Between the Lines: Concepts in Sound System Design and Alignment

Rate this book
Between the Lines is a book about tuning sound systems for live events, but more importantly, it's a book about making decisions. Beginning with an overview of system design fundamentals, the author then shares his personal approach to sound system design and alignment, and his rationale - not only why decisions are made, but also the order in which they are made, which can have a profound effect on the resulting uniformity of the system.
Readers will learn to consider the outcomes and tradeoffs throughout the process, and the author's school of thought yields a mental framework for creating consistency, regardless of the size, scope, or scale of the sound system.

FANTASTIC. This book belongs right alongside Yamaha Sound Reinforcement and (the holy grain) Sound Systems Design and Optimization.

Michael did a great job making the concepts easy to understand and digest for readers of all experience levels. A must read for those who work with systems in live sound.

9.5/10 Excellent book, way less mathematical and easier to read than most book on the topic. Well structured and encourage the reader to think for himself
