Snyder Releases A Crash Course to Making Your Mark in the Recording Industry

news · 2014-10-10

My Focal Press Author's panel PSE14 at #AESorg’s #137th for PSFocal Press and CreativeLive have partnered with Ohio University’s Kyle P. Snyder to create the ebook A Crash Course to Making Your Mark in the Recording Industry. Intended for all aspiring and current audio recording practitioners, A Crash Course to Making Your Mark in the Recording Industry provides an overview of a wide-range of central topics related to the business and technical trade of recording.

Designed to help the reader quickly understand how best to achieve success in this industry and comprised of original material and excerpts from Focal Press titles and CreativeLive video courses, this ebook presents coverage of music business, audio fundamentals, pre-production, production, and post production. The title was edited by Kyle P. Snyder, one of the Audio Engineering Society’s leading experts on audio education and a Lecturer in Ohio University’s School of Media Arts & Studies.

Jim Anderson, Past-President of the Audio Engineering Society and a nine-time Grammy award winner with twenty-five Grammy nominations said of A Crash Course, “Anyone who wants to, as the title suggests, make their mark in the music industry must have these pages imbedded in their DNA before starting on their journey.” When people try to break into this field (and long after), they go about it in their own unique way; that is why everyone involved is eager to share this text with the public.

According to Alex Case, noted author and Associate Professor of Sound Recording Technology at University of Massachusetts Lowell, “We don’t just want information on working in the recording industry— we want quality information…For a concentrated dose of quality content on the recording industry, start here.”

Jeff Dean, Focal Press senior publisher remarked, “There is no better person in the industry than Kyle P. Snyder to develop this high-value content, and we couldn’t be more delighted with the result.” Dean explained, “This is an outstanding collaboration between Focal Press and CreativeLive, as both companies strive to create exceptionally high quality content for audio education.

”The resources available in the ebook were designed to help individuals quickly understand a topic and best-achieve success in our tumultuous, ever-changing world. Whether one is just entering the field or has been in it for decades, it is our sincere hope he or she will find it a useful guide.

Snyder to Moderate Focal Press Author Panel at AES 137

blog · 2014-09-19

This year at the 137th Audio Engineering Society Convention, Focal Press will be hosting an Author Panel (complete details) on the main Project Studio Expo Stage where Focal authors will discuss “Mixing Perspectives: Tales of Achieving Big Studio Results on a Project Studio Budget.”

The panel will feature the likes of Mike Senior (Mixing Secrets & Recording Secrets for the Small Studio), Alex Case (Mix Smart & SoundFX), Jason Corey (Audio Production & Critical Listening), and David Miles Huber (Modern Recording Techniques, 7e). I’m particularly pleased to announce that Focal Press has once again asked me to moderate this panel of great authors, which I think will be a great session for all in attendance. I’ve worked with Focal Press for some time now and have always been impressed with the immensely high level of technical expertise that their authors bring to the table, and this panel is sure to further that reputation. It’s worth noting that the 137th AES Convention will bring other non-panel related Focal press from me as well, so stay tuned for that as well!

If you have questions for these authors, either for someone specific or in general on the topic of the author’s panel, I’d invite you to leave your question in the comments below (or via twitter directed to @KylePSnyder) as I absolutely welcome suggestions from our audience.

I hope to see you at the AES Convention, and I’d invite you to join us on Sunday, October 13th at 11am. For more details, be certain to consult your AES program.
