                      2 out of 5 stars Well intended, but flawed execution.......2005-12-17

                      To be honest, it is not the author's fault. The book is just so badly designed.

                      First glary problem is the index of the book... there isn't any. 200+ pages of technical stuffs, and there is no index. Then there are the tables and pictures. To be specific, there is NO table and RANDOM pictures.
                      Let me explain. When the book reads "...see table in following page for an example of an arrow size selection chart..." you would expect to see a table somewhere. Right? Well, I scanned the next couple of pages (as well as a few preceding pages, just in case) but could not find any tables. Then I scanned the ENTIRE book and could not find the table at all. And this has happened to me on several occasions.
                      Then there are the pictures. First off, no figure/picture numbers (none for the tables either). And the figures lack coherence with the text. Of course when you are reading a chapter about arrow rests, you would expect to see the proper examples next to the text. But in this book, it is as if they RANDOMLY put pictures of arrow rests across the chapter. You would read about drop-away rests, but would see a shoot-though rest picture next to it. And this is consistent through out the book. You read about a riser of a certain brand, but would see the riser of another brand.

                      To be fare, the text itself covers most of the material of an archer's gear. Compound, recurve and longbows are covered, with an exclusive chapter on crossbows. Arrows are well covered, as well as arrow rests, sights, release aids, quivers, stabilizers, and so on...

                      It is a shame that a good text is marred by a poor document design. In fact, the book would have been much less confusing if the pictures and figures were simply removed altogether.

                        4 out of 5 stars Good Overview for the new archer whether target or hunting........1999-01-24

                        As a new entrant to the sport, I found the book to give a comprehensive overview of several aspects of the sport, though it tends to focus more on hunting as opposed to target. It discusses available equipment, (bows, arrows, accessories) as well as some instructions on how to make your own. I'm not ready to cut down a tree and make a bow, but the articles did give me some insight.

                        It was very helpful for me.

                                      4 out of 5 stars Pretty comprehensive.......2007-01-09

                                      This book is useless if you already own "The Master Handbook of Acoustics" by the same author. However as the title suggests it's all about being on a budget, which it explains fairly well. If you are building a projects studio in your house for example..this is a must read.

                                      5 out of 5 stars Too technical for and audio "engineer"?!? LOL.......2006-04-27

                                      This book is an update of Everest's classic "Acoustic Design for Home and Studio". It is great for what it is. For more capable types, Everest's "Master" book is more complete. This one has the basics. For those who thought this is too technical, I wonder how they expect to deal with the other aspects of audio engineering. Just knowing how to twist a knob is not a path to excellence.

                                      In actuality this is a well written, very direct primer, starting with very basic physics, and leading to easy design engineering. It's not hard to calculate, design, finance or construct good acoustics, and the payoff is huge. It does require a modest amount of work, and calculations to get good data. Remember: "Garbage in, garbage out." Acoustics control your recording and playback. This book will give you a fighting chance.

                                      3 out of 5 stars too technical.......2004-09-25

                                      if you are on a financial budget, you are likely on a time budget, and this book can be a time sucker. it reminded my of my high school trigonometry book. I didn't spend much time with that, either. To the defense of the writer, my friends in the business who actually know what they are doing, swear by this guy and his books. I, however, am just trying to make a room in my house sound a little better, and could care less to know about the science behind it any more than I care about the science behind a combustion engine while I'm driving. I recommend 'basic home studio design' by paul white. simple, small, easy, the minimum that you need to know- but as much as i think 90% would need.

                                      2 out of 5 stars WAAAAY TOO TECHNICAL.......2002-07-25

                                      Too much time spent on the mathematics of sound transfer and acoustics. Not enough on how to build the studio. Could not find a "complete parts list" for any of the plans. This is not for someone looking to build a simple studio. Very technical and boring.

                                      4 out of 5 stars great advice, but dont stop here.......2001-11-06

                                      as another reviewer says, this appears to be the previous edition of what is currently titled "how to build a small budget recording studio....". also, as another reviewer has noted, you dont have to read it in order -- each example project its its own chapter with its own self-contained presentation. each example does stress diffferent design goals that translate to different acoustic treatments.

                                      its a little annoying that every page seems to be an advertsemen for an rpg product. this is mitigated by the author's inclusion of journal and patent references that tell you everything you need to know to build these treatments yourself if you like. or if your budget doesnt allow for the beautiful wood forms from rpg, just take the keywords and run -- diffusor, absorber, abfussor -- and its easy to find someone besides rpg that makes the things using less expensive materials.

                                      i enjoyed the book enough that i'm ordering the next edition. i also recommend his book on stereo theory if you want an overview of the psychoacoustics involved.

                                      2 out of 5 stars Should be for construction engineer.......2007-01-15

                                      I thought it was going to cover the entire aspects of the recording studio including the suitable equipments, unfortunately it was just directed toward the construction. I'm not the construction engineer so why would I care too much on the details. I think basic theory on the construction is enough and more elaboration is needed for the furniture and equipment selection.

                                      2 out of 5 stars Not very helpful.......2004-07-14

                                      This book was a big disappointment. I was hoping for detailed instructions for the construction of a studio, and what I got was a refresher course in Acoustics 101. The book has a lot of theory which could be helpful to someone that doesn't already know about diffusion, absorbtion and reflection of sound waves. What it doesn't have is room dimensions, angles of walls, or decent illustrations. The illustration for a garage multi-track studio was literally a line drawing of a square with a bisecting line across the corner signifying what would be a disfunctional control room. If you're not ready to build a studio and want some good information on room modes and acoustics, this is a good enough book. If you want to apply these principles and actually build a studio, there are better instructions on several free websites.

                                      5 out of 5 stars Thank you for your help.......2004-07-07

                                      I used this book as a reference to build a private studio where I record the CDs for my label. It sounds great, reverberation is under control and low, over the whole spectrum. And it cost me HALF of what I'd expect. I used two regular doors instead of a professional grade studio door (I got this money saving idea in this book), I designed my air condinioning using his ideas (it is quiet and has no sound leakage), the cables go into the recording booth using ideas that I found here. The studio has been in operation for four years and everybody loves the sound. I can't praise it enough. My label's web site is outrosdiscos.com.br in case you want to know what was recorded here.

                                      1 out of 5 stars Not helpful at all........2001-10-09

                                      For example, the only help this book give you as far as treating the acoustic of a project studio is to tell you to buy a certain particular brand, RPG, and get 4 of their bass traps, 4 of their absorbant panels and 2 diffusors, and where to place them. No different option is discussed, no alternative....

                                      And when you find out that this option amounts to around $3,000.00, and the author concludes: "this option represents the very minimum defense against the effects of early reflections, the minimum of bass absorption and the minimum of rear-wall diffusion. Much potential improvements remains."....you start wondering about the "budget" he's talking about in the title.

                                      I wish he'd mention the fact that a couch or a love seat make for a great bass trap, that pannels of 703 or 705 fiberglass covered in burlap fabric make much greater absorbants than foam for much cheaper, and that a cluttered shelve makes for a great diffusor....

                                      The rest of the book is filled with mathematical equations and tables and graphs that lack some clear explanations. The book is discouraging at best, boring and not reflective of it's title.

                                      3 out of 5 stars New edition, good!.......2000-04-29

                                      I own a previous edition. I read it very carefully. The book is very useful, if we understand the word. I mean that if you want to build a Recording Studio, fast cheap and easy, read this book. There were serious incongruences in the previous edition I hope to find renewed in this one. For example, the cutoff frequency value, which in the Master Handbook of Acoustics is set to a certain value, in this book has another value! both books have been authored by Mr. Everest. I will try this new edition and more comments will come up. Anyway, buy the book. If you use the recommendations given by Mr. Everest, you will earn money.

                                        5 out of 5 stars A very helpful guide for success.......2006-01-07

                                        I have owned everyone of the Zootycoons and always had trouble with the challenging aspects of the game until I got this guide. It helps a lot with the planning of your zoo, the campign strategies and how to construct a good exhibit. It is very easy to understand and is very helpful if you are new to the zootycoon genre. I highly recommend it.

                                        1 out of 5 stars Not as good as the first Zoo Tycoon 2 Guide.......2007-01-10

                                        This guide is not as good or as helpful as Zoo Tycoon 2: Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets (Paperback) by Michael Rymaszewski. The pictures are blurry and unclear. It goes over all the campaigns for the original Zoo Tycoon 2 and all the expansion pack campaigns. It also includes the photo challenges. But be aware that you get more detailed information in the first guide. I expected a guide with specific information about Marine Mania expansion pack. The description for the Marine Mania guide claims tips on "how to generate cash when you need it most". It claims to give "detailed walkthroughs", but I did not find many tips on generating cash or details for the walkthroughs. It also claims "expert tips on animal behavior to take the guess work out of zookeeping". I thought it would give specific tips on the new animals that come with the Marine Mania Expansion Pack, and I did not find that in this guide. After I read this guide I was very disappointed because I expected a lot more and I paid extra for faster shipping. I recommend Zoo Tycoon 2: Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets (Paperback) by Michael Rymaszewski. I would not recommend Zoo Tycoon 2: Marine Mania (Exp Pak 1) (Prima Official Game Guide) by Mark Cohen.

                                        1 out of 5 stars Not worth the money or up to Zoo 2 Standards.......2007-01-04

                                        After waiting excitedly for this guide release (which was a month late), I was very disappointed with its content. Unlike Zoo Tycoon 2's original Prima guide, which was awesome and contained lots and lots of useful strategies and tips, this strategy guide is mostly screenshots. The text that is included is mostly just verbatum quotes from the game itself. For example, under the "challenge" explanations, it mostly explains the challenge goals... exactly the same as the game does. What's the point?

                                        The book advertises lots of "ways to make more money," however, if there is this information in the guide, I've yet to find it... there is no chapter or specific area that addresses this.

                                        I am a HUGE Zoo Tycoon fan. I love it. This guide, however, is a waste of money and a big disappointment.
