Platinum Engineers Reveal their secrets?
I am very disappointed with the book.

The book on the cover claimed: "Mix Masters Platinum Engineers Reveal Their Secrets for Success" but all we got was biographies and list of equipment they use with 1176 popping up almost on every other page.

The question "How much can you normally get done in a day" just was the nail to the coffin.

I read the book and I have not learned anything from it. If you are really bored on Winter night when there is a blizzard outside you can read it but I rather suggest you go to your studio and work on your music.

The book is also pretty outdated, lots of stories about mixing on analog or digital tape.

Solidly revised and updated new addition is needed from the author.
