Jam-packed with the latest reference data, device diagrams, standards and terminology, the Audio Engineer's Field Manual follows the structure Whitaker established in the Video and Television Engineer's Field Manual. There are two basic chapters providing a basic tutorial of the field and a context for the reference material to follow, a massive section (the bulk of the book) given over to pure reference data - organized carefully by topic and usage, a complete audio technology dictionary, and finally an exhaustive listing and referencing of all major standards and protocols.
