At the start of this masterclass, we used this definition of our approach to music technology in the AudioLab:
"Engineering the tools used to create, capture, and manipulate audio"
You should now have completed all of the modules in this masterclass, where you will have seen examples of this approach to a variety of topics and applications. You should have some understanding of the behaviour of sound waves in spaces (acoustics) and the science of our perception of sound (psychoacoustics).
This knowledge, along with an understanding of how we can represent the properties of audio signals in the time and frequency domains, should then have equipped you to engage with material covering sound design for video games and to have a go at some audio programming. You should then have watched videos from our brilliant PhD students giving you an insight into their research.
It's now time to put all your new knowledge to the test in the Music Technology Masterclass Quiz. You must score at least 75% in the quiz to be eligible for a certificate. You can have as many attempts of the quiz as you need. Remember, you can email pet-outreach@york.ac.uk if you need any help!
Music Technology Courses at the University of York
Music Technology Courses at the University of York
If you have enjoyed this masterclass, you may want to consider studying Music Technology at university. Here at the University of York, we run a degree course called Electronic Engineering with Music Technology Systems. As with all of our Engineering courses, this course is fully accredited by the The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). It is available as a 3-year BEng degree and a 4-year MEng degree (course variants including a foundation year and/or an industrial placement year are also available). The video below provides a brief overview of studying Engineering at York.
In our Electronic Engineering with Music Technology Systems course we aim to provide students with a strong base of technical engineering skills that they can then use in creative applications. Topics covered include:
Recording studio techniques.
Sound design for visual media.
Acoustics & psychoacoustic theory.
Impulse response recording & analysis.
iOS programming for audio.
Voice science & synthesis.
Digital signal processing.
You can see that we have touched on a number of these topics in this masterclass. If you would like to know more about these courses and the options available, please use the links below.
