Good books on recording and mixing for a pro-am electric guitar player?
I have a friend who plays guitar who wants a book on recording and mixing.
My advice would be to just go on YouTube and find stuff online, but she is insistent on a book.
What books would you recommend?
Comments
Wow... recording very quickly focuses in on a DAW application or piece of kit. So, a book should be proposed that makes sense given a proposed DAW.
Does your friend has a bias towards a laptop, desktop or IOS device or is all of that going to follow on from the proposed book? These hardware devices are a significant capital outlay and the costs of software on each option is also a factor.
So, more details to help define requirements... just looking at "books" it appears that everything "popular" is 5-10 years old at this point. People are not going to books but more to video tutorials as a general pattern as you suggested.
The most pertinent requirement would be budget... then there are experts here to recommend the bast way to spend that budget and make recordings.
