MUSC 2410 - Sound Reinforcement I

(3)

Students receive a practical orientation to live sound reinforcement for voice and music. We will study a broad range of concepts and procedures including: basic sounds and acoustics, microphone design and application, sound system design, setup and testing procedures, Front of House (FOH) and Monitor mixing on both analog and digital consoles, signal processing and live stereo and multitrack recording with various digital recording devices. Lab activities focus on project-based learning and provide “hands-on” skill development with both music hardware and software in the service of live sound. Students are expected to crew on at least one live event. (2 hrs lec, 2 hrs lab)
