Sound Production introduces students to applying the processes of audio techniques within the sphere of media production. Presuming no prior technical knowledge, Andrew Lansley focuses on universal techniques that will work across all contemporary software and be of use to those needing to work with sound for radio, TV, film, videogames and websites.

The format of the text follows a simple structure broken down into three main parts:

Part 2: Techniques & Processes - including recording, digitising and organising, editing, equalisation, dynamic processes, FX processes, mixing, fixing and mastering
Part 3: Industry Specific Applications & Exercises - including the radio, film/TV, web and gaming industries.
