1
ADSR stands for:

Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release,
Amplitude, Damping, Sustain, Resonance
Always Decide to Support Reason
2
In order to see the devices inside of Reason's Combinator, we need to press the button labeled:
Show Routing
Show Interface
Show Settings
Show Devices
3
Basically, Maelström's Mod A and Mod B sections are:
Envelopes
Modulation effects (Chorus, Flanger or Phaser)
Filters
LFOs
4
For a typical Lead sound, we want the attack on the amplitude envelope to be slow. True or false?
True
False
5
In Graintable Synthesis, a "grain" is:
an index point
a seed from which a sound sample grows
a tiny slice of audio
a point at which a filter slopes down
6
In a filter, the cutoff frequency is:
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
The frequency at which the slope of the cutoff ends
7
The button we press to reveal the "guts" of Thor is:
Show Settings
Show Programmer
Show Devices
Show Interface
8
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
9
In Subtractor, the velocity can only control the volume. True or false?
False
True
10
In FM Synthesis, we need two signals. A Carrier signal, and a _______ signal.
Multiplier
Modifier
Manipulator
Modulator
11
A very slow attack and release on the Amp Envelope is good to create:
lead sounds
pad sounds
organ sounds
bass sounds
12
To get to the back of a Reason device, in order to see the routing and cabling, we use the ______ keyboard shortcut.
Shift-Enter
Shift-Tab
Tab
Enter
13
LFO stands for...
Low Frequency Oscillator
Loud Filter Output
Loop Feedback Oscillator
Long Frequency Output
14
What are the four most standard waveforms?
Sine, Triangle, Square, Sawtooth
Sine, Rectangle, Square, Sawtooth
Sine, Triangle, Square, Rectangle
Rectangle, Triangle, Circle, Square
15
In Subtractive Synthesis, what are we "subtracting"?
Envelopes
Oscillators
Frequencies
Filters
16
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
slowing down the audio file
lowering the pitch of the audio file
17
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 Filter
Immediately to the output
Immediately to the Shaper
18
Which of the following is a parameter for fine-tuning the pitch?
Oct
Semi
Cent
Waveform
19
Timbre is:
the frequency of a sound and its resulting overtones
the color of a sound
the basic frequency of a sound
the distance between the lowest and highest notes
20
In a combinator, we can only add 1 effect per device. True or false?
True
False
21
Two oscillators and two LFOs are available in Subtractor. True or false?
False
True
22
The _____ controls the volume of the sound over time.
Amplitude Envelope
Filter Envelope
Modulation Envelope
23
What are the 4 basic sections of a subtractive synthesizer?
Wavetable, Preset, Filter, Effect
Wavetable, Envelope, LFO, Filter
Oscillator, Filter, Envelope, Amp
Oscillator, LFO, Preset, Effect
24
The Modulation Matrix in Thor will let you modulation nearly anything with ______ .
the amplitude envelope
velocity
nearly anything
the modulation envelope
25
Velocity refers to how hard we play the note on a keyboard. In Subtractor, this can be applied to:
FM Amount
Mix Amount
All answers are correct
Amplitude (volume)
