1
For most studios, a control room with a _____ in front of the engineer and a _____ behind the engineer will yield controlled, natural results.
Dead end with absorption; live end with diffusion
Live end with absorption; dead end with diffusion
Dead end with diffusion; live end with absorption
Live end with diffusion; dead end with absorption
2
Decoupling a room is essentially...
Creating a room within a room to increase 'room tone' resonance.
Creating a room within a room to increase isolation.
Joining the outside wall to the interior wall of a space for increased isolation.
Using glue to hold a building together instead of screws.
3
Using layers of varying materials when building a wall improves isolation because...
Different materials prevent different frequency ranges from passing through.
Using the same materials throughout would yield too much isolation.
Using the same materials throughout is not up to fire code.
It's less expensive that way.
4
The role of absorption in a recording space is to...
Break up early reflections around the room.
Enhance early reflections and reverberation in the environment.
Remove early reflections and reverberation in the environment.
Prevent external noise from entering the room.
5
In the course, the trainer recommends treating _____ of a typical live room, while vocal booths may utilize _____ treatment.
20% - 35%; 30% - 35%
30% - 50%; 50% - 60%
60% - 80%; 20% - 30%
20% - 30%; 60% - 80%
6
NRC ratings calculate the _____ of frequency bands of a material, those bands being ________.
Absorption; 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 KHz, and 2 KHz
Reflection; 200 Hz, 400 Hz, 2 KHz, and 4 KHz
Reflection; 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 KHz, and 2 KHz
Absorption; 200 Hz, 400 Hz, 2 KHz, and 4 KHz
7
The RT-60 value of a small room would be ________ than a large hall because ________.
Shorter; Sound waves lose energy by reflecting off many surfaces
Shorter; Sound waves maintain energy by reflecting off many surfaces
Longer; Sound waves maintain energy by reflecting off many surfaces
Longer; Sound waves lose energy by reflecting off many surfaces
8
Early reflections tend to dissipate...
After 2 seconds.
After 50 milliseconds.
After 100 milliseconds.
After 30 milliseconds.
9
Kinesthetic people work best when ___________.
they have a textbook knowledge of the material
given information through listening
in an expensive studio
fully immersed in the work physically
10
The purpose of diffusion is to...
Focus the direct sound from a sound source to one point of the environment.
Prevent external sound from entering the space.
Break up direct sound into a more pleasing delay, without absorbing sound.
Absorb early reflections and reduce reverberation in the environment.
11
Bass frequencies are difficult to isolate because...
Their wavelengths are longer than high frequencies.
They are more directional than high frequencies.
They are faster than high frequencies.
They are louder than high frequencies.
12
________ are the three most important non-audio related features of your control room.
Mouse style, chair quality, and decoration
Chair quality, monitor position, and lighting
Monitor position, couches, and mouse style
