1
In parallel compression...
two compressors are used one after the other for a more subtle compression characteristic
a copy of the signal is compressed & mixed with the uncompressed version
all controls are set to the same value
2
Tape Saturation adds...
a subtle reverb-like effect
a doubling effect in large amounts
subtle distortion and compression
3
A Multiband compresor...
compresses different frequency ranges independently
is specifically intended for multitrack drum recordings
must be instantiated on several individual tracks, all linked together
4
The goal of de-essing is to...
remove excessive sibilance in a vocal track
attenuate the level of background music when a voiceover comes along
apply pitch-shifting to simplify melodies that are too busy
5
A Brickwall limiter...
sets an absolute maximum signal level
should be used on every track in a mix
sharply attenuates everything above a certain frequency
6
Rt60 refes to...
the initial delay time in a reverberant sound field (in milliseconds)
the length (decay time) of a reverb tail
the average cost of a digital reverb plug-in
the name of a famous delay unit
7
A VCA compressor...
uses a varible-bias tube
uses a light & a photoresistor
uses a voltage-controlled amplifier
8
Linear-phase processing...
usually adds significant latency
is never appropriate for mastering
is a zero-latency effect
9
Feedback can be used for...
removing clipping from an already-recorded track
after-the-fact pitch correction
repeating echo effects
10
In mixing distortion is...
sometimes useful as a warming effect in small amounts
only useful in heavy metal and nu-metal musical genres
never useful and should always be avoided
11
A high-frequency shelving EQ band (shelf)...
boosts or cuts all frequencies below a corner frequency
boosts or cuts all frequencies around a center frequency
boosts or cuts all frequencies above a corner frequency
12
A parametric EQ's "Q" controls...
set the center frequency of each band
determine the range of boost & cut for each band
adjusts the bandwidth of each band
13
Mic preamps all provide...
enough gain for line-level devices
gain & the correct impedance for microphones
onboard EQ & delay-based effects
14
Another name for a tube is...
a valve
a transformer
an FET
15
Delay-based echo effects...
utilize delay times above 30-50 milliseconds
utilize delay times below 30-50 milliseconds
utilize delay times within the Haas Eeffect's Fusion Zone
16
Filter resonance is...
a deep notch within a narrow frequency range
a wide boost centered at around 1 kHz
a narrow boost just before the cutoff frequency
17
An Algorithmic reverb creates reverberation...
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
by accumulating digital delays
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
18
ADT stands for...
Active Dynamic Tracking
Audio Dynamic Threshold
Artifical Double-Tracking
19
A FET compressor...
uses a special tube with variable bias
usually has a very slow, subtle response characteristic
usually has a fast, aggressive response characteristic
20
Where is a brickwall limiter usually set when mastering?
-1 dB
0 dB
-3 dB
-0.3dB
21
The function of ducking is to...
attenuate the level of background music when a voiceover comes along
remove excessive sibilance in a vocal track
attenuate notes that fall outside the song's home key
22
Loudness Maximzing is...
the practice of limitng transients to achieve higher average levels
the practice of boosting highs for a louder-sounding mix
the practice of pumping up the bass for a louder-sounding mix
23
Bi-amped studio monitors...
have separate amps for the left & right speakers
have separate amps for the woofer & tweeter
use a single mono amp for both speakers
24
A Convolution reverb creates reverberation...
by accumulating digital delays
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
25
The three controls for each band of a parametric EQ are...
gain, center frequency, & Q
lowpass highpass, & notch
gain, boost, & cut
