1
In a filter, the cutoff frequency is:
The frequency at which the slope of the cutoff ends
The frequency at which the slope of the cutoff begins
The frequency reached when the knob is turned all the way clockwise
The frequency reached when the knob is turned all the way counterclockwise
2
What are the 4 basic sections of a subtractive synthesizer?
Wavetable, Envelope, LFO, Filter

Wavetable, Preset, Filter, Effect
3
In a combinator, we can only add 1 effect per device. True or false?
True
False
4
A very slow attack and release on the Amp Envelope is good to create:
organ sounds
lead sounds
pad sounds
bass sounds
5
In Subtractive Synthesis, what are we "subtracting"?
Frequencies
Filters
Oscillators
Envelopes
6
The _____ controls the volume of the sound over time.
Modulation Envelope
Filter Envelope
Amplitude Envelope
7
In order to see the devices inside of Reason's Combinator, we need to press the button labeled:
Show Settings
Show Devices
Show Interface
Show Routing
8
There are ____ semitones in an octave.
100
24
12
8
9
What type of synthesis are you using if you start with a very rich sound and carve things aways from it to get the sound you want.
FM
Subtractive
Granular Synthesis
Additive
10
Basically, Maelström's Mod A and Mod B sections are:
Filters
LFOs
Modulation effects (Chorus, Flanger or Phaser)
Envelopes
11
In Reason's Malström, Mod A and Mod B can be applied in three ways: To Oscillator one, oscillator two, and both oscillators at the same time. True or false?
False
True
12
In FM Synthesis, we need two signals. A Carrier signal, and a _______ signal.
Modifier
Modulator
Multiplier
Manipulator
13
The button we press to reveal the "guts" of Thor is:
Show Devices
Show Programmer
Show Settings
Show Interface
14
In Reason's Malström, when we don't select any of the boxes from routing the signal, where does the sound go?
Nowhere-it does not output
Immediately to the Shaper
Immediately to the Filter
Immediately to the output
15
LFO stands for...
Low Frequency Oscillator
Loop Feedback Oscillator
Long Frequency Output
Loud Filter Output
16
To get to the back of a Reason device, in order to see the routing and cabling, we use the ______ keyboard shortcut.
Shift-Enter
Tab
Shift-Tab
Enter
17
In Graintable Synthesis, a "grain" is:
a point at which a filter slopes down
a seed from which a sound sample grows
an index point
a tiny slice of audio
18
If you want to hear both oscillators in Subtractor, you should leave the Mix knob all the way on the right. True or false?
False
True
19
What are the four most standard waveforms?
Rectangle, Triangle, Circle, Square
Sine, Rectangle, Square, Sawtooth
Sine, Triangle, Square, Rectangle
Sine, Triangle, Square, Sawtooth
20
We start Thor's pattern sequencer by pressing the Run button, with one of three settings: Repeat, 1-Shot, or Step. What does the 1-shot setting do?
Plays the pattern one time through, then stops
Waits for the next Run button to be pressed
Plays the next beat of the pattern, then stops
Plays the next step in the pattern sequencer, then stops
21
Which type of filter will attenuate high frequencies?
High Pass
Notch
Low Pass
All answers are correct
22
The Modulation Matrix in Thor will let you modulation nearly anything with ______ .
the amplitude envelope
nearly anything
velocity
the modulation envelope
23
For a typical Lead sound, we want the attack on the amplitude envelope to be slow. True or false?
True
False
24
Timbre is:
the basic frequency of a sound
the frequency of a sound and its resulting overtones
the color of a sound
the distance between the lowest and highest notes
25
In Reason's Malström, when we turn the Motion knob to the left, we are:
lowering the pitch of the audio file
slowing down the rate the at which the synth will advance through the grains
slowing the rate of the modulation
slowing down the audio file
