i have bob katz' book.. and was excited to read it... but after i 
finished i came out feeling he was a total pompous ass and he 
basically made the point that if you don't have total highest end of 
everything in your studio then your setup was shit.

the book is NOT written for a newcomer to learn, it's written to 
massage the egos of mastering engineers.

however, i DID come out with one new practice.. which is that i 
switched all of my recording to 24 bit.. and will probably go to 
96khz soon...

i don't NOT recommend the book.. i just think it's written from a 
very pompous angle.. so read with that in mind...
