More than 10 hours of original footage filmed in HD make this the most powerful instructional series ever created for music production. Written and presented by Dark Side Of The Moon engineer, hit record producer and artist Alan Parsons, The Art & Science Of Sound Recording looks at everything from soundproofing to mixing, and from recording guitar, bass, keyboards, drums and vocals, to recording a choir.

More than 40 fellow professionals join Alan Parsons in this top quality, practical, and cutting edge guide to modern recording including Erykah Badu, Jimmy Douglass, Jack Joseph Puig, and Simon Phillips.

With an accompanying website from which you can download source material, The Art & Science Of Sound Recording examines the key elements of the recording process – EQ, compression, delays and reverbs, noise gates – then looks at how microphones work, mic techniques, the role of consoles and controllers in a modern DAW environment, MIDI, computers and interfaces, monitoring... concluding with a series of specific instrument and specific application recording sessions where you can see and Alan at work in the studio.

This invaluable instructional DVD set applies classic, old-school recording experience to the modern recording scene and will be a standard work on the subject for years to come.
