It caters mostly to professional sound-recording-and- reinforcement people, but I've found it full of practical information, designs, and explanations that would interest anyone wanting know more about what happens to most of the recorded music we hear. The writing style allows the articles to get fairly technical without getting boring. Looking through some back issues I find articles on: Acoustic Wave Theory, Broadcast Signal Processing, Stereo Microphone Techniques, Recording Studio Design and Acoustics, Books on Architectural Acoustics (review), Time, Energy, and Frequency Measurements, "A Visit to KEF Laboratories", Audio Control of Laser Displays, Digital Delay Systems, Electronic Digital Editing, Creating Synthesized Sounds for Star Trek (!) -- as well as: a monthly column on digital audio by Barry Blesser, reviews of various recording/production studios around the country, and reviews of professional & semi-professional equipment. DB offers a very nice look into the values and concerns of the recording industry. Their address is: DB - The Sound Engineering Magazine Sagamore Publishing Co. 1120 Old Country Road Plainview, New York 11803 I think the yearly subscription rate is around $14, though I've seen it as low as $10 for new subscribers.
