RELATED LINKS Info Line on page 173 6 Introduction About the Program Versions About the Program Versions The documentation covers the operating systems Windows and Mac OS X. Features and settings that are specific to one of these platforms are clearly indicated. In all other cases, the descriptions and procedures in the documentation are valid for Windows and Mac OS X. Some points to consider: • The screenshots are taken from a Windows operating system. • Some functions that are available on the File menu on Windows operating systems can be found in the program name menu on Mac OS X operating systems. Conventions In our documentation, we use typographical elements and mark-ups to structure information. Typographical Elements The following typographical elements mark the following purposes.

  • Soundtrap & Audacity
    Audio Editing Basics Soundtrap & Audacity - jstaveley Welcome To Audio Editing Basics The purpose of this collection of slides is to engage with some very basic ideas about audio editing, how you could approach it, and some language to help you navigate your software and workspace. Please check out our video tutorials and other resources for more information. You can email questions &/or requests for new or different training modules to [email protected] Overall Process It is important to prepare for and engage with each step along the way. You have already recorded your content - and now you need to prepare it for presentation. There are many steps you could take - but, remember: if you did the work before recording, there will be less need to edit, mix and master during this stage. Use your ears and your perspective - and trust them when deciding which steps you need to take for each audio production piece you produce. Once you have gathered your tape - decide which parts you want to keep, make them as audible as possible through editing - and then arrange them the way you want us to hear them. Audio that has been edited poorly can sound choppy if you don’t cut/paste (etc) carefully - using volume fading where required, and listening back to each change you make along the way before moving on to the next task. It’s like making a collage with magazines - you cut all the pieces into the shapes you want, then stick them on the paper where you want them...and then photocopy to make a final, single image that incorporates all the small images.

  • ANALYSIS of ZERO-LEVEL SAMPLE PADDING of VARIOUS MP3 CODECS by JOSH BERMAN B.S., University of Colorado, Denver, 2013 a Thesis S
    ANALYSIS OF ZERO-LEVEL SAMPLE PADDING OF VARIOUS MP3 CODECS By JOSH BERMAN B.S., University of Colorado, Denver, 2013 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science Recording Arts 2015 © 2015 JOSH BERMAN ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii This thesis for the Master of Science Degree by Josh Berman has been approved by the Recording Arts Program By Lorne Bregitzer Jeff Smith Catalin Grigoras, Chair 11/20/2015 iii Berman, Josh (M.S. Recording Arts) Analysis of Zero-Level Sample Padding of Various MP3 Codecs Thesis directed by Assistant Professor Catalin Grigoras ABSTRACT As part of the MP3 compression process, the codec used will often pad the beginning and end of a file with “zero-level samples”, or silence. The number of zero-level samples (ZLS) varies by codec used, sample rate, and bit depth of the compression. Each re-compression of a file in the MP3 format will typically add more silence to the beginning and/or end of the file. By creating multiple generations of files using various audio editors/codecs, we hope to be able to determine the generation of MP3 compression of the files based solely off of the number of ZLS at the beginning and end of the file. The form and content of this abstract are approved. I recommend its publication. Approved: Catalin Grigoras iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I’d like to thank my family, first and foremost, for being so awesome and supportive throughout my education.
