Pro Tools - answers 100% correct✔✔ A multi-track
software-based digital recording and editing system
Audio - answers 100% correct✔✔ Sound, especially
when recorded, transmitted or reproduced
,MIDI - answers 100% correct✔✔ Musical Instrument
Digital Interface
Mixing - answers 100% correct✔✔ The process of
blending all the individual tracks in a recording to create a
version of the song that sounds as good as possible
Post Production - answers 100% correct✔✔ Work
done on a recording after a recording has taken place
TDM - answers 100% correct✔✔ Time Division
Multiplexing - routes multiple streams of digital audio data
between system components
Host-based audio processing - answers 100%
correct✔✔ Processing done on the computer's CPU
without the need for additional DSP cards. Computer's
processing ability.
D-Control Work Surface - answers 100% correct✔✔
Up to 80 faders
D-Command Work Surface - answers 100%
correct✔✔ Up to 40 faders
,Sound - answers 100% correct✔✔ A variation in the
air pressure around us. The result of changes caused by
vibrations that create disturbances in the air or water
around the source.
Waveform - answers 100% correct✔✔ The "shape" of
the sound or the shape of the vibration that produced the
sound
Range of human hearing - answers 100% correct✔✔
20Hz to 20,000Hz
Frequency - answers 100% correct✔✔ How often the
sound pressure variates. Measured in Hertz or CPS
(cycles per second). Creates our perception of pitch.
Measurement of the regularly repeating sine wave.
Measured from peak to peak. The number of times a
sound wave repeats itself in one second, moving from the
midpoint of the waveform where the sound begins through
the crest of the wave, where the pressure is greatest,
through the midpoint again, to the trough of the wave,
where the pressure is the lightest, and back to the
midpoint.
Amplitude - answers 100% correct✔✔ Intensity of the
sound pressure variations. Creates our perception of the
, loudness of the sound. Measured in decibels (dB). The
measurement of how far vibration of molecules of air
travels; the distance traveled from the mid point.
measured on the vertical plane of the sine wave.
Translated as volume or loudness.
Decibel - answers 100% correct✔✔ A logarithmic unit
that is used to describe a ratio of sound pressure.
Measure for amplitude. One-tenth of a Bel. (Alexander
Graham Bell measurement)
Threshold of hearing - answers 100% correct✔✔ 0dB
Threshold of pain - answers 100% correct✔✔ 120dB
Analog Audio - answers 100% correct✔✔ The
continuous electric signal produced by a microphone is an
alternating current with a waveform, frequency and
amplitude that directly corresponds to or is analogous to
the original acoustic information.
Analog-to-digital conversion (A/D Conversion) - answers
100% correct✔✔ The process of translating electrical
signals to binary data.
Two essential factors: sample rate and bit depth
