Journal 2 - Audio Engineering or your Health
The audio engineering field is a bit more difficult then most people would think. You need to understand the different kinds of hardware and software needed for your project. their are different options for audio hardware, like the M-box, or I/O Audio M-box which are both I/O devices too hook up mics and other hardware needed to record. I usually go with a basic M-box, having 2 mic line inputs, 2 midi inputs, and a quarter inch jack. I usually only use the mic lines, and have the musicians hook up their amps, and record through that. You then have to open up your audio software which would be like Frutie Loops, Cubix, and Pro-Tools, I open these and set my preferences on wavelength and sample rate. I set my wavelength at 148.9Khz, and my sample rate to 24 bits. The next part is set up the mics in the microphone output jacks, and set my mics to process through the M-box. Then I start recording what I am suppose to record through the mics.

ReplyDeleteThis is interesting, but I am not a technologically advanced person so here are my quesions:1. What is an I/O device? 2. Where can you get the audio software listed in your blog? 3. What is the difference between the M-box and the I/O Audio M-box?
ReplyDeleteI'm with Amanda on this one. I'm lost on an I/O device? But I feel like i have a relative idea on what your trying to say. I think you should make a mixtape and let me here it though.
ReplyDeleteI know some stuff in technology but this is definitely over my head. i could literally ask you a question about everything on here. such as where do i plug things in, what does it look like, and how do i know if i have it all set up and working right?
