False
True
10
Timbre is:
the distance between the lowest and highest notes
the frequency of a sound and its resulting overtones
the color of a sound
the basic frequency of a sound
11
In Graintable Synthesis, a "grain" is:
a tiny slice of audio

All answers are correct
Low Pass
Notch
18
In a combinator, we can only add 1 effect per device. True or false?

Amplitude (volume)
20
The Modulation Matrix in Thor will let you modulation nearly anything with ______ .

the modulation envelope
21
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.
Subtractive
Additive
Granular Synthesis
FM
22
In Subtractor, the velocity can only control the volume. True or false?
True
False
23
In Reason's Malström, when we turn the Motion knob to the left, we are:
slowing down the rate the at which the synth will advance through the grains
slowing the rate of the modulation
lowering the pitch of the audio file
slowing down the audio file
24
For a typical Lead sound, we want the attack on the amplitude envelope to be slow. True or false?
True
False
25
