1
The main function of Audio Repair software is...
to auto-correct the pitch of vocals within a stereo mix
to fix common audio problems like background noise, leakage, & clipped audio
to quantizes the timing of drums within a stereo mix
2
Another name for a tube is...
an FET
a valve
a transformer
3
True or False: all compressors have Attack & Release controls.
False
True
4
True Peak metering...
estimates inter-sample peaks
shows the average signal level of a mix
isolates the loudest frequency in a mix
5
A Convolution reverb creates reverberation...
placing a speaker & mics in a dedicated empty room
by recording (sampling) the sound of a real room
by accumulating digital delays
6
Where is a brickwall limiter usually set when mastering?
-3 dB
-1 dB
0 dB
-0.3dB
7
A Plate reverb is...
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
a mechanical device with a metal sheet
a dedicated reflective room
8
Mastering most commonly involves...
reverb, echo & saturation
EQ, compression, and limiting
pitch & time shifting
9
A lowpass filter...
attenuates everything below a cutoff frequency
attenuates everything above a cutoff frequency
passes everything above a cutoff frequency
10
Linear-phase processing...
usually adds significant latency
is never appropriate for mastering
is a zero-latency effect
11
In a delay effect Modulation...
adds resonance to the signal
varies the manually-set delay time
increases the amount of feedback
12
A Brickwall limiter...
sets an absolute maximum signal level
sharply attenuates everything above a certain frequency
should be used on every track in a mix
13
Bi-amped studio monitors...
have separate amps for the woofer & tweeter
have separate amps for the left & right speakers
use a single mono amp for both speakers
14
A 4-pole filter has a slope of...
24 dB/octave
12 dB/octave
6 dB/octave
15
Delay-based echo effects...
utilize delay times above 30-50 milliseconds
utilize delay times within the Haas Eeffect's Fusion Zone
utilize delay times below 30-50 milliseconds
16
A high-frequency shelving EQ band (shelf)...
boosts or cuts all frequencies around a center frequency
boosts or cuts all frequencies above a corner frequency
boosts or cuts all frequencies below a corner frequency
17
The goal of de-essing is to...
remove excessive sibilance in a vocal track
attenuate the level of background music when a voiceover comes along
apply pitch-shifting to simplify melodies that are too busy
18
A FET compressor...
usually has a fast, aggressive response characteristic
uses a special tube with variable bias
usually has a very slow, subtle response characteristic
19
In parallel compression...
two compressors are used one after the other for a more subtle compression characteristic
all controls are set to the same value
a copy of the signal is compressed & mixed with the uncompressed version
20
A Limiter...
auto-corrects pitches above & below a user-specified range
is a compressor with a Ratio of 10:1–20:1 or higher
corrects tempo variations above a user-specified bpm
21
A Multiband compresor...
compresses different frequency ranges independently
is specifically intended for multitrack drum recordings
must be instantiated on several individual tracks, all linked together
22
A parametric EQ's "Q" controls...
determine the range of boost & cut for each band
set the center frequency of each band
adjusts the bandwidth of each band
23
Mic preamps all provide...
gain & the correct impedance for microphones
enough gain for line-level devices
onboard EQ & delay-based effects
24
A studio's Reverb Chamber is...
a mechanical device with tensioned springs
a mechanical device with a metal sheet
a dedicated reflective room
25
A variable-mu compressor...
utilizes a particular transistor in the detection circuit
uses a photoresistor in the detection circuit
uses a special tube with variable bias in the detection circuit
