Sound
What SPL stands for.
What is sound pressure level?
Sound waves are made of compressions and rarefactions of this.
What are air molecules?
What DAW stands for.
This is an example of a DAW.
What is Reaper, Bandlab, Audacity, Ableton Live, Logic Pro X, FL Studio, Pro Tools, Cubase, Studio One, GarageBand, Reason, Bitwig Studio, Acid Pro, Soundtrap, LMMS, Digital Performer, Samplitude, PreSonus Studio One, Tracktion, Ardour, Mixcraft, Nero SoundTrax, Magix Music Maker, Music Maker Jam, Waveform, GarageBand, Samplitude Pro X, Nuendo, Reason Studios, Sound Forge, or Logic Express.
Of the following words, this one happens before the others: Mastering, Overdubbing, Recording, Mixdown.
What is recording?
These things are found in the cochlea and convert the vibrations of waves into electric impulses so that our brain can process the occurrence as sound.
What are hairs (or stereocilia)?
The low points on a sound pressure time graph.
What are rarefactions?
Voltage is the pressure behind this type of particle.
Digital data is stored using this system, represented by 0s and 1s.
What is binary?
This type of data is recorded physically (like a voice or an instrument), meaning all sound waves are continuous and the sound is transmitted via waves.
What is analog data?
The frequency of a sound, measured in cycles per second.
What is hertz?
The high points on a sound pressure time graph.
What are compressions?
Amplitude is measured in this unit.
What is decibels (dB)?
This is the smallest piece of information on your computer, often represented by a 0 or a 1.
What is a binary bit?
This type of data is recorded electronically (like using a DAW), and replicates real sound wave information using finite set of values, aka 1s and 0s
What is digital data?
The spiral cavity of the inner ear containing the organ of Corti, which produces nerve impulses in response to sound vibrations.
What is cochlea?
In a sound wave, this is the measure of the height of the wave. This also can be defined as the loudness, where a high one of these means the sound is louder.
What is amplitude?
What DAC stands for.
What is digital to audio converter?
Similar to a vinyl, A DAC converts the numbers (0s and 1s) into electric signals that mimic what?
What is sound waves?
This person is responsible for helping the artist meet their goals and arrive at a perfect and beautiful final product. They are the one selling "the product," often has control of the money or "the final say." This person also often is the one engineering and mixing the song.
What is producer?
The more waves per second there are (also known as a higher frequency), the ______ the pitch is.
What is higher?
What DAD stands for.
What is digital audio data? (The digital representation of recorded sound)
This is part of your computer that is a DAC, which turns the digital data into electric signals.
What is a sound card?
A unit used to measure the intensity of a sound or the power level of an electrical signal by comparing it with a given level on a logarithmic scale.
What is decibel?
