"Writing a manual on sound engineering is not an easy undertaking. Many tried it and finding a writing that is comprehensible, universal and of high technical quality is a tour de force that Saintrick Mayitoukou achieves in his work."
“Comprendre et pratiquer la sonorisation de spectacle” is an educational, practical and technical work, consisting of 264 pages and amply illustrated, that explains clearly not only to sound technicians and sound engineers, amateurs and students in the sector, but also to musicians all there is to know about microphones, wires, mixing panels, signal processing and loudspeakers, through to the pioneering Line Array technology.
The careful presentation makes reading easy and pleasant. The work is completed by a glossary and other annexes.
