1
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
2
Feedback can be used for...
repeating echo effects
after-the-fact pitch correction
removing clipping from an already-recorded track
3
Buss processing refers to...
processing used on the way in while recording
processing used on individual tracks in a mix
effects added to the LR stereo master channel strip
4
Delay-based echo effects...
utilize delay times above 30-50 milliseconds
utilize delay times within the Haas Eeffect's Fusion Zone
utilize delay times below 30-50 milliseconds
5
A 4-pole filter has a slope of...
6 dB/octave
24 dB/octave
12 dB/octave
6
DDL stands for...
Digital Delay Line
Drop-Down Limiter
Dynamic Digital Limiter
7
A classic example of an opto compressor is...
the Urei 1176
the dbx 160
the Teletronix LA-2A
8
Linear-phase processing...
usually adds significant latency
is a zero-latency effect
is never appropriate for mastering
9
Where is a brickwall limiter usually set when mastering?
-3 dB
0 dB
-1 dB
-0.3dB
10
A Compressor...
increases dynamic range
reduces dynamic range
speeds up recorded audio without changing the pitch
11
In mixing distortion is...
sometimes useful as a warming effect in small amounts
only useful in heavy metal and nu-metal musical genres
never useful and should always be avoided
12
Dynamics processing includes...
compression/limiting & expansion/gating
modulation & feedback
parametric processing & octave-band processing
13
Delay times for Chorusing are typically...
under 10 milliseconds
over 50 milliseconds
between around 15-25 milliseconds
14
An Algorithmic 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
15
True or False: all compressors have Attack & Release controls.
False
True
16
Bi-amped studio monitors...
use a single mono amp for both speakers
have separate amps for the left & right speakers
have separate amps for the woofer & tweeter
17
In a delay effect Modulation...
varies the manually-set delay time
adds resonance to the signal
increases the amount of feedback
18
A VCA compressor...
uses a varible-bias tube
uses a light & a photoresistor
uses a voltage-controlled amplifier
19
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
20
In a compressor Make-up gain...
compensates for out-of-tune notes in a vocal
restores level after gain-reduction has been applied
automatically matches the level of other tracks in the mix
21
A studio's Reverb Chamber is...
a mechanical device with a metal sheet
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
a dedicated reflective room
22
A Brickwall limiter...
should be used on every track in a mix
sets an absolute maximum signal level
sharply attenuates everything above a certain frequency
23
Digital clipping...
is usually less harsh than analog clipping
increases gradually as levels approach maximum
is usually harsher than analog clipping
24
A Plate reverb is...
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
a dedicated reflective room
a mechanical device with a metal sheet
25
Loudness Maximzing is...
the practice of pumping up the bass for a louder-sounding mix
the practice of limitng transients to achieve higher average levels
the practice of boosting highs for a louder-sounding mix
