a fascinating new book on audio processing algorithms. It starts from

basics of digital audio engineering and signal processing, and then contin-

ues to explain in detail the most important audio effects algorithms. I very

much like the chapter on delay-line effects, which gives a great overview of

all the well-known methods, such as slapback and ping-pong delay effects,

and anging and chorus algorithms. This book not only explains the basic

idea and applications of each method, but also briey shows the mathemat-

ics in the background of all techniques.

Vesa Vlimki, Aalto University, Esbo, Finland

This book strikes a great balance between theory and get-your-hands-dirty

applications. The strong orientation to families of effects found in every

recording studio means that readers of this book can look forward to making

a full set of useful, relevant, real-world effects.

Alex U. Case, University of Massachusetts Lowell, USA

Audio Effects: Theory, Implementation and Application explores

digital audio effects relevant to audio signal processing and music

informatics. It supplies fundamental background information on digital

signal processing, focusing on audio-specic aspects that constitute the

building block on which audio effects are developed. The text integrates

theory and practice, relating technical implementation to musical implica-

tions. It can be used to gain an understanding of the operation of existing

audio effects or to create new ones. In addition to delivering detailed

coverage of common (and unusual) audio effects, the book discusses

current digital audio standards, most notably VST and AudioUnit. Source

code is provided in C/C++ and implemented as audio effect plug-ins with

accompanying sound samples. Each section of the book includes study

questions, anecdotes from the history of music technology, and examples

that offer valuable real-world insight, making this an ideal resource for

researchers and for students moving directly into industry.
