1
Tape Saturation adds...
a subtle reverb-like effect
a doubling effect in large amounts
subtle distortion and compression
2
A Plate reverb is...
a mechanical device with a metal sheet
a dedicated reflective room
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
3
A Multiband compresor...
is specifically intended for multitrack drum recordings
must be instantiated on several individual tracks, all linked together
compresses different frequency ranges independently
4
When the tops & bottoms of a wave are clipped, the result is...
amplitude modulation
harmonic distortion
noise gating
5
True or False: all compressors have Attack & Release controls.
True
False
6
A 4-pole filter has a slope of...
6 dB/octave
12 dB/octave
24 dB/octave
7
Linear-phase processing...
usually adds significant latency
is a zero-latency effect
is never appropriate for mastering
8
Mic preamps all provide...
onboard EQ & delay-based effects
enough gain for line-level devices
gain & the correct impedance for microphones
9
Loudness Maximzing is...
the practice of limitng transients to achieve higher average levels
the practice of pumping up the bass for a louder-sounding mix
the practice of boosting highs for a louder-sounding mix
10
Feedback can be used for...
removing clipping from an already-recorded track
after-the-fact pitch correction
repeating echo effects
11
An IR is...
an Impulse Response, the real room sample used in a convolution reverb
an Infinite Reverb, a type of special-effect reverb plug-in
an Internal Reverb, a reverb effect built in to a DAW
12
Audio applications for transformers include...
changing volatge levels & matching impedances
converting Audio recordings to MIDI
converting analog signal to digital
13
Mastering most commonly involves...
reverb, echo & saturation
pitch & time shifting
EQ, compression, and limiting
14
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
15
In mixing distortion is...
only useful in heavy metal and nu-metal musical genres
sometimes useful as a warming effect in small amounts
never useful and should always be avoided
16
Rt60 refes to...
the average cost of a digital reverb plug-in
the initial delay time in a reverberant sound field (in milliseconds)
the length (decay time) of a reverb tail
the name of a famous delay unit
17
Where is a brickwall limiter usually set when mastering?
-3 dB
-1 dB
-0.3dB
0 dB
18
A Convolution reverb creates reverberation...
by accumulating digital delays
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
19
Delay-based echo effects...
utilize delay times within the Haas Eeffect's Fusion Zone
utilize delay times above 30-50 milliseconds
utilize delay times below 30-50 milliseconds
20
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
21
A program-dependent compressor...
is the only kind that can be automated
works only on certain user-selected musical styles
has variable time constants
22
When Threshold is crossed a soft-knee response...
applies more gain reduction to high frequencies
has a gradual onset of gain-reduction
has an immediate onset of gain-reduction
23
Spectral Processing
a dedicated reflective room
uses Fourier analysis to identify & isolate individual elements embedded in an audio recording
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
24
Digital clipping...
is usually less harsh than analog clipping
increases gradually as levels approach maximum
is usually harsher than analog clipping
25
Bi-amped studio monitors...
have separate amps for the woofer & tweeter
have separate amps for the left & right speakers
use a single mono amp for both speakers
