 Way too basic February 9, 2010
K. Smith
Not much in this book you can't find on your own. He goes through too many topics in too few pages for this book to be useful. Things are covered at a conceptual level only leaving much to be desired; so either you'll read it and feel like you were not given enough (if you're new to music production) or read it and feel like you wasted time and money (if you have even a basic level of experience).
 THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR EVERYONE December 17, 2007

THIS BOOK MIGHT BE GREAT FOR SOMEONE WHO ALREADY HAS SOME EXPERIENCE IN REMIXING, BUT NOT FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER DONE IT. AS THE AUTHOR HIMSELF WRITES:
"...it's crucial that you at least understand a digital audio sequencer's basic operations."
HE GOES ON SAYING THAT YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO RECORD A TRACK, SEQUENCE A MIDI PART, QUANTIZE A PERFORMANCE, AUTOMATE AN EFFECT, ETC., ETC.
WITHOUT THIS BACKGROUND YOU WASTED YOUR MONEY. THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR THE ABSOLUTE NOVICE AND I WISH THEY WOULD LET YOU KNOW THIS BEFORE YOU PURCHASE THE BOOK, BUT THEY DON'T. TO ME THE BOOK SHOULD BE TITLED "THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO REMIXING FOR THE INTERMEDIATE TO THE ADVANCE LEVEL REMIXER", OR AT LEAST AKNOWLEDGE THIS SOMEWHERE IN THE COVER. I STILL GIVE IT 4 STARS BECAUSE LIKE A SAID THIS BOOK IS GREAT FOR SOMEONE WHO ALREADY HAS SOME EXPERIENCE.

This is one of the better books I have read up to date. If you have a basic foundation of music production knowledge it will be extremely helpful - if you dont it will still be helpful. Great Book!!
 Excellent for the intermediate/advanced producer February 27, 2006

This book cuts right to the heart of techniques that you can build off of to form your own tricks and styles. It really helps to reveal the added capabilities you can get out of your existing sequencer and FX along with inspiring some discovery.
great introduction to remixing February 27, 2006

Great buy if you're looking specifically at remixing. The book does not dive into specific programming techniques for synthesizers at a detail enough to become a professional, but it is short enough that it became a quick reference for me on certain techniques. Very good read for the aspiring producer.
