  • “In an industry that expects a polished radio/record-ready product, Shane discusses the subjects and give you the tools to get your music to the highest level.” – Johnny Rabb, Drummer: Collective Soul; Owner and Product Developer at Johnny Rabb Drumsticks
  • “Recording music at home doesn't have to be rocket science, although sometimes it can seem that way. At the very root of all music recording, it has to be fun. You need to enjoy what you're doing, see results as you go, and eliminate as much frustration in the process as you can. That's what Shane helps you do, in this book. He breaks recording down in terms one can understand and simplifies the process so you can feel confident in creating your own great-quality home recordings.” – Keifer Thompson, GRAMMY® nominated songwriter. Member of award-winning country music duo, Thompson Square
  • “At last, a comprehensive yet simple guide to recording my songs, so I can take them to the next level. The best part is, it doesn't sidetrack me from my main focus – writing a great song. Thank you!” – Jerry Vandiver, Songwriter on over 15 million records including Tim McGraw, Phil Vassar, Lonestar, Barbara Mandrell, Lee Greenwood, and the Oak Ridge Boys
  • “An an artist, too often I find the 'how to do something' getting in the way of creating. This is especially true as I move from writing a song to the important step of producing and recording it. In those moments, I go from inspired to feeling lost, unable to navigate the complex route from idea to final product. For years, I longed for a gentle, confident voice to guide me on the path most suited to my style of song creation. Shane Adams is that wise voice – truly an Obi-Wan of music production.” – Bruce Vaughn, Chief Creative Executive at Walt Disney Imagineering
