100
This device will take out the "pops" from vocal plosives and from sounds which occur very close to a microphone.
What is a pop shield?
100
This contains large files of sampled sound.
What is digital audio.
100
This family of effects includes phase and pitch shifting.
What is frequency?
100
Working with audio tracks to improve the balance, volume and special effects.
What is mixing?
100
This part of a speaker system produces sound by moving air.
What is a driver?
200
This instrument has a high sound pressure level (SPL), is a member of the percussion family, and is often heard in rock music.
What is a drum kit?
200
This contains small files that describe sounds.
What is MIDI?
200
Gain, fading, and panning are examples of effects in this family.
What is amplitude?
200
It is best to use these devices for listening when you are mixing.
What are speakers?
200
The measurement of how efficiently a loudspeaker can change electricity into sound (electrical energy to acoustical energy) is called this.
What is sensitivity?
300
This microphone is a possible solution when a sound source is quiet.
What is a condenser microphone with high sensitivity.
300
This device will record, edit, and store multiple tracks of digital audio.
What is a multiple-track recorder/editor?
300
This family of effects includes noise reduction, distortion, and clipping control.
What is timbre?
300
The process of finalizing an audio file and making it ready to distribute is called this.
What is mastering?
300
This process changes electrical energy into acoustical energy (changes electricity into sound).
What is electromagnetic transduction?
400
This is used to connect several audio devices to a computer.
What is a mixer?
400
This software contains patterns that are designed to repeat continuously.
What is loop-based software?
400
Reverb, echo, and delay are effects included in this family.
What is time?
400
This is making sounds seem to come from the left or right during the mixing process.
What is panning?
400
After air has been forced to move, this part of the speaker makes sound waves.
What is the diaphragm or speaker cone?
500
This digital audio hardware can be abbreviated ADC.
What is an Anolog to Digital Converter?
500
This displays sound visually in vertical layers.
What is a track?
500
Harmonizing and vocalizing are examples of this type of effect.
What is a specialized effect?
500
This process combines all the audio tracks into one stereo file.
What is mixdown?
500
This describes the angle that the sound travels outward from a loudspeaker.
What is directivity?
