Book Description
Are you looking for a practical way to learn Audio Basics and Fundamentals but need help figuring out where to start? This technical booklet is for you! This booklet will assist aspiring Audio Technicians and Sound Engineers with developing the technical knowledge and skills to succeed. Are you a musician? Most musicians need help understanding the technical elements or the fundamentals of the musical equipment and audio systems they work with. But now musicians have an option! Our specialized guide is designed to help you understand the important technical basics. We use practical information, video clips, and handouts to help simplify the information. We will cover the basics, including audio cables and connectors, basic audio theory (to include impedance, balanced/unbalanced, line/mic levels, and attenuators), how to repair and make your own cables, test your equipment (cables, speakers, microphones, power, etc.), and even troubleshoot and quickly evaluate common problems. Knowing and understanding this information "can" and "will" help save you time and money. All the information is detailed but simplified as well. The video clips (links are shown in blue) will help bring it all together. Read the booklet, and view the information in action on the video clips for a comprehensive "Interactive" learning experience. After reading this booklet, you can make new cables or repair your existing cables, perform basic tests and measurements, and troubleshoot (and possibly repair) common problems such as cable / speaker / microphone issues, scratchy gain controls, hum / noise, no power, mixer inputs and outputs, signal issues, and 70-Volt systems – that could save you time and money.

Op Amps for Everyone
Author: Ron Mancini
Publisher: Newnes
ISBN: 0750677015
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
The operational amplifier ("op amp") is the most versatile and widely used type of analog IC, used in audio and voltage amplifiers, signal conditioners, signal converters, oscillators, and analog computing systems. Almost every electronic device uses at least one op amp. This book is Texas Instruments' complete professional-level tutorial and reference to operational amplifier theory and applications. Among the topics covered are basic op amp physics (including reviews of current and voltage division, Thevenin's theorem, and transistor models), idealized op amp operation and configuration, feedback theory and methods, single and dual supply operation, understanding op amp parameters, minimizing noise in op amp circuits, and practical applications such as instrumentation amplifiers, signal conditioning, oscillators, active filters, load and level conversions, and analog computing. There is also extensive coverage of circuit construction techniques, including circuit board design, grounding, input and output isolation, using decoupling capacitors, and frequency characteristics of passive components. The material in this book is applicable to all op amp ICs from all manufacturers, not just TI. Unlike textbook treatments of op amp theory that tend to focus on idealized op amp models and configuration, this title uses idealized models only when necessary to explain op amp theory. The bulk of this book is on real-world op amps and their applications; considerations such as thermal effects, circuit noise, circuit buffering, selection of appropriate op amps for a given application, and unexpected effects in passive components are all discussed in detail. *Published in conjunction with Texas Instruments *A single volume, professional-level guide to op amp theory and applications *Covers circuit board layout techniques for manufacturing op amp circuits.

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 662
Book Description
Building Valve Amplifiers is a unique hands-on guide for anyone working with tube audio equipment--as an electronics hobbyist, audiophile or audio engineer. This 2nd Edition builds on the success of the first with technology and technique revisions throughout and, significantly, a major new self-build project, worked through step-by-step, which puts into practice the principles and techniques introduced throughout the book. Particular attention has been paid to answering questions commonly asked by newcomers to the world of the valve, whether audio enthusiasts tackling their first build or more experienced amplifier designers seeking to learn about the design principles and trade-offs of "glass audio." Safety considerations are always to the fore, and the practical side of this book is reinforced by numerous clear illustrations throughout. The only hands-on approach to building valve and tube amps--classic and modern--with a minimum of theory Design, construction, fault-finding, and testing are all illustrated by step-by-step examples, enabling readers to clearly understand the content and succeed in their own projects Includes a complete self-build amplifier project, putting into practice the key techniques introduced throughout the book

The Guitar Amp Handbook
Author: Dave Hunter
Publisher: Hal Leonard Corporation
ISBN: 9780879308636
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
(Book). There's a huge amount of hype and mythology surrounding tube amplifiers in the guitar world. For years, experts have argued over the tiny details of exactly how they do what they do, and how their various components interact. What's undeniable is that, far more than being just a "loudness booster," the unique combination of tubes, capacitors, resistors, and transformers in these amps can contribute enormously to the quality of sound derived from any electric guitar. In this thorough and authoritative book, Dave Hunter cuts through the marketing hyperbole, and the blind faith, and supplies all the information you need to choose the right amp, and get the best from it. The book also features exclusively conducted, in-depth interviews with leading figures in the tube amp-building world including Ken Fischer, Mark Sampson, and Michael Zaite and even provides full instructions on how to construct your own high-quality tube guitar amp from scratch.
