1
Feedback can be used for...
after-the-fact pitch correction
removing clipping from an already-recorded track
repeating echo effects
2
A Limiter...
is a compressor with a Ratio of 10:1–20:1 or higher
auto-corrects pitches above & below a user-specified range
corrects tempo variations above a user-specified bpm
3
In parallel compression...
a copy of the signal is compressed & mixed with the uncompressed version
two compressors are used one after the other for a more subtle compression characteristic
all controls are set to the same value
4
Digital clipping...
increases gradually as levels approach maximum
is usually less harsh than analog clipping
is usually harsher than analog clipping
5
Delay times for Chorusing are typically...
between around 15-25 milliseconds
under 10 milliseconds
over 50 milliseconds
6
A Convolution reverb creates reverberation...
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
by accumulating digital delays
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
7
A Brickwall limiter...
sharply attenuates everything above a certain frequency
sets an absolute maximum signal level
should be used on every track in a mix
8
Where is a brickwall limiter usually set when mastering?
-0.3dB
-3 dB
0 dB
-1 dB
9
Rt60 refes to...
the average cost of a digital reverb plug-in
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
10
Spectral Processing
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
uses Fourier analysis to identify & isolate individual elements embedded in an audio recording
a dedicated reflective room
11
The main function of Audio Repair software is...
to quantizes the timing of drums within a stereo mix
to fix common audio problems like background noise, leakage, & clipped audio
to auto-correct the pitch of vocals within a stereo mix
12
A noise gate...
removes bakground sound (like leakage) inbetween words & phrases
removes bakground sound (like leakage) present at the same time as the main part
attenuates pitchy notes in a vocal track
13
A FET compressor...
usually has a very slow, subtle response characteristic
usually has a fast, aggressive response characteristic
uses a special tube with variable bias
14
Bi-amped studio monitors...
have separate amps for the woofer & tweeter
use a single mono amp for both speakers
have separate amps for the left & right speakers
15
An Algorithmic reverb creates reverberation...
by accumulating digital delays
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
16
A 4-pole filter has a slope of...
12 dB/octave
24 dB/octave
6 dB/octave
17
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
18
In a compressor Make-up gain...
compensates for out-of-tune notes in a vocal
automatically matches the level of other tracks in the mix
restores level after gain-reduction has been applied
19
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
20
A lowpass filter...
passes everything above a cutoff frequency
attenuates everything above a cutoff frequency
attenuates everything below a cutoff frequency
21
Delay times for Flanging are typically...
over 50 milliseconds
under 10 milliseconds
over 30 milliseconds
22
True Peak metering...
estimates inter-sample peaks
isolates the loudest frequency in a mix
shows the average signal level of a mix
23
True or False: all compressors have Attack & Release controls.
True
False
24
The three controls for each band of a parametric EQ are...
gain, boost, & cut
gain, center frequency, & Q
lowpass highpass, & notch
25
The Loudness War refers to...
the common industry practice of trying to make the drums louder than everything else in a mix
the common industry practice of trying to make the vocals louder than everything else in a mix
the common industry practice of trying to make a mix as loud or louder than every other mix
