WARNING: Not for Newbies
By Ethan Winer
This month The Audio Expert publishes by the always colorful, widely followed Ethan Winer. Ethan has, at various times, worked as a studio musician, computer programmer, circuit designer, recording engineer, composer/arranger, technical writer, and college instructor. He’s had nearly 100 feature articles published in audio and computer magazines including Mix, PC Magazine, Electronic Musician, EQ Magazine, Audio Media, Sound on Sound, Keyboard, Pro Sound News, and Recording. Ethan is the audio industry’s very own myth buster and in his new book, he has a lot to say. But before the book even hits the warehouse and the web, he wants to makes sure it very clear as to whom this book is written for… Hundreds of books about audio have been published over the years, so you might well ask why we need another book on the topic.
