a specialized tube with variable bias
2
Delay times for Flanging are typically...
over 50 milliseconds
over 30 milliseconds
under 10 milliseconds
3
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
4
In a delay effect Modulation...
adds resonance to the signal
increases the amount of feedback
varies the manually-set delay time
5
Digital clipping...
increases gradually as levels approach maximum
is usually less harsh than analog clipping
is usually harsher than analog clipping
6
Tape Saturation adds...
a doubling effect in large amounts
a subtle reverb-like effect
subtle distortion and compression
7
Another name for a tube is...
a valve
a transformer
an FET
8
In parallel compression...
two compressors are used one after the other for a more subtle compression characteristic
all controls are set to the same value
a copy of the signal is compressed & mixed with the uncompressed version
9
A Plate reverb is...
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
a dedicated reflective room
a mechanical device with a metal sheet
10
Audio applications for transformers include...
converting Audio recordings to MIDI
converting analog signal to digital
changing volatge levels & matching impedances
11
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
12
The main function of Audio Repair software is...
to quantizes the timing of drums within a stereo mix
to auto-correct the pitch of vocals within a stereo mix
to fix common audio problems like background noise, leakage, & clipped audio
13
In mixing distortion is...
sometimes useful as a warming effect in small amounts
never useful and should always be avoided
only useful in heavy metal and nu-metal musical genres
14
Bi-amped studio monitors...
have separate amps for the left & right speakers
use a single mono amp for both speakers
have separate amps for the woofer & tweeter
15
The three controls for each band of a parametric EQ are...
gain, boost, & cut
lowpass highpass, & notch
gain, center frequency, & Q
16
Rt60 refes to...
the name of a famous delay unit
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
17
When the tops & bottoms of a wave are clipped, the result is...
amplitude modulation
noise gating
harmonic distortion
18
Spectral Processing
uses Fourier analysis to identify & isolate individual elements embedded in an audio recording
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
a dedicated reflective room
19
Dynamics processing includes...
modulation & feedback
parametric processing & octave-band processing
compression/limiting & expansion/gating
20
The goal of de-essing is to...
apply pitch-shifting to simplify melodies that are too busy
attenuate the level of background music when a voiceover comes along
remove excessive sibilance in a vocal track
21
An Algorithmic reverb creates reverberation...
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
by accumulating digital delays
22
A Convolution reverb creates reverberation...
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
by accumulating digital delays
23
Feedback can be used for...
after-the-fact pitch correction
repeating echo effects
removing clipping from an already-recorded track
24
A Limiter...
corrects tempo variations above a user-specified bpm
auto-corrects pitches above & below a user-specified range
is a compressor with a Ratio of 10:1–20:1 or higher
25
A program-dependent compressor...
works only on certain user-selected musical styles
has variable time constants
is the only kind that can be automated
