• Very Good Info 21 January, 2008
I am just geting started in home studio recording and I found the information in this book to be VERY valuable. It is so much more than "just put a mic 6"-8" in front of it and hit record". There are very useful starting points in placing mic's and in mic selection but ultimatly it is up to you to experiment and find what sounds good to you and your project.

• Good Reference Manual 30 January, 2006
a good mix of old and new school mic placement techniques. not a lot of information for me personally, but a handy reference just to see how somebody else might approach a situation.

• Simple Microphone Techniques 03 August, 2005
The book is extremely popular, too popular. Deeper insight like SMPTE reviews would have given me a better knowledge. However the enclosed CD with samples is worth the money alone. I would have appreciated that they had used the microphones they really wanted to demonstrate.

• Excellent Data For The Beginner 25 February, 2006
Hey, nothing replaces the value of time spent in a professional facility with an experienced engineer, but this book is useful when you've never had the opportunity to mic something like a bagpipe and you need some guidelines to get satisfying results quicker.
Additionally, there are other nuggets like the section on how to kill RF in mic signals... Sure, some of this info is available online but having it all put together in a logically presented title is valuable.
I really don't think the negative reviews are fair. No offence, but if you guys are so adept then what the heck would you need a book for?
Peace

• Excellent Book! 20 September, 2008
First, I would like to ask studioslave a question regarding his review of this book: In which part of it did you find information that isn't relevant to the professional recording industry? I've been recording professionally for more than 20 years and found the information to be very accurate and have seen most of the suggested mic techniques in use by professionals almost daily. If you didn't learn anything new from it and needed something more comprehensive or technical that's fine... but just say that... don't mislead others by suggesting that it isn't a book that's suited for "professionals" when that simply isn't true. This is an excellent book written by an excellent author and it's worth every penny. Now beat it kid... ya bother me.
