Published reviews: 'It was refreshing to have a book that was so clearly written for the average person... It really belongs on your shelf if you are starting out with audio editing, and if you are already fairly comfortable with audio it is an excellent reference work.' Jim Harvey, www.creativecow.net Reviews of previous edition: 'Roger Derry's book is a masterpiece of well-presented theory combined with useful practical advice. It is an excellent bridge between the subjects of sound recording and digital audio processing.' David Kirk, editor, ClickTX.com 'PC Audio Editing takes a complex subject, littered with technical minefields, and escorts the user safely through. Roger Derry's careful explanations and pragmatic advice guide the complete novice through every aspect of the subject matter with relevant underpinning theory where appropriate. Experienced practitioners, too, will find plenty of helpful suggestions and techniques to produce the best possible results from the available technology.' Hugh Robjohns, editor, Line Up Magazine. '...an excellent book for those finding their way around PC Editing for the first time, or indeed, requiring a refresher course. It makes a surprisingly good read for a technical book, largely because the style is that of a very experienced operator chatting you through the whole business and sharing his hard won experience with plenty of tips and clear explanations to help you along. Well done Roger!' Ron Godwyn, Line Up Magazine 'A great little book - especially for anyone taking his or her first steps in recording and editing audio on a PC.' Brett Moss, Pro Audio Review
