i have a subscription to this magazine and its AWESOME.

the best free recording magazine you can get ( even better than one you have to pay for ) So i recommend this and the magazines to anyone who is into recording.

The best recording magazine ever. This is a collection pulled from the earlier issues. Great interviews, techniques and recording talk. If you are into recording at all and don't know about TapeOp, get on it now.

Το διάβασα και το απόλαυσα. Μια γενική ιδέα της κουλτούρας και υπο-κουλτούρας του ήχου. Η ζωή των "αλλόκοτων" για αρκετούς, μουσικών παραγωγών και ηχοληπτών μαζι με μια πληθώρα απο old-school tips and tricks για μείξη και ηχογράφηση.

[Kevin Fowler]

If you're into music recording, this book (and the second volume) are indispensable. Tons of fantastic interviews and some interesting projects and ideas. Way fucking better than 'Recording' magazine by ten miles.

[Ryan]

Great interviews with indie rock icons. Tricks of the trade for the small home studio owner.

danger: this book will make you buy a cassette 4-track. If you already have one, it might make you record pavement and my bloody valentine covers into it for 3 or 4 nights in a row.
