David Moulton's TOTAL RECORDING
The Complete Guide to Audio Production and Engineering
Complete and comprehensive guide to audio production, and to engineering musical recordings in all genres. With its companion CD of audio examples, this thoroughly current package is full of in-depth information for professionals and students alike about the entire recording process.
Here's what David Moulton has to say:
Along with doing audio, I've been teaching audio for 30 years now! Excited by the rather startling success of Golden Ears, KIQ asked me to write a book about audio (which, I confess, I'd already started, sort of).
So I did. About a quarter of the way into it, I caught word fever and became a writing fool! What was planned to be about 250 pages wound up as 900 in the first draft! Crikey! Wotta motormouth! (Is this the lecture from hell, or what?) I don't think I'll ever do that again.
Anyway, we edited the thing down to about 500 pages, with 300 illustrations and a CD. What does it cover? Everything I personally can think of about audio except synthesizers. I tried for some real depth and some real historical perspective. Also, the presentation grows out of my teaching experience, and really focuses on some key areas where students get confused (such as decibels). As a result, I think you'll find it a little more useful than most texts, as well as a little more personal and idiosyncratic.
Golden EarsAn audio ear-training course for recording engineers, producers and musicians. Moulton started doing such training as an educational exercise for students back in 1969, and has since used it everywhere. In 1992, KIQ Productions asked Moulton to make it commercially available, and the rest is history.

I'm personally very proud of these drills, and pleasantly surprised and honored by how widely they've been adopted and put into use around the world. Many private individuals, studios, broadcasting organizations, colleges and universities have all adopted Golden Ears. I know of nothing else like them, except for a couple of very specialized and highly developed in-house computer programs for ear-training. Certainly nothing else that is commercially available. If you want to improve your audio hearing acuity and knowledge, these are a great tool!
Vol. 1: Frequencies
Trains you to recognize boosts and cuts in all ten octaves of the frequency spectrum. Progressive drills build from simple boosts in music to more demanding single octave cuts in pink noise.
Vol. 2: Effects & Processing
31 possible signal processing changes, grouped into simple families: amplitude change, gross and subtle distortion, slow and fast release compression, equalization changes, stereophony anomalies and time-delay / reverberation settings.
Vol. 3: Delays and Decays
Delay settings from tenths of a millisecond to whole seconds; panning / slap / spaciousness effects -- in mono and stereo, on sustained and transient sounds. Reverb parameters -- predelays, decay times, etc. Invaluable when creating programs.
Vol. 4: Master frequencies
Advanced EQ. Identify cuts and boosts to within a third of an octave; and two octave bands simultaneously boosted and/or cut.
