Others say...

"Recommended"
A good read for the amateur recordist. The book is easy to understand and covers a vast array of concepts.

"Great Introduction"
Just good all around info, for the novice. Much can be learned by the newbie, and this book will facilitate greater understanding, as the reader progresses to much deeper and complicated material. I highly recommend it, unless you already have a good fundemental grasp of the subject. I've been involved with it (recording) for a while, and basically bought it for friends and musicians to review. Even so, I still learned a thing or two myself. Good book, for it's intended audiance.

"Very helpful"
As a newcomer to the home recording scene, I would highly recommend this book. It has everything you need without weighing you down with technical recording jargon. Very well written.

"Great to get started"
This book is easy to understand and has a huge amount of useful information for anyone getting started in home recording. It also has more advanced information that it flags as technical. You can read this if you want to but you don't need it to understand the advice and concepts. I was given wrong advice by someone who should know better. If I'd read this book first, I would have known the advice was wrong and would have been in a better position to judge what I really needed and not waste my money.

"the best..thanks"
When all else failed, I turned to this book. It is humorous, made me feel like I was not stupid, and was LOADED with information that was in a language I understood. Looking back on other books I had purchased before this one, I realized it had the same info. The author of this amazing book is no dummy. He knows how to communicate for the everyman. I have made some astounding projects thanks to Home Recording for Musicians for Dummies by Jeff Strong. With the deepest of gratitude.

"The best begginer recording book ever...", I have used dummies books for just about everything I need to learn about that I don't already know. They have always been found to be helpful and full of information that I would have otherwise either not understood or had no clue about.
I have been messing around with recording myself for quite some time. I recently purchased Cakewalk Sonar Producer edition for my laptop to do some home recording for a demo I am producing. I purchased the venerable Power Books on the subject, as well as used the online Help. All of which are fine for the program, but if you really want to learn what it takes to record a great sound, you need this book. It covers all the topics, in a simple, straight forward way, for an amateur musician to understand all the concepts, hardware and processes involved in getting that great sound out of your hard work. There is no frustration here trying to figure out what it all means. No lengthy babbling about what, how and why.
If your a pro, well, Dummies books certainly aren't for you unless you need a reference, however, if you just simply want to learn how to do it, this is the book for you.
With all that being said, I have already cut three songs that I previously recorded without using this book and the sound is light years ahead of my original recordings.
If you are going to school to study Sound or Sound reinforcement, then reading this book will give you a hedge in your classes.
Stop trying to do it yourself without learning the basics and get this book. It will save you a lot of frustration and time and have you produce that sound you've always been looking for!

"Handy Book", I'm the person this book was written for. I'm a musician and when I record I'm not interested in delving into the subtle nuances of sound manipulation, I just want to play. I found this book to be a great reference, full of tips and tricks that are easy to apply. For anyone that's ever played around with live recording, the concepts are clear and the information understandable. I think it's a great reference book.

"Great beginner book", I have been recording a little on my Fostex MR8 and a little on my computer. I have a few audio editing programs, but was just fuddling through. I didn't know the difference between a dynamic mic and a condenser, didn't know how to properly mic a cabinet, or even which frequencies bring out the best aspects of an instrument. This book solved all of those programs. If you need detailed info on computer recording or MIDI, go elsewhere. If you want a good smattering of audio, digital, computer, and MIDI recording, this is the book for you.

"very useful book but it won't answer all of your questions", I've just started recording on my pc on a budget, this book has definitely provided some helpful tips. Since I'm recording exclusively on the pc, it has alot of information I don't need since it covers a variety of recording methods. The Dummies book for PC recording may have been a better choice for me, but I haven't read it so I can't be sure. If you're just getting started like me, I don't think this book will answer all your questions. But along with some internet browsing and some questions at your local music store, this book is useful so at least you have a basic idea of what to ask and look for.

"Lots of useful information", According to my 17-year-old guitar and drum playing son, this book has lots of useful information for home recording. He's got a Tascam 8-track recording deck in the basement and has used this book to learn how to better use the Tascam. I guess I'd recommend it to anyone who does home recording. If my kid finds it useful, I'm sure you will, too. Unless you're already a home recording expert.

"Great Book For Home Recording", This is a great book for home recording enthusiasts looking to sharpen their skills. Every aspect of the recording process is covered in depth using easy to understand language and examples. I definately recommend this book to anyone interested in learning the recording process.

"Good for beginners", This book is basically recording 101. I think it actually even advertises it as that. Well...It only covers basics and the basic techniques of compression, expansion, etc. It doesn't get much more into anything beyond that or advanced. True, if I hadn't taken Audio Arts I at my college, I would've bought it...But I did and I see I already know 90% of the info in it.

"Great Book", This book helped me win the song contest http://www.songoftheyear.com for songwriters

"Just buy it", For a long time i have been messing around with recording on a 4-track and my pc but getting bad results, but having no idea why, or what i need to do or buy to get some quality recordings. So i bought this book and it has opened up a whole world of home digital recording to me that i never had any way of accessing before. i now feel like i could confidently walk into a shop and buy the things i need and know exactly what im talking about, and know exactly what im looking for. If you want to get into home recording and dont know where to start, just buy this book, its all you need. I cant comment on whether more experienced musical technicians would find it insteresting as well, but im sure it would make a good reference book for them.
what are you waiting for?

"Excellent source of information", This book is great!!!! I have been messing around with home recording for about 2 years, So I say I am still new at this. This book has got me off on the right foot, and helped to set up the studio I have now. It has also shown what kinda of upgrades I can make in the future. I now have everything that I want to get in the future laid out in the order I want/need to get them. I highly recommend this book
