In this thorough introduction to the technology behind audio
workstations, Dr Francis Rumsey explains not only how digital audio
works but also how to make best use of its capabilities. A combined
revision of his two successful titles, MIDI Systems and Control and
The Audio Workstation Handbook, this new book covers recent
developments such as surround sound formats, direct stream digital,
new audio project formats, new interfaces and alternatives to
MIDI.Desktop Audio Technology begins by setting out principles of
digital audio and how these are applied in recording, replay and
editing within workstations. MIDI and synthetic audio control is
then covered, looking at the means by which artificial sounds can
be controlled and manipulated. This is followed by explanations of
hardware, including storage devices, buses, computer interfaces and
audio processing options. Dr Rumsey then focuses on transferring
audio between systems, including coverage of audio interfaces,
networking and file formats. The next section examines audio
software, providing working examples of different commercial
packages that exemplify some of the concepts previously described.
The final chapter considers operational issues such as recent
spatial reproduction formats, consumer format mastering and quality
control issues, as well as troubleshooting and systems issues.If

and are looking for an authoritative technical guide to the
underlying principles of digital audio and MIDI, this book is for
