Create ideas! Comb Filtering and Acoustics

Lots of creative ideas to getting better sound quality. Covers what comb filtering is and other sound reflection methods as well as a lot more information. Thank you.

Audiobook

A very well-made audiobook. Great for all music producers who are new or experience in the field. I have been producing music for over 12 years and have learnt a great amount from this book.

Great Audiobook!

Great audiobook. Taught me a lot about to music producing and how to put together a music studio. Helped me and my son build together our home studio. We now have a midi keyboard and a microphone set up

Couldn't ask for more

Great insights into putting together a studio. Would recommend to most producers and artists alike. Covers so much in a short period of time. Hard to absorb all the information as there is so much - you will need to re listen to it, probably best to take notes too! Would recommend.

Couldn't ask for a better book

Couldn’t ask for a better audiobook when it comes to setting up a recording environment. Is quite a short audiobook but has many good points and ideas to help you set up a music studio. Listened to this twice and enjoyed it just as much the second time!

Many tips and secrets!

Taught me how to put together a studio and how to choose the right equipment and software. I'm now ready to start recording. Definitely going to come back to this guide numerous of times for references when building my studio and recording.

A treat to listen to

I have learn so much because of this audiblebook. It has taught me what digital audio workstations there are on the market and which one i should used, how to position equipment in my studio and the do's and don'ts of buying microphones. I'd recommend this book.

Excellent Audio

Great sounding vocals. Enjoyed listening to this audiobook. Has given me enough information to start building my studio and covered the basics with how to record and mix audio with good tips!

Good information. Doesn't go to much depth.

What was covered was quality information, it only went over pretty much the basic information of studio starting. You could get all of this information on Youtube. I would recommend to someone who is just starting and listening on a car ride. Otherwise save your money and go to YouTube.

Good book idea, bad book.

Scattered content with a dull, robotic narrative. Though the info is valid, there are no “secrets” in this book. You’ll find more insightful and up-to-date info doing a simple Google search on home recording studios.

Sound Quality

Lots of creative ideas to getting better sound quality. Covers what comb filtering is and other sound reflection methods as well as a lot more information. Thank you.

Radio - Great Book

Bought this for my daughter who’s into making her own radio station. She said it has helped her lots and would recommend it. Although it’s more focused for building a music studio some of the information about acoustics and sound effects can be used for all areas of sound (radio station, youtube ect) Was really good.

Egg Cups! Amazing!

Love how this audiobook covers budget methods to setting up a music studio as well. Like the egg cup methods. Really smart idea when you’re love on cash.

Music Studio

The only audiobook you will need for setting up a music studio. Covers all the basics including digital work stations, how to set up and position your equipment and important effects such as EQ and compression.

Digital Audio Workstations

Covered lots of different daws and software that you should use. Thank you, I didn’t know about free sonar cakewalk. That saved me some money for my podcasting set up!

Thanks to this book I set up my own bedroom studio

Thanks to this book I set up my own bedroom studio with a midi keyboard, microphone, audio interface and studio monitors. Very grateful 
