings in crucial situations.
