Electronic Music: 25 Mixing Tips for Modern Electronic Music Production Kindle Edition

In the church where I attend service regularly, we recently purchased a mixer- basically to mix sound quality, but no one is well equipped to do the right mixing. In most times, despite the several attempts to create a great sound in the stereo field, we just couldn't get it right. Fortunately, I came across this book and started looking for answers on how I could help solve the issue at hand. It was kind of desperate.At first, because I literally have no clue about mixing, my assumption was -this is going to be very hard. To my surprise, IT IS NOT HARD AT ALL. Mind you, the writing style is so simple, in just a snap, I was blown away how my mind was switched on a 360 degree and end up saying, I can break a leg on this one.I would like to quote the author, that mixing is like building a house. You have to start brick by brick and choosing the right element that is important, rather than boosting all levels up to prevent a disaster- is what it's all about.As if I had a crash course about electronic mixing and got a perfect score at the comprehension exam- that's the feeling I got after reading this. No exaggeration. It was as if, a fishbone was taken off my throat. Finally, I can do something for the church.And because I highly recommend this book for the people who wanted help like me, here are the things that made this book worth 5 stars= easy to read writing construction, the explanation technique is downright steady and gradually increasing its level- you won't get choked up with information, great pro-tips- quite insightful, and a lot of HOW TO's including how to do complementary EQ'ing, how to dash off bad frequencies and more. There are topics that seem complicated to execute for me such as chain , parallel and other compressions, but I believe this is something that most musicians and mixers could relate- I am a newbie here, so basically although I understand that compression is the secret tool for mixing- I still have a lot to learn to make a kick-ass effects in the future or perhaps take my nook and literally read and do demo immediately after each page to get the feel of it. Oh before I forget- the claps and snares smashing reduction sound is awesome. Too much of the clapper is irritating, so the information I got is divine.

Electronic influenced music is always my favorite type of music, with all its variety: Industrial, New Wave, EBM, Trance, House to mention a few. The funny thing is when I ask to mix music everything is so alien to me. There are suggestions on this book on how to read it to get the maximum information out of it. I decided to read everything first then concentrate on things that interest me the most. Working on something you are comfortable with makes the learning much easier. Putting the fundamentals to heart which are clearly laid out in this book then practicing every day I was able to play the more famous hits. Now I am able to compose my own mix, more of a “drone” type of music. I am very proud my output; very atmospheric and I have nothing but gratitude to Roy Wilkenfeld for making easy what can be daunting at first glance. But of course once you learn the essentials you must push the envelope and use your innate creativity to improve.

Since I was little I enjoyed remixing / mixing electronic music and I wanted to get better at this and improve my skill. What will you get out of this book:* Well explained tips* Not too big not too short guideIt's worth the price!

A bit brief, a few good tips but not sure it is much use

Great little reminder of those key points that make things sound great.

Excellent book to understand basics of mixing audio and contains even advance creative ideas to treat fx .An ideal book for for a beginner yet for pro mixers .Very precise yet useful.

Quite a good book for the particular topic. It will be interesting for everyone, who just started mixing and producing own music. On the other hand pros wount find anything new, the information is rather an overview of basic mixing techniques. I would recommend buying a Kindl version, because the whole "book" contains about 50 pages which is not a good value for money (got it for 15€). Have fun mixing music!

Es un libro finito, que pedir como complemento de otro regalo. Es sencillo, de tapas blandas, pero está muy bien. justo lo que esperábamos
