Audio Engineering books

[LeSedna]

Hello,

I was thinking... There are several mixing/mastering books, more or less technicall and well known... But what about audio "engineering" ? I've had a fairly decent level in maths, physics, and signal treatment, as well as electronics designing, and so I'd be interested in learning more theory about recording, microphones, signals in AE etc. I'm not interested in too much vulgarisation but something that could have most of the theory aspects in it. It would definitely bring interesting knowledge.

Are there some good books you would recommend for this ?

Thomas Görne - TONTECHNIK is like a bible

But I dont know if this book is released in France.
He also wrote a book only about Mics...

In the TONTECHNIK book you find everything:

-the physics
-system-theory (shannon/Nyquist)
-electronics
-Room accustics
-recording-technics (MS /XY /AB/and many more)

Thanks, that's exactly the kind of books I'm interested in

PS : Isn't it only in deutsch ?

Celui-là couvre assez bien les bases même si il commence à dater un peu...

I hope not, but the best way is to ask amazon directly...

cheers and good luck

Modern Recording Techniques is a great overview of basically everything!

if you want to know about signals etc and more of the technical stuff then you're best looking up stuff on DSP
