Bibliography Index
Лень взяла переводить на русский аннотацию для рутрекера, решил попробовать яндекс.переводчиком. Своеобразная штука...
Название переведено корректно, никаких тебе "Дизайн интерьеров ламповых предусилителей", уже радость. Первый абзац - вполне сойдёт, хотя я всё ж исправил окончание: "...ламповых предусилителей для музыкальных инструментов, собранное в одном томе."
А вот второй абзац забавно: "компьютер" не понял начала фразы и попросту пропустил его! А дальше "с разбегу" сел в лужу на словосочетании design of every part - тут тебе и дизайн, и "деталь". Здесь же мы резисторы/конденсаторы/лампы не разрабатываем, их мы берём "с полки", так что part - более крупное деление, типа "входной каскад / регулятор тембра / фазоинвертор", лучше "часть" а не "деталь". Loop вообще не переведён, "а зачем". Я слышал слово "лупер", это педалька, которая запоминает один кусочек и его воспроизводит снова и снова (и "залупить", т.е переусердствовать с этой педалькой, напрочь запоров свою композицию), но здесь всё же правильный перевод: петля (вывел наружу, пропустил через педальку и пустил назад), а то и просто "подключение педалек эффектов".
В общем, предложение пришлось почти целиком самому написать, кривовато, но уже ближе: От входных цепей до фазоинвертора, в этой книге подробно рассматривается внутренняя работа и схемотехника каждой части обычного гитарного предусилителя, включая использование триодов, пентодов, регуляторов тембра, подключение педалей эффектов и многого другого.
В третьем абзаце "переводчик" не понял что it - это книга (и должна переводиться как "она"), ну и perfomance здесь как "производительность" - такое себе. Тоже наскоро поправил: "Предназначенная для любителей среднего уровня и схемотехников, эта книга расскажет, как управлять искажениями и максимизировать характеристики для получения идеального тона."
Можно и получше, но начинаю ловить себя на мысли: а нахрена? Многие новости уже бессмысленно переводить как-то иначе, поскольку и журналисты, их пишущие, уже не особо заморачиваются...
