One reader writes: "My only dislike of this book is that it didn't come sooner for me. I don't consider myself a novice, nor do I think of myself as an expert. I fall somewhere in the middle and think I can still benefit greatly from the topics covered in this book. Unless you've gone to college as a sound engineer, there is something useful for you in this book ! "
