Hot Tips for the Home Recording Studio (Hardcover)

~ (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Always wanted to have a home recording studio? Here's your book. Whether you intend to lay down some boss tracks or have more mundane goals, Linderman seems to cover every imaginable question, problem, or option you'll run into while setting up and using a home studio. He worthily mixes in background explanations with the advanced electronics and recording jargon, as, for instance, when he tells what exactly the difference between digital and analog recording is (many audiophiles probably should have read this explanation before committing so strenuously to digital--but that cultural-technological ship has sailed), and he keeps the techno-bombast to acceptable levels for a book concerned with fairly technical endeavors. Libraries may find his book useful to such corporate patrons as church and school groups and businesses considering in-house recording as well as to houserockin' individuals and aspiring rock stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book by a man with a mission, May 10, 2001

By	Jeffrey J. Sanders "psychedelic tunesmith" (www.mountainmirrors.com) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I got this book from my local library yesterday. Finished this morning. This is a GOOD thing from a person with my attention span! As a primer on recording, having now purchased 3 of the more popular books, I will say that this book is a necessity to a beginner. Concise and condensed. Written with heart and personality. This man loves music. It IS, however, only a primer and general base guide. What I need at this moment. Thanks, Hank!

3.0 out of 5 stars solid but basic, February 19, 2001

By A Customer

great book for a beginner. A lot of 'overview,' you may want to purchase this before you start buying equipment, etc. But if you have any experience w/ recording, you probably already know most of this stuff.
