Apr 15, John rated it really liked it. Such a genius idea: interview a group of professionals and then edit together a book of their responses grouped by subject. Then devote an entire chapter to each person and you have a bit of essential reading for anyone with their eyes on the industry.

Nov 24, Marlon rated it really liked it Shelves: music. Thanks to this book, my indie rock band, an isotope , was able to independently and successfully produce a six track EP a few months ago. If you know nothing to very little about mixing sound in a recording studio environment, then this is the book for you. It explains things specifically like, how the mics should be set up on the amps, to figuring out what frequencies to boost in order to add more "punch" to the kick drum, to tweaking the reverb to make a single guitar sound fuller.

It's amazing--you can read about how a famous engineer mixed the strings on a whitney houston album as in, how he panned the strings, the amount of delay added to make it stereo, the model of reverb tank used, the specific compressor added to the mix buss , and then you can listen to the song and actually hear what he's talking about!!!

It's a wonderful first i know it's not fiction, but this book is thoroughly useful, and the interviews with various mixing technicians couldn't be more helpful.

It's a wonderful first step for anybody interested in this stuff. Jun 01, Morgan Dusatko rated it it was amazing. This is the best book I've ever read. Perhaps if this was the first book I read on mixing I would have given it 5 stars, but I actually expected more from it. Bobby definitely provides deep insights into mixing after picking the brains of some of the most successful engineers, but if you're looking for a solid framework on which to build you mixing skills, there are other books to read.

This one is definitely more about the heart and the feels than the cerebral aspects of approaching a mix. And it's great that it provides that persp Perhaps if this was the first book I read on mixing I would have given it 5 stars, but I actually expected more from it.

And it's great that it provides that perspective! In particular, the way the author described Groove is not something I have encountered elsewhere and it's going to be something I implement in my own music.

Jul 25, Jeff Ammons rated it really liked it. Good intro to mixing concepts and ideas to play with. Apr 22, james l. Really helpful and informative. Jun 01, Santosh Pathak rated it it was amazing. Hello, Im santosh from Nepal, in my country there is no international payment system. I want to read this book but i can not buy in this situation! Please help me. Mar 29, Kes rated it it was amazing. Learned a lot! All sorts of different approaches to the mixing art!

Definitely useful for any amateur-producer at home! May 02, Sparkie Allison rated it it was amazing. Great book, lots of useable info. Love the interviews in the second half of the book.

Jan 06, Karin rated it it was amazing Shelves: non-fiction-read. Very useful and informative. Probably gonna use this as a handbook for practice. Jan 25, Dacord rated it really liked it. I great overview about mixing!

Nov 05, Mr. Full of great mix strategies and ideas. The interviews at the end are a little tedious because Owsinski asks the same questions in each. Really great practical guide to the more complex parts of creating a radio ready final mix. Dec 08, Mikael Lind rated it liked it Shelves: music , music-production. Some really good tips here, but often, I miss a more general approach.

The book sometimes goes into extreme details to help the reader get the best sound out of the snare drum, but then when it comes to the piano, it tells you nothing more than that with this and this EQ, you can get a similar sound as Elton John. I was hoping for a bit more than that!
