About the Book

Every session, every gig, every day, recording engineers strive to make the most of their audio signal processing devices. EQ, Compression, Delay, Distortion, Reverb and all those other FX are the well-worn tools of the audio trade. Recording and mixing, live and in the studio, engineers must thoroughly master these devices to stay competitive sonically. Its not enough to just know what each effect is supposed to do. Sound FX explains the basic and advanced signal processing techniques used in professional music production, describing real world techniques used by experienced engineers, and referencing popular music examples released internationally. The reader learns not just how to, but also what if, so they can better achieve what they already hear in the productions they admire and chase what they only hear in their imaginative minds ear. Sound FX will immediately help you make more thorough, more musical use of your sound FX.The accompanying website www.soundfx-companion.com includes audio exaples of FX featured in the book.Features: A chapter dedicated to each key effect: DistortionCompression & LimitingExpansion & GatingReverbEqualizationDelayPitch ShiftVolumeMore than 100 line drawings and illustrations.

Review :
"Sound FX is a entertaining, informative, and useful book that will find more time on the mixing console and effects rack than on a shelf in the library of practicing engineers, musicians and producers who want a better understanding of what the boxes in the rack or the plugins in their computer can do and why do it." - Neil A. Shaw - AES Journal Dec 07 "Sound FX is a entertaining, informative, and useful book that will find more time on the mixing console and effects rack than on a shelf in the library of practicing engineers, musicians and producers who want a better understanding of what the boxes in the rack or the plugins in their computer can do and why do it." - Neil A. Shaw - AES Journal Dec 07 "In all, this is a good read with probably the best, most lucid descriptions of audio effects seen in any book, coupled with countless illustrations, graphs and handy tips. Strongly recommended for anyone learning the craft of audio engineering whether in installation, live music or studio work; even the seasoned engineer may learn a new trick or two." Lighting & Sound, Jan 08
