8
In Reason's Malström, when we don't select any of the boxes from routing the signal, where does the sound go?
Immediately to the output
Immediately to the Shaper
Nowhere-it does not output
Immediately to the Filter
9
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?
True
False

sustain level
15
Timbre is:
the distance between the lowest and highest notes
the frequency of a sound and its resulting overtones
the basic frequency of a sound
the color of a sound
16

17
In FM Synthesis, we need two signals. A Carrier signal, and a _______ signal.
Modulator
Manipulator
Multiplier
Modifier
18
In Graintable Synthesis, a "grain" is:
an index point
a point at which a filter slopes down
a tiny slice of audio
a seed from which a sound sample grows
19
In Reason's Malström, when we turn the Motion knob to the left, we are:
slowing down the audio file
