[J-malice]

i know there are some people on this website that knows the technicalities about recording and not jus the plug in the mic and press t he red button...im talkin about the people that had studied audio engineering...to those people...have you come across any books that give good information about how to record...like levels, the diff. between a good recording, and a bad one, filters, dynamic range and all the good stuff??? because i know there are some books that jus tell u basics and bullish..

 

[Ash Holmz]

yo check out tweakheadz.com they got mad recording tutorials...evrything u need to know....use the net....books are just wastse of money...same information

 

[J-malice]

I took a course back in 1994 and it was good, but not great. I just happened to get jerked because it was based on maily theory, not much hands-on stuff. I can't remember the book we used but it has tons of good info. You can't really go wrong with most audio engineering books, I like the older books because it involves all the old gear and techniques. With today's books they might take shortcuts and talk only about PC recording, etc.

TIM U MIGHT BE ABLE TO HIT IAR, OR FIVE TOWNS COLLEGE, SINCE U SO CLOSE TO NY.
I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AT FIVE TOWNS MYSELF BUT MY MONEY WASNT RIGHT.

They have a new school for engineering in nyc too called dmx its part of turo college..They offer hands on stuff first and after you complete the course you have 30 college credits...IAR if you can read music (notes) after you're finished they give you a full scholorship to five towns

here's a link to dmx

if you like the sunshine then theres one in florida call fullcell or somethin like that, i THINKKKKK not 100 percent sure, but i think they they do hands on with pro tools, and really get down in there. i think they even did some sessions with a couple mainstream artists there...no forget that i KNOW they did a couple sessions with a couple mainstream artists. but yea its somethin to check out...i wish i could be there right now instead of highschool

For A Book:

"YAMAHA's THE SOUND REINFORCEMENT HANDBOOK"

I got that when i was 12 and I didnt understand one thing it said in there. But after a while i started reading about stuff i didnt know and i started getting it. I'd recommend this, its like an Encyclopedia of Sound.

This will last you for years, And its big enough to hurt somebody if you throw it.

 

[inrctyhoodmusic]

It's called fullsail and they have a great hands on program in engineering and pre production as well

The only place to go!

 

[joeburnem]

I went to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh for audio and video engineering. I had to drop out at the beginning of my second year. It was too costly. I got a job working as a staff producer/engineer's assistant at a local sudio.
