Possibly the greatest book on mixing ever written. Get this book if you're just starting to or if you want to learn more. - Dr. Kenneth on Amazon Just wanted you to know that I am using your Mix book as REQUIRED text in two of my college classes. It has been working out great!! The kids love it, and it makes my job VERY easy! - Bruce Tambling You helped me so much with that book, sir. Guess what? An album I completely recorded, mixed and mastered went #1 in the german album charts last week. . . incredible. - Martin Gundoz Your 5 elements frame work has been a watershed for me. It has completely blown the lid off how I listen to, analyze and think about music. That concept has moved me farther than any other 10 books put together or a years worth of study. - John Gold If you want the best collection of stuff people hang out in studios for months, or years to acquire, then this book is for you. - Michael Rempel Well I doubt anything could seriously beat Bobby Owsinski's sweet bible ... which turned me into a mixing-fanatic ... - Philip on Amazon The Mixing Engineer's Handbook by Bobby Owsinski is superb, a must have. Everytime I pick it up I learn something. . . - DJ from Calgary
