The best book on the subject! - By: P. Hazel, 13 Sep 2000
Thoroughly updated 4th edition. As well as definitive & thorough descriptions of the basics of digital audio, DAT, & CD, (and lots, lots, more besides) it now includes new sections on MD, Firewire, USB, & DVD. Useful chapters on perceptual coding & audio for the PC. For good measure, it now includes a good introduction to the issues involved in streaming audio across the Internet. Absolutely essential one-stop solution for musicians, students, & lecturers.
An excellent survey of the digital audio landscape. - By: , 23 Apr 1998
An excellent intermediate survey of the digital audio landscape. This text covers conversion, signal processing, channel coding & storage as well as current implementations of the technology. Good illustrations are included for visual reinforcement. Pohlmann's breezy writing style guides the reader from basic physics through dense theoretical discussion to practical examples. A freshman college background in physics & mathematics is useful though not essential.
