About this book
Mixing Secrets for the Small Studio is the best-selling primer for small-studio enthusiasts who want chart-ready sonics in a hurry, and this extensively updated third edition now contains sections on DSP phase-linearization, loudness normalization, oversampling, mixing from stems, frequency shifting, and analog summing.
