Preface
<The Art Of Mixing> - A visual guide to Recording,Engineering and Production,by David Gibson,Technical edit by Geoge Petersen.MixBooks书系与1997年推出的，至今被奉为全球Mixing技术葵花宝典级别的重弹。在Preface里作者提到了两个最关键的问题：
⒈What makes a great mix?
⒉How do you go about creating a great mix?
而这两个问题，也正是这本书要回答的。(What this book has been designed for.)作者详细的叙述了这本书本打造的原因与服务的主旨。即通过视觉手段来帮助读着建立并认定自己的缩混价值观，缩混美学。
The recording engineer makes the relationship between the equipment dynamics and the musical dynamics work.This is the art of mixing.
Marks：
①Once you know what the knobs do,Which way do you turn them.
②Perhaps no one has attacked this complex subject of mixing due to the lack of the framework to analyze the process.
③Once you have perspective on what can be done,you can be truly creative on your own.
④The perfect mix to one person may be the worst mix to another.
⑤...,These engineers command an exorbitant fees because they're capeble of coming up with sth. the most people perceive as great,every time.
