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
4
A compressor's Ratio...
determines the level above which gain-reduction kicks in
determines the frequencies that are subject to gain-reduction
determines the amount of gain-reduction applied
5
Mic preamps all provide...
onboard EQ & delay-based effects
enough gain for line-level devices
gain & the correct impedance for microphones
6
Filter resonance is...
a wide boost centered at around 1 kHz
a deep notch within a narrow frequency range
a narrow boost just before the cutoff frequency
7
Mastering most commonly involves...
EQ, compression, and limiting
reverb, echo & saturation
pitch & time shifting
8
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
9
True or False: all compressors have Attack & Release controls.
False
True
10
Audio applications for transformers include...
converting analog signal to digital
changing volatge levels & matching impedances
converting Audio recordings to MIDI
11
A high-frequency shelving EQ band (shelf)...
boosts or cuts all frequencies above a corner frequency
boosts or cuts all frequencies around a center frequency
boosts or cuts all frequencies below a corner frequency
12
The three controls for each band of a parametric EQ are...
gain, center frequency, & Q
lowpass highpass, & notch
gain, boost, & cut
13
When Threshold is crossed a soft-knee response...
has a gradual onset of gain-reduction
has an immediate onset of gain-reduction
applies more gain reduction to high frequencies
14
Buss processing refers to...
processing used on the way in while recording
effects added to the LR stereo master channel strip
processing used on individual tracks in a mix
15
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
16
A lowpass filter...
passes everything above a cutoff frequency
attenuates everything below a cutoff frequency
attenuates everything above a cutoff frequency
17
When the tops & bottoms of a wave are clipped, the result is...
noise gating

amplitude modulation
18
Delay times for Flanging are typically...
over 30 milliseconds
over 50 milliseconds
under 10 milliseconds
19
In a delay effect Modulation...
increases the amount of feedback
adds resonance to the signal
varies the manually-set delay time
20
A FET compressor...
usually has a fast, aggressive response characteristic
usually has a very slow, subtle response characteristic
uses a special tube with variable bias
21
The goal of de-essing is to...
remove excessive sibilance in a vocal track
apply pitch-shifting to simplify melodies that are too busy
attenuate the level of background music when a voiceover comes along
22
An IR is...
an Impulse Response, the real room sample used in a convolution reverb

a dedicated reflective room
24
True Peak metering...
shows the average signal level of a mix
estimates inter-sample peaks
isolates the loudest frequency in a mix
25
