heinz57 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hi all, I appologise if this has been discussed before, but anyway, here goes. Can anyone recomend me any good books about sound?Is there any that also talk about the equipment like speakers, desks etc? Cheers, Heinz :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gaffa Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Only one I can think about is Concert Sound, Try using Amazon to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkPAman Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Have a look here & do a seach for other treads too. :P A concurrent post has been automatically merged from this point on. I'll add that this:The Sound Reinforcement Handbook - Gary Davis & Ralph Joneshttp://images-eu.amazon.com/images/P/0881889008.01.MZZZZZZZ.gif seems to come top of most people's lists. My copy is within arm's reach right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Lewis Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Have a look at your nearest library under 621.3893 I suspect that you will find a veritable cornucopia of sound related books. Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jivemaster Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Definitely the Yamaha book as first choice. http://www.terralec.co.uk/books_and_manuals/115_0c.html Will offer you something to read. though some mat be rather superficial in content. I like the Acoustics book by Gilford for an appreciation of studio acoustics. It's 40 years old but Air sound and concrete are still the same! And the methods are affordable! For that you will have to search Abebooks.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tolley1466 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Soundcraft user manual? Also, Paul White (editor in-chief of SoundonSound) has made a few books on different aspects of "sound" Like this one: http://www.studiospares.com/Books/Basic-Di...ing/invt/130250Very cheap too! Also, these kind of books are more for referring to, rather than your night-time read or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
