Book Reviews of The Complete Guide to Remixing: Produce Professional Dance-Floor Hits on Your Home Computer

Book Review: THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR EVERYONE
Summary: 4 Stars

THIS BOOK MIGHT BE GREAT FOR SOMEONE WHO ALREADY HAS SOME EXPERIENCE IN REMIXING, BUT NOT FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER DONE IT. AS THE AUTHOR HIMSELF WRITES:

"...it's crucial that you at least understand a digital audio sequencer's basic operations."

HE GOES ON SAYING THAT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO RECORD A TRACK, SEQUENCE A MIDI PART, QUANTIZE A PERFORMANCE, AUTOMATE AN EFFECT, ETC., ETC.

WITHOUT THIS BACKGROUND YOU WASTED YOUR MONEY. THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR THE ABSOLUTE NOVICE AND I WISH THEY WOULD LET YOU KNOW THIS BEFORE YOU PURCHASE THE BOOK, BUT THEY DON'T. TO ME THE BOOK SHOULD BE TITLED "THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO REMIXING FOR THE INTERMEDIATE TO THE ADVANCE LEVEL REMIXER", OR AT LEAST AKNOWLEDGE THIS SOMEWHERE IN THE COVER. I STILL GIVE IT 4 STARS BECAUSE LIKE A SAID THIS BOOK IS GREAT FOR SOMEONE WHO ALREADY HAS SOME EXPERIENCE.
