Correct Answers/ Latest Update /

what is the control room?
Ans: A room where an engineers tools are kept, this includes but is not
limited to the console or control surface, outboard gear, the patchbay,
multitrack machines, or computer systems, studio monitors power amps.
This room is acoustically isolated from other parts of the studio and outside
surrounding areas.
What is a console?
Ans: The patchbay is what allows the engineer to connect inputs and
outputs of the gear in the studio and control room, all at one convenient
location.
What is Multitrack Recorder
,2 | Page
Ans: a recording machine that allows for the separate recording of
multiple sound sources or of sound sources recorded at different times to
create a cohesive whole
what is mixing?
Ans: Mixing involves combining all the sounds received from the multitrack
recording and adjusts levels, panning, and adds effects (both time-based
and dynamic effects).
What is the mix down recorder?
Ans: The MDR is used to record the final stereo mix that will then be sent to
the mastering engineer.
What is the term for a device that will change one form of energy to
another corresponding form of energy?
Ans: A transducer

The three electrical levels are?
Ans: Mic level (1/1000 millivolts), line level(1.23v), speaker level()1-50v)
The three MAIN steps to the multitrack recording process are: 1)
Recording 2) Overdubbing 3) Mixing. (True or False)
Ans: True
Phase
Ans: A time relationship between two or more waveforms
Waveform
Ans: is the graphic representation of a sound pressure level or voltage
level as it moves through a medium.
Sound Pressure Level (SPL)
Ans: are variations in atmospheric pressure
