Describe the cochlea.
It’s where frequencies are detected and it’s one’s center of balance.
2.5 kHz and above _______ off of a head.
2.5 kHz and above reflect off of a head.
Explain temporary threshold shift.
Acoustic: When one;s muscles clamp down on to his or her hammer, anvil, and stirrup to stop it vibrating so much due to short term loud sound. Psychoacoustic: Cotton in one’s ears.
Explain tinnitus.
Acoustic: Cilia being stimulated so much that they break off or are about to break off.

Psychoacoustic: Ringing in one’s ears.

List four types of signal processors.
Spectrum (EQ/Filter)
Time (Reverb, Delay, Pitch Shift, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser)
Amplitude/Dynamics (Compressor, Limiter, Gate, Expander)
Noise (Dolby, DBX, Izotope Vinyl, Funk Logic Masterizer)

EQs can _____ and ___.

EQs can boost and cut.

Filters only cut.

What does the frequency response curve of a device show?
Linearity (line level)
Efficiency (equal to)
Deficiency (Less than)
Hyper Sensitivity (greater than)
Range of frequencies.
A spectrum analyzer shows the frequency response curve in real time.
Shoots.
List two equalization principals.
Peak dip and shelving.
List two frequency characteristics of peak dip. Explain the two.
Center frequency: The highest/lowest frequency point in the middle of a peak dip. Bandwidth (Q): The range of affected frequencies from left to right of the center frequency.
The narrower the bandwidth, the less frequencies affected and vise versa.
Yah.
Descrive a shelving characteristic.
Turnover Frequency: The frequency selected on a shelving equalization where all frequencies from 20Hz or 20kHz to the selected frequency are either boosted or cut.
The frequency selected on a filter is called what?
The cutoff frequency.
Describe ground frequency hum.
A notch filter: Gets rid of one specific frequency.
When mixing on the board, set the kick to __ on the VU meter.
When mixing on the board, set the kick to -7 on the VU meter.
What is an equalizer?
Equalizer – An amplifier that can boost or attenuate groups of frequencies.
