Audio Engineering And Sound Technology

In this unit, students will research the basics of sound waves (waveforms, amplitude, cycles per second, sound quality).

In this unit, students will develop an understanding of microphone technology and learn to apply appropriate microphone-placement techniques, cables, and connectors.

In this unit, students will assemble and operate the basic components of a sound-reinforcement system, including mixers, equalizers, and balanced and unbalanced cables.

In this unit, students will deepen their understanding of audio effects, including reverb, echo, and delay, as well as signal processors, amplifiers, crossovers, speakers, and monitor systems.

In this unit, students will create music tracks in GarageBand for a variety of purposes, including animation, film, slideshows, and original compositions.
