Audio productions are made or broken by the quality of the
recording engineer's ears. The ability to properly discern sounds,
identify subtle problems, and act accordingly to apply the necessary
fix makes all the difference in the quality of the final tracks and
master. The good news is that these crucial skills can be learned.
The ability to instantly identify frequencies, hear hidden distortions,
and instinctively reconcile conflicts in the EQ of instruments, audio
elements, vocals and more are traits of those who have mastered the art
of audio production. The best engineers have trained their ears to
immediately recognize audio problems that the consumer and those new
to recording arts would likely not hear, but that, if left unresolved,
would result in an amateurish final product. For more than two decades,
students of F. Alton Everest's Critical Listening and Auditory Perception
courses have rapidly developed these skills by using the intense lessons
found in this book and on the CD. Unfortunately the books and CDs
included with the course were usually too expensive for aspiring engineers
to purchase and were often available only in colleges, universities, or
school libraries. Now for the first time these indispensable training
sessions are available with this release of Critical Listening Skills
for Audio Professionals. Through hundreds of illustrations and an
accompanying disc containing high-resolution MP3 files with nearly five
hours of narration of the entire course, you can acquire the audio
discernment skills of a seasoned recording engineer by studying this
course at your own pace, in your own home.
