    Default Any one recommend any good books

    I'm looking for something to read, a real book i can take to the bog with me, not an ebook

    I'm looking at the following, and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on them or any recommendations

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Creative-Seq...0153011&sr=1-5

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mixing-Engin...ref=pd_sim_b_4

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mixing-Audio...ref=pd_sim_b_4

    I have very limited music theory knowledge, but do really enjoy the technical side of things. I'm not after a book explaing how to mic up recordings of real bands etc, more something aimed at electronic music

    those last 2 links are good.
    Mixing engineers handbook is good.
    I wouldn`t recommend anything that gives "creative" sequencing advice or anything like that.
    They are normally the opposite of creative.
    A good book about mixing and then listen to lots and lots and lots of DIFFERENT types of music is the best lesson.
    I am listening to a ton of modern minimalism in classical music at the mo, to push my musical technique.
    Best way of learning IMO
    I am not here but my ghost still lingers

    Mixing Engineers Handbook is a good book. Behind The Glass is also quite interesting....
