Pages : 393

Book Description
(Technical Reference). More than simply the book of the award-winning DVD set, Art & Science of Sound Recording, the Book takes legendary engineer, producer, and artist Alan Parsons' approaches to sound recording to the next level. In book form, Parsons has the space to include more technical background information, more detailed diagrams, plus a complete set of course notes on each of the 24 topics, from "The Brief History of Recording" to the now-classic "Dealing with Disasters." Written with the DVD's coproducer, musician, and author Julian Colbeck, ASSR, the Book offers readers a classic "big picture" view of modern recording technology in conjunction with an almost encyclopedic list of specific techniques, processes, and equipment. For all its heft and authority authored by a man trained at London's famed Abbey Road studios in the 1970s ASSR, the Book is also written in plain English and is packed with priceless anecdotes from Alan Parsons' own career working with the Beatles, Pink Floyd, and countless others. Not just informative, but also highly entertaining and inspirational, ASSR, the Book is the perfect platform on which to build expertise in the art and science of sound recording.

Guitar Axis Masterclass Turnarounds

Author: Don Mock
Publisher: Warner Bros. Publications
ISBN: 9780757994289
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 0

Book Description
Turnaraounds are short four-chord progressions often found at the end of tunes to set up and return to the beginning. They can also be found in other parts of tunes and even as the primary progression, such as in "I Got Rhythm," as well as many other bebop, jazz, and blues tunes. Turnarounds can be a thorn in the side of guitar players because they often require playing separate scales for each chord. And at faster tempos, switching from one scale to another while improvising can be very challenging. This lesson is aimed at giving you usable ideas for improvising over turnarounds, specifically the two-bar version where each chord receives only two beats. You'll learn "Master Melodies," a powerful yet simple tool that quickly arms you with dozens of eighth-note lines that "sound" each of the four chords in the progression. You'll also learn techniques for adding rhythmic variations to melodies. "Scales for Turnarounds" is a special chapter outlining the best scale choices to use for each chord in the turnaround plus a look at turnarounds in the blues progression. The lesson also features eighth-note turnaround etudes packed with classic and modern melodic ideas. The hour-long CD features demonstrations of each example by Don Mock, including numerous expanded performances. And try out your new ideas with any of the professional play-along tracks. Book jacket.
