  • DMA Recording Project Guidelines (Fall 2011) Page 1 of 2
    DMA – TMUS 8329 Major Project (4–6 cr.)* Guidelines for Recording Project In addition to the normal requirements of a recital, it is expected that the student will become involved in all aspects of the recording, in effect acting as producer from start to finish. Before undertaking the Recording Project: the student must submit a prospectus that is reviewed and approved by the faculty advisory committee and the Associate Dean of Graduate Studies. A copy of the prospectus must be kept in the student’s file. For a recording to fulfill the requirement, it must adhere to the following criteria. 1. Be comparable in length to a recital. 2. The student is responsible for coordinating all matters pertaining to the recording including: contracting of musicians, studio manager and recording engineer; CD printing or duplication, graphic art design layout, and recording label (optional). 3. The recording must be unique in some way that sets it apart from other recordings. Examples can include but are not limited to recordings that feature: original compositions and/or arrangements, collections of works that are less known and/or have not been readily available in recordings, and so on. This aspect of the project should reflect the student’s creativity and research skills. 4. The submitted recording must be of professional quality. 5. Post-recording work is an essential aspect of the project. The student must oversee the editing, mixing, and (optionally) the mastering of the recording. Refer to the definitions of these processes at the bottom of this document. a. Editing (if necessary) b. Mixing c.

  • How Does Binaural Audio Mixed for Headphones Translate to Loudspeaker Setups in Terms of Listener Preferences?
    How does binaural audio mixed for headphones translate to loudspeaker setups in terms of listener preferences? Ian Eiderbo Audio Technology, bachelor's level 2021 Luleå University of Technology Department of Social Sciences, Technology and Arts How does binaural audio mixed for headphones translate to loudspeaker setups in terms of listener preferences? 2 Abstract While most of today’s music listening is being done through headphones, mixing techniques using binaural audio are still not widely implemented in modern music production. This study aims to help inform mixing engineers on the applicability of binaural processing for music production, with the specific focus on how binaurally processed audio translates to loudspeakers in terms of listener preference. In this study a listening test was performed where binaurally processed mixes where given preference ratings in relation to a reference mix. Each listener completed the test twice, once using headphones and once using loudspeakers. The test results for the two playback systems were then compared. Only one of 12 mixes showed a significant difference in preference ratings with playback system as the factor, but the reported ratings showed a large disagreement among the 13 test subjects. The results from the study are inconclusive, however they do not suggest that the binaural processing used for the stimuli suffers in terms of listener preference when played back over loudspeakers. 3 Table of contents How does binaural audio mixed for headphones translate to loudspeaker setups in

  • The Use of Modelling Technology and Its Effects on the Music Industry
    The Use of Modelling Technology and Its Effects on the Music Industry Viljami Wenttola Bachelor’s thesis May 2017 Degree Programme in Media and Arts Music Production ABSTRACT Tampereen ammattikorkeakoulu Tampere University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Media and Arts Music Production VILJAMI WENTTOLA The Use of Modelling Technology and Its Effects on the Music Industry Bachelor's thesis 43 pages, appendices 15 pages May 2017 Modelling technology has revolutionized the music production industry in a big way. It has affected everyone in the field of music production from the live side to the studio, both commercial and private. Even though modelling technology has been around in one form or another for twenty years or so, the last ten have possibly brought the great- est advancements. In this thesis, the goal was to map out some of these changes from several different points of view by interviewing four music production industry profes- sionals and researching literature. The thesis project is a full-length album that was rec- orded almost entirely with modelling technology with the purpose of educating peers and people interested in music production of the possibilities that technology can bring. The research yielded many compelling insights and points-of-view into the matter and gives a contemporary picture of a rapidly changing and growing industry. The inter- views of four established professionals in the field of music production and their differ- ing careers each give a unique perspective on the matter. They’re all transcribed and translated in the appendices and they make for very interesting reading.

  • Mixing and Monitoring 2014
    Monitoring and Mixing Monitoring One of the most confusing aspects of audio reproduction involves loudspeakers and their effect on how we perceive the sound of our work. Just as microphones each have a characteristic sound, speakers have distinct colorations that they impart to the sound we play through them. The similarities are not coincidental: both microphones and speakers are physical transducers, with mechanical properties that directly affect how they perform the task of converting energy to and from mechanical and electronic representations. Since we cannot hear electronic signals directly, we need some form of transducer to convert them back to mechanical vibrations that we may hear. Like microphones, loudspeakers come in a variety of types; however the main type is similar to a dynamic microphone in reverse: applying an electronic signal to a coil attached to a diaphragm causes the coil and diaphragm to move in a fixed magnetic field. There are also electrostatic loudspeakers which may be thought of as more similar to a condensor microphone and even plasma speakers, which use high-voltage discharges to move the air, but these types are not commonly found in the studio and will not be discussed further here. What we need to understand is how the dynamic loudspeaker and its enclosure interact with the surrounding environment and convey sound information to our ears. Not only does this involve the speaker itself, but it also involves the room in which we are listening and the interaction of the speaker with the room. The early reflections recorded with the sounds give us a sense of the space in which the instruments were recorded.

Throughout the process he has shared his extensive knowledge and provided invaluable guidance, all of which has had a significant impact in my development as a researcher. I am also grateful to my fellow collaborators, Jordi Pons and Santiago Pascual, whose expertise and insight greatly facilitated my investigations through our many discussions. This project was carried out over a six month period during my internship in the Barcelona office of Dolby Laboratories. This fruitful collaboration provided the resources, space, and collaborations necessary to successfully carry out my work. This project would not have been possible without the resources and support Dolby Laboratories provided. I am also greatly indebted to the Audio Engineering Society Education Foundation, who provided financial support, first in my undergraduate education, and now in collaboration with Genelec, through the Ilpo Martikainen Audio Visionary Schol- arship. This generous funding has played a major role in supporting my studies while completing my master at Universitat Pompeu Fabra. I want to also thank my fellow classmates in the Sound and Music Computing master at Universitat Pom- peu Fabra, for their collaboration and fruitful discussions in this shared endeavor throughout this process.

  • 1 Comments After Reading Dr. Floyd Toole's Article „The Measurement
    Comments after reading Dr. Floyd Toole’s article „The Measurement and Calibration of Sound Reproducing Systems” Contents: 1. Comments of Raimonds Skuruls 2015.11.01 p. 1 2. Comments of Dr. Floyd Toole 2015.11.15 p. 10 3. Comments of Raimonds Skuruls 2015.11.26 p. 12 The author raises a wide range of problems in the field of loudspeaker usage, but is quite skimpy in proposing any real solutions. He points to a „widely accepted” steadystate amplitude response measurement that is being used just as a „matter of faith”, and which „now has penetrated consumer audio” simply as „an enticing marketing story”. He mentions the use of time windowed measurements as a next stage of development of steadystate amplitude response measurement. At the same time, he points out that „the simple measurements therefore cannot be definitive” and „there are reasons to exercise great caution in the application of equalization based on conventional in-room measurements.” The author only touches on some solutions very briefly and has not shown the source or basis for such conclusions: „The on-axis curve by itself is insufficient data. Full 360 data, appropriately processed, is important information.” „...spatially-averaged measurement to reveal the underlying curve.” Let’s look at the article, reading more closely. „For the system to function sensibly, mixing and mastering engineers need to experience sound that resembles what their customers will hear.” This is an overly simplified statement. Customers will not experience the same sound in most cases because their speakers are not as good as those used in radio, TV, ordinary car audio systems.
