Microphone
A microphone is a ______ that converts acoustic sound energy into an electrical audio signal.
transducer
This type of audio uses two separate channels allowing the panning of the audio direction
stereo audio
What is the function of a Cone
Moves back and forth and pushes air to create sound waves.
what is an audio object ?
a method by which game objects talk to each other and the player.
condenser
What are the 3 main components does dynamic microphone have ?
Diaphragm
Voice Coil
Magnet
This audio is commonly use to emulate TV or radio static
White noise
Does does a voice coil do in a speaker?
Receives the electrical audio signal
Interacts with the magnetic field
Moves the cone
There are three types of object interaction which are ?
direct, indirect, and environmental.
What is the use of studio monitors
Used to listen to accurate and neutral audio reproduction (used on audio production)
How does a condenser microphone convert sound wave to electrical signal ?
Sound waves hit the diaphragm.
The diaphragm moves relative to the backplate.
The distance between them changes.
This changes capacitance.
The change is converted into an electrical audio signal.
What is bass and trebble
Bass describes the low-frequency portion of sound.
Treble describes the high-frequency portion of sound.
Explain what is the use of a spider in a speaker ?
Keeps the voice coil centred
Controls the movement of the voice coil
Helps return it toward its neutral position
What is the different between direct and indirect communication ? (examples are accepted)
Direct Communication
An object communicates directly as a cause of direct action on its part
Indirect Communication
This is an indirect method of object interaction. That is, by causing something to happen in the game, something else responds sonically.
Which polar pattern is more suitable to be use in a podcast and why
Bidirectional/ Figure-8
Front pickup
Back pickup
Side rejection
How does a dynamic microphone convert sound wave to electrical signal ?
Sound waves hit the diaphragm.
Diaphragm moves the voice coil.
Voice coil moves within a magnetic field.
Movement generates an electrical signal.
A person who recreate sound effect using real world object is called ?
a folley artist
Subwoofer → Very Low Frequencies
Woofer → Low Frequencies
Midrange = squawker → Mid Frequencies
Tweeter → High Frequencies
Give an example of a good character development through audio
A weak character may be depicted through the use of a humorous voice.
A stronger character's dramatic personae can be highlighted through the use of a deeper and more resonant voice, as well as a script that relates without question his or her authority.
list the three different field distance in studio monitor
Near Field Monitor
Mid Field Monitor
Far Field Monitor
List the all the polar pattern of microphone that you have learnt
Cardioid
Omnidirectional
Bidirectional / Figure-8
Supercardioid
Hypercardioid
Subcardioid
Shotgun
This audio file format is smaller then others and save the sound in the form of instrumental keys. (Double point if you can get the full name)
MIDI
(Musical Instrument Digital Interface)
what is the different between a passive studio monitor and an active studio monitor
Active
→ Has their own built in amplifier
Passive
→ Uses external amplifier
Explain what is an ambient sound ?
Ambient sound refers to the sound world that is generated from a player's location in the game space. It is a system of indirect and environmental cues that immerse a player in a particular setting.
What are the difference between 2 way and 3 way studio monitor?
Two way monitor
→ uses woofer and tweeter
→ generally cheaper
Three way monitor
→ uses woofer, squawker, and tweeter
→ separate frequency ranges more effectively
→ More expensive
