Sound reinforcement is the use of audio amplification systems. This book is the first and only book of its kind to cover all aspects of designing and using such systems for public address and musical performance. The book features information on both the audio theory involved and the practical applications of that theory, explaining everything from microphones to loudspeakers. This revised edition features almost 40 new pages and is even easier to follow with the addition of an index and a simplified page and chapter numbering system. New topics covered include: MIDI, Synchronization, and an Appendix on Logarithms. 416 Pages.
Great reference manual
| Customer Rating: | | This manual is a wonderful reference. it contains all of the important aspects of sound engineering. The math and implementaiton guidelines are "spot on". |
Great Mix of Theory & Practical Advice
| Customer Rating: | | Despite its vintage, this book remains an excellent introduction to sound reinforcement, with a great mix of theory and practical advice. I wasn't a complete beginner when I bought it, but I still learned plenty. Years later, I still use it as a sourcebook when solving problems or shopping for new equipment. |
The Industry Standard (Our not so little Black Book)
| Customer Rating: | The Good - This book is one of the industry standards for sound reinforcement and Loudspeakers. It is very complete and covers everything from the fundamentals to advanced topics. It can be used to introduce you to the topic and as a reference.
The Bad - Reads like a Textbook or an Owners Manual, and as it covers everything some parts will seam simple and others extremely hard to understand.
Summary - It is all there. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. I work in the speaker industry and almost everyone has a copy. If you want to fully understand Audio Reinforcement and Loudspeakers this is a great book. If you want a light read for casual understanding try a For Dummies book. |
The definitive resource, not dated - more like learning painting from an old master
| Customer Rating: | | This was, is, and will be the definitive live sound guide. Take it from MANY professionals. I studied music and this was what was recommended for live sound reinforcement and funny enough when I checked recently - it still is. So never mind the "these digital times" review - this is indeed like learning an art from a master with timeless and always-pertinent concepts useful to those who know this and use this powerful material. The concepts are solid and still pertinent. If you want to learn how to use modern digital equipment specifically and ignore that the concepts in this book can be applied since the acoustics and challenges of live sound remain relatively unchanged, read the manuals that came with the digital equipment. Then read this book to REALLY learn how to do more with whatever you have. |
do not buy this book, it is old and provides no recent technological info
| Customer Rating:  | the book is old, second printing 20 years ago and that is a lifetime in these digital technological days.
it presents info that will always be valid but it does not integrate it with newer technologies.
do not waste your money. |
