i want to buy all the harry potter books on audio book
how much would they all cost together? or how much dus 1 cost?
and links would be good :)

I have them all, and estimating: the first 3 should cost 40 dollars each, and the other four should cost like 60 dollars each.

You are talking about a 300 dollar purchase or more, it’s not cheap.

Im researching topics on "introduction to sound engineering applied to live and on-studio sound reinforcement". I really want to be able to relate the theory to practical applications. So I´d rather less physics and more hands-on information.

Topics include:

History of sound recording
History of electronic sound technology
Tape recording technology: applications and techniques
Sound fundamentals, and their practical applications
Basics of digital audio
Diferences between digital and analogue audio technology
Basics of DC and AC: circuits and applications to sound reinforcement
Impedance and resistance
Frequency response vs Bith depth: practical implications
Dynamic range
AD / DA converters
Microphones and mic set up techniques for live sound and studio recording
Loud speakers: design and applications
Sound processors: Compresors, filters, Signal oscilators, Samplers, Effects…

Preamps
Sound related transducers
Sound Cables and conectors

What are some good books to get these kind of basics down and solid?
Links or ISBN references are quite welcome!

Thank you!

The "Yamaha sound reinforcement handbook" is good for basic live sound,
but I notice you are missing one MAJOR element: Acoustics, it is where the rubber meets the road.
To remedy that, I would suggest: "The Master handbook of acoustics" and "The physics of musical instruments".
Learn some basic electronics, it is always useful in all sorts of ways, "The art of electronics" is good for this, and learn to solder, so useful.

www.prosoundweb com is a goldmine of resources (but they will rip you a new one if you don’t play by the rules over there), and www.soundonsound.com has some excellent forums and the mag is not bad either.

HTH.

One of the books i have is called" Recommended Practices for Installation of Underground Liquid Storage Systems," and I just don’t have the time to sit and read through this and all of the other reference books I have for the exam. Is there any location I can obtain copies of such books in audio format and/or practice exams to help me prepare for the exam?

I think you defiantly get audio books of underground storage tank, i know a web where you can get free opportunity to download audio book, by following the below source.

I know of audiobooks.co.uk but think they only deliver cds. Not sure if itunes do it, anyone know any sites? Free or paid.

Here’s a few you could look at. The first has the same name as the one you mention, but is .com instead of co.uk and they do have mediums other than CDs.

YAKiToMe! http://www.yakitome.com is a free website that lets you turn any electronic text into an audio book. It reads in various languages with regionally accented voices. Output is an mp3 that you can download, share, and podcast.

You can get free books in electronic text format to feed to YAKiToMe! at Project Gutenberg http://www.gutenberg.org.

I barely started reading it today and I already made it to Chapter 17 out of 26. I can’t stand it no more I am tired and need and audio book to finish the job.

See if your public library has a copy.

Downloading it would be illegal.

I just watched "Memoirs of A Geisha" after listening to the unabridged audio book several times. Wow does the movie leave a lot out.

Did you prefer the book or the movie?

The movie had some beautiful scenery and gave a good idea about Sayuri’s life, but I think the book was so much better!!

The book was much better. The characters were well established and were multi dimensional. When i read the book, i was in love with the chairman.
But in the film, the characters were flat and stereotyped. There were no dimensions to them. They were either good or bad. the screenplay writers apparently didn’t think giving shades to their characters was important.

I have all 7 Harry Potter Audio Books, but each audio book is in 1 file!
I know how to merge the audio books but I don’t know the times of each chapter! If you know the times from any book can you please post an answer! Thanks!
