if you know nothing about cubase, basic recording/mixing techniques and very little about computers, this book might be for you, otherwise i would recommend looking elsewhere. this book has very little useful information about the actual usage of cubase.

it is funny: this book is good either for beginners, or practically oriented adventurers for when they realize somethings are not working the way they want. it may help you optimize vst so that you may "fine tune" it. or if you are a beginner learn a lot by going thru, as it gives a good discussion of several technical topics. definitely not for figuring out how to make music with vst.

A fast & informative guide to hardware requirements and specs. Very good write up on eq techniques and plug-ins. Also a must have cd-rom w/lots of nice plug-ins, mixer maps, etc.

I was a bit dissappointed with this book. Just that basics are covered and too much is left for the user to figure out later on. If I didn't know better, I would think that this is just a glorified promotional tool for the product. Also, this book is effectively out of print and I could not link to the company's website for any updates. I didn't bother to open the CDROM yet and will probably not keep this book for long since it really did nothing for me.

HOWEVER: if you are a newbie to Cubase and desktop digital studio tech, this may be the book for you. It does a good job of simplifying and giving a user a well-rounded, basic overview of desktop studio technology and what it can do for you.

I give it a "medium" rating.
