When you create a new session or project in Pro Tools, the key signature defaults to 1). - ✔✔1) C major In manual tempo mode, you can enter a BPM value in the Tempo field or tap in the tempo as follows: - ✔✔1) Click the Tempo Ruler Enable button (aka. Conductor button) so that it becomes unhighlighted
What are the File size considerations? - ✔✔Choosing higher sample rates and bit depths to increase the amount of disk space required to store your audio files The Volume Fader in the Mix window 1) affect the input gain (record level) of a signal being recorded. The signal level must be set appropriately at the
Pro tools provides two types of selections: - ✔✔Timeline selection and edit selection Inserts on audio tracks, instrument tracks and aux inputs are 1). However, inserts on master fader are always 2). - ✔✔1) Pre-fader
Amplitude- The intensity of the sound. dB By directing translating the electrical waveform, frequency, and amplitude back into variations in air pressure The relationship between sample rate and frequency: - ✔✔The higher the sample rate, the higher the frequency Nyquist Theorem The relationship between bit depth and dynamic range: - ✔✔Bit depth is the number of quantization Dynamic range is quantization related to signal- to- error
Pro Tools HDX is not What is the maximum dynamic range of 16 - bit audio? - ✔✔ 96 dB What is the process called when you record an audio signal into Pro Tools, and the analog signal is then converted into binary information that can be stored, read, and manipulated by a computer. - ✔✔Analog to digital conversion Which 2 companies have played a direct role in developing Pro Tools software? - ✔✔Avid Technology and Digi design What unit of measurement is used to indicate the amplitude of a sound? - ✔✔dB Pro Tools also lets you create a different kind of document, known as a
The relationship between the session folder, the session file, and the various subfolders within the session folder: - ✔✔1) When creating a Pro Tools session, the system sets up a standard hierarchy and its files by automatically creating a top-level session folder
The 1) tools include the Zoomer tool, the Trim tool, the Selector tool, the Grabber tool, the Scrubber tool, and the Pencil tool. - ✔✔1) Edit The 1) tool to zoom in and out within a track. Is useful when you need to examine a clip or waveform closely. - ✔✔1) Zoomer You can use the 1) tool for Marquee Zooming, allowing you to zoom in on a waveform horizontally and vertically. - ✔✔1) Zoomer The 1) keys functions as a reverse modifier in Pro Tools. - ✔✔1) Option/Alt The 1) tool while holding the option while clicking the 1) tool to zoom out. - ✔✔1) Zoomer The 1) tool can be used to 1) excess audio, MIDI, or video from the beginning or end of a clip. - ✔✔1) Trim
The 1) tool modifies the clips nondestructively, leaving the underlying source file unchanged. - ✔✔1) Trim The 1) tool while holding option positioning the 1) tool to reverse its direction. - ✔✔1) Trim The 1) tool can use to position the playback cursor or to select an area in a track for playback or editing. - ✔✔1) Selector The 1) tool selects both horizontally and vertically, allowing you to create selections across multiple tracks in a single operation. - ✔✔1) Selector The 1) modifier is commonly used for making or extending selections in Pro Tools. - ✔✔1) Shift
