  These inside secrets can be applied to real world scenarios - whether it's in audio production, electronic music production, mixing, editing, mastering, or sound for media. They even work for schools, colleges, and universities.   
   
  In this book, you will discover: 
   
  Everything you need to know about advanced audio, recording, and music production in 2020 and beyond

  Chanted Torah The: Bereshit

  This audiobook will never get old.
   
  Over the centuries and across the world, Jewish communities have formed their own melodies, styles, and traditions in their recitations of the Torah. Even today, a reading in Cleveland will be different than one in London, or Toronto, Buenos Aires, Lviv, or Tel Aviv. Many of these traditions have no doubt been lost to displacement and time. Prior to the 20th century, we didn’t possess the ability to capture these traditions other than in written facsimile. But now, in 2023, we hardly have any excuses.
   
  And although the text is set in stone, the way we interact with it is ever changing and unique to our individual experiences.
   
  Therefore, I’ve produced this book with two specific goals in mind. First, to be as accessible to as many audiences as possible. Not only in distribution, but also in its usefulness in as many different settings as possible. I’ve taken every effort to ensure that this aural Torah is spoken with accurate pronunciations, emphasis, and trope. My hope is for this to be useful for cantors and rabbis, teachers and b’nai mitzvahs, congregations, meditations, Jews and non-Jews.
   
  Second, to capture the sound of the American Jewish diaspora. As an American Conservative Jew, I want this to be authentic, something you would expect to hear in any conservative, reform, or reconstructionist synagogue in the US on a Saturday morning. While I believe our Jewish heritage will continue to flourish and grow for many years, a project like this will be one way to preserve our own traditions, l'dor va dor.
   
  TheChantedTorah is a project in collaboration with the Cantors Assembly.

  Monumental Controversies - Mount...

  Harriet F. Senie

  In recent years the United States has witnessed major controversies surrounding past American presidents, monuments, and sites. Consider Mount Rushmore, which features the heads of the nation’s most revered presidents—George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt. Is Rushmore a proud national achievement or a symbol of the US theft and desecration of the Lakota Sioux’s sacred land? 
  Is it fair to denigrate George Washington for having owned slaves and Thomas Jefferson for having had a relationship with Sally Hemings, an enslaved woman, to the point of dismissing these men’s accomplishments? 
  Should we retroactively hold Abraham Lincoln accountable for having signed off on the largest single-day mass execution in US history of thirty-eight Dakota men? 
  How do we reckon with Theodore Roosevelt’s legacy? He was criticized for his imperialist policies but praised for his pro-labor antitrust and conservation programs. 
  These charged issues and many others have been plaguing our nation and prompting the removal of Confederate statues and flags amid racial unrest, a national pandemic, and political strife. 
  Noted art historian Harriet F. Senie tackles these pivotal subjects and more in Monumental Controversies. Senie places partisan politics aside as she investigates subjects that have not been adequately covered in classrooms or literature and require substantial reconciliation in order for Americans to come to terms with their history. She shines a spotlight on the complicated facts surrounding these figures, monuments, and sites, enabling us to revisit the flaws of our Founding Fathers and their checkered legacies while still recognizing their enormous importance and influence on the United States of America. 
  Monumental Controversies presents strategies to create an inclusive narrative that honors the varied stakeholders in a democracy—a vital step toward healing the divisiveness that now appears to be a dominant feature of American discourse. 
  As the public and press reconsider the viability of the American experiment in democracy, Senie offers a thoughtful reflection on the complex lives and legacies of the four presidents memorialized on Mount Rushmore. All four presidents faced some of the most contentious times in our history and yet they championed unity, made possible by acknowledging and accepting opposing opinions as a basic premise of democracy. 
  Historians, curators, government officials, academics, and students at all levels will be riveted by this authoritative work.

  First Among Equals - US Foreign...

  A fresh, concise roadmap for United States grand strategy in a multipolar world For the past thirty years, post–Cold War triumphalism and a desire to reshape the world have defined United States foreign policy. But the failures of the global war on terror, the return of conflict to Europe, and growing tensions with China all suggest that this approach to the world is flawed. For the United States—the country that has ruled the international system largely alone since 1991—this moment is particularly perilous. Can policymakers adapt American foreign policy to better fit the twenty-first century, and in doing so avoid the pitfalls and excesses of the past three decades? In this book, Emma Ashford proposes a return to a more pragmatic, realist set of strategic principles, ones better suited for the emerging multipolar world, that would pursue narrower United States interests, cultivate the capabilities of friendly states, and emphasize room for maneuver over rigid alliances. In this she provides a valuable counterpoint to today's liberal internationalist consensus, as well as a road map for policymakers who seek to change the course of United States foreign policy.

  "You Just Freestyled!" - Vol 1...

  This book primarily focuses on freestyle as it applies to rap. But the principles in & of themselves are universal I believe. Often after we master or even become proficient at a skill. We apply it without thinking, we “freestyle it”. These are my opinions. I’ve been freestyling professionally for 10 years, been featured on news outlets & in documentaries. This is a brief reflection on some things I’ve noticed, and what I’ve gleaned learning from others. You may find the path to your goals a different way, nothing here is concrete take what works for you. Thanks for considering what is written here :)
