Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting Great Sounds: The Microphone Book imparts microphone tips and tricks of the pros to make them available to any sound engineer or home studio enthusiast. It explains aspects of all kinds of microphones, how they work, and how to use them in session recording. A well-known recording engineer with decades of industry experience, Tom Lubin presents technical information in a friendly, straightforward, and easy-to-grasp way, based on real-life experiences. This third edition includes a review of key practices at the end of chapters and a new section that provides an overview of microphone manufacturers you may not have heard of. There are now over one hundred and fifty companies making microphones for studio applications of one form or another, and most are small companies owned by people who are passionate about good sound. These companies feature high quality microphones, and many use classic designs with more affordable prices. How to choose and use microphones was once a skill passed down from senior sound engineers to their assistants as they would listen and learn by observation. Today, few large studios have assistant engineers, and an overwhelming number of studios are operated by their owners who are often self-taught and lack the benefit of the big-studio tutelage. This book is your guide to understanding the ins and outs of microphones and music studio production.

The book is designed to help guitarists understand what really goes on inside tube amps and where the tone comes from. This new updated and expanded edition adds further knowledge to the foundation, ensuring it continues as the most thorough and authoritative publication on the subject to be found anywhere.

Today, few large studios have assistant engineers, and an overwhelming number of studios are operated by their owners who are self-taught and do not have the benefit of the "big studio" tutelage. Getting Great Sounds: The Microphone Book imparts these microphone tips and tricks of the pros to make them available to any sound engineer or home studio enthusiast. It explains all aspects of all kinds of microphones, how they work, and how to use them in session recording. The conversational narrative style presents technical aspects in an easy-to-understand, humorous fashion, based on the real-life experiences of its author, a well-known recording engineer.Microphones are the first link in the amplification and processing of acoustic sound. Microphones capture the ever-changing instant of atmospheric pressure that passes by them. They are the windows through which we observe what someone has heard, what someone has played, what someone has said, and what someone has sung.Microphones are transducers. They change acoustic sound vibration into an oscillating electrical signal. They also uniquely transduce meaning. The most elusive vibrations-and the ones most sought after-are those that emerge from and are touched by the human soul. Central to capturing this elusive soul, this hidden spirit, are microphones. Somewhere within the sound they capture is the soul that differentiates a recording that moves the listener from one that does not. What makes it happen in one case but not in another?When someone uses a microphone, he/she attempts to enhance each sound's essence by selecting the microphone that brings out the desired "best" view of the sound, much as a painter might use different brushes and paints, pencils, or chalks to create textures. For example, the mic that is above the cymbals or on the hi-hat may not be the best choice for the toms, kick, or snare of a drum set. The best microphone for a given sound is the one that picks up the vibrations of an instrument as the player always imagined his performance should sound.The path to the perfect sound is a journey that includes the technology that follows the microphone's signal path and the acoustic environment that surrounds the sound source and precedes the microphone.This book is all about microphones and how to use them to get great sounds. The Microphone book includes an expansive appendix on audio signal processor and how to use them: Reverb, Delay, Equalizers, Compressors, Gates, Limiters, Expanders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dancing to the Drum Machine is a never-before-attempted history of what is perhaps the most controversial musical instrument ever invented: the drum machine. Here, author Dan LeRoy reveals the untold story of how their mechanical pulse became the new heartbeat of popular music. The pristine snap of the LinnDrum. The bottom-heavy beats of the Roland 808. The groundbreaking samples of the E-MUSP-1200. All these machines-and their weirder, wilder-sounding cousins-changed composition, recording, and performance habits forever. Their distinctive sounds and styles helped create new genres of music, like hip hop and EDM. But they altered every musical style, from mainstream pop to heavy metal to jazz. Dan LeRoy traces the drum machine from its low-tech beginnings in the Fifties and Sixties to its evolution in the Seventies and its ubiquity in the Eighties, when seemingly overnight, it infiltrated every genre of music. Drum machines put some drummers out of work, while keeping others on their toes. They anticipated virtually every musical trend of the last five decades: sequencing, looping, sampling, and all forms of digital music creation. But the personalities beneath those perfect beats make the story of drum machines a surprisingly human one-told here for the very first time.
