Selecting a text for an undergraduate audio production class is a dicey proposition. There are a limited number in print, and some are commercial-focused, while other skew towards documentary, video, or music. Technical scope is another issue. Some read like pure technology primers while others simply skip over the physics smarts one needs to understand why audio tools work the way they do. And currency is always an issue, so regular updates are a must.
Whether someone creates content for broadcast, web, or power point presentations, good AV skills are an essential communication competency. This book works well in providing an up-to-date generalist’s guide
to producing decent quality audio. It also includes key topics like copyright and ethics, which are useful in making the point to novices that just because you CAN do something doesn’t mean its OK to do so.
The self tests and step-by-step exercises are useful in reinforcing concepts by matching them with ears-on learning. An enclosed CD lets anyone with a pc and speakers begin to make the kinds of intellectual and auditory correlations needed to make a lasting impression.
As someone who teaches audio at the undergraduate level, I’ve used several texts over the last 4 years, and am pleased (and relieved) to say that the 6th edition of APW is the book I’ll be moving on to in the coming academic year.
