Best $50cdn I've ever spent on a music book.

It explains in great detail the methods used by recording engineers to make a great sounding mix. It starts off with explanations of basic things, such as arrangement, compression, EQ, and panning. The real nice thing about this is that it doesn't just go over the "how", but it also goes into quite a bit of depth about the "why" behind things.

From there, it has a brief chapter on surround mixing, and then interviews with 20 of the best producers in the world.

Anyways, the book is a damn good value, and I'm certain it'll improve mixes.

Hey, that's the same book I use. My friend (Prophecy) is borrowing it right now though, since he's working with professional producers/sound-engineers. It seems to me like a great book. :D

I bought it from Tower Records. However, I checked Amazon.com and they are selling it also.
