4.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended. Extensive coverage of mixers in general, April 10, 2000
Although the book focuses on specific Mackie models, I would recommend the book for mixer users in general. I have a Tascam mixer and the manual is not very thorough. The book covers in detail different configurations, the specific functions and setup information. I would give it a 5 stars if I actually had one of the models that the book covers. I went back to my Tascam manual and a lot of the info finally made sense.

I've a newbie in the whole music scene and I've been looking for a book like this for a while. It definetly did its job in covering the basics very well. The book is very organized, starting with explanations of specific mixer functions in detail, how to use this functions and different applications and configurations. I wish Tascam made something like this....

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Beginner's Guide to Mixing I've Seen, January 24, 2004
By 
The Dealer (Lansdowne, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Mackie Mixer Book: Practical Info For All Compact Mixers (Paperback)
and not just for Mackie owners, either. I owned a Behringer board and I found the Behringer manual to be largely incomprehensible. After reading Rudy's book, my board finally made sense. I also went out and got a Mackie, because I could see how much superior it would be for my style of music. Trubitt writes simply, and the diagrams and visual aids are first rate. I would recommend this book as a beginner's guide to mixing no matter what board the person owns, because almost all of what Trubitt teaches is relevant to any mixing board. (By the way, the Mackie manuals are also excellent -- the best in the business).
