Download or read book The Audio Expert written by Ethan Winer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Audio Expert is a comprehensive reference that covers all aspects of audio, with many practical, as well as theoretical, explanations. Providing in-depth descriptions of how audio really works, using common sense plain-English explanations and mechanical analogies with minimal math, the book is written for people who want to understand audio at the deepest, most technical level, without needing an engineering degree. It's presented in an easy-to-read, conversational tone, and includes more than 400 figures and photos augmenting the text. The Audio Expert takes the intermediate to advanced recording engineer or audiophile and makes you an expert. The book goes far beyond merely explaining how audio "works." It brings together the concepts of audio, aural perception, musical instrument physics, acoustics, and basic electronics, showing how they're intimately related. Describing in great detail many of the practices and techniques used by recording and mixing engineers, the topics include video production and computers. Rather than merely showing how to use audio devices such as equalizers and compressors, Ethan Winer explains how they work internally, and how they are spec'd and tested. Most explanations are platform-agnostic, applying equally to Windows and Mac operating systems, and to most software and hardware. TheAudioExpertbook.com, the companion website, has audio and video examples to better present complex topics such as vibration and resonance. There are also videos demonstrating editing techniques and audio processing, as well as interviews with skilled musicians demonstrating their instruments and playing techniques.

Download or read book The Audio Expert written by Ethan Winer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Audio Expert is a comprehensive reference book covering all aspects of audio, with both practical and theoretical explanations. It is written for people who want to understand audio at the deepest, most technical level, but without needing an engineering degree. The Audio Expert explains how audio really works in much more depth than usual, using common sense plain-English explanations and mechanical analogies, with minimal math. It uses an easy to read conversational tone, and includes more than 400 figures and photos to augment the printed text. However, this book goes beyond merely explaining how audio works. It brings together the concepts of audio, aural perception, musical instrument physics, acoustics, and basic electronics, showing how they’re intimately related. It also describes in great detail many practices and techniques used by recording and mixing engineers, including video production and computers. This book is meant for intermediate to advanced recording engineers and audiophiles who want to become experts. There’s plenty for beginners too. One unique feature is explaining how audio devices such as equalizers, compressors, and A/D converters work internally, and how they’re spec’d and tested, rather than merely describing how to use them. There’s plenty of myth-busting and consumerism too. The book doesn’t tell readers what brand power amplifier to buy, but it explains in great detail what defines a good amplifier so people can choose a first-rate model wisely without over-paying. Most explanations throughout the book are platform-agnostic, applying equally to Windows and Mac computers, and to most software and hardware. Many audio and video examples are included to enhance the written text. The new edition offers many updates and improvements throughout. New sections on coding an equalizer, comparing microphone preamps, testing results of loudspeaker isolation devices, new online video content on music theory, plus incorporated chapters on MIDI basics, computers, video production, plus new myth-busters, and much more!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook contains a wealth of information useful to the amateur voice actor (or even the seasoned professional, who wants to get a better understanding of how to manage their own audio.)While not intended as a resource for audio engineering professionals, this book aims to teach the aspiring voice talent how to:- Evaluate your acoustics and recording space- Select and use the proper microphone- Make the most of your equipment- Clean, trim, and prepare professional quality audio tracks- Use tools such as noise reduction filters, equalization and compression- Understand gain, SPL, and proper sound level- Optimize your studio setup with multiple mics- Record professional quality audio while traveling.- And much more!This brief but comprehensive textbook tutorial on audio engineering for the beginning voice actor (or voiceover) artist will provide you with a sufficient understanding of the tools, equipment, and technology you'll be using while doing voiceover.These days, thanks to the internet, and modern recording technology, voiceover is decentralized. We're no longer limited to recording booths at the studio. It gives us unprecedented freedom to work. It also introduces a problem.A voice actor must now be, to some degree, their own audio engineer; cleaning, trimming, and preparing good quality audio for their customer's use in a production or project.This guide is intended to equip you with the knowledge you need to do this on a basic professional level.This is NOT intended as an audio engineer's training manual. The practices found within are intended for use in a home/small studio, and in some cases will simply be what trial and error have proven to be a reliable, reproducible, and useful process to obtain a positive result.If you wish to delve further into actual audio engineering, this manual may still be useful, but the intended audience is starting, home, amateur and hobbyist voice actors, as well as professional voice actors who want a little more understanding and control over their process and results. Happy recording!
