Aims
To provide the student with a thorough understanding of the range of signal processing options available to the audio engineer. This will build on the knowledge gained during both Core Recording Skills and Sound Technology Theory.
The module will have two parallel paths; one that deals with the design of processing tools within a digital environment and the other that deals with the application of these tools to a variety of production scenarios.
Additionally the content will connect many technical parameters to their associated aesthetic attributes and will focus on critical listening ability.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Design their own signal processors within a software environment.
2.
Demonstrate a technical understanding of the design and application of audio signal processors.
3.
Apply a wide range of signal processing in both remedial and creative applications.
4.
Associate objective parameters with perceived subjective qualities and cultural conventions when making creative judgements.
