Audio Principles with Eric and J

Due Oct. 20th. Bring your CD to class! Studio B Project- Requirements – 1. Have at least 4 tracks. 2. Total length must exceed 60 seconds. 3. Loops and imported audio are permitted (use Import Audio from file menu) 4. At least one track must be audio that you recorded in Studio B. Finished product should be bounced to disk and burned on a CDR using Itunes (or any other thing). (A blank CDR can be found in my office, if you don’t have one). How to bounce to disk: Look under file menu. Choose FILE – then – BOUNCE TO DISK A dialog box appears. Verify that all your settings are as below: Bounce source = Analog 1 & 2 File type = *.wav Format = Stereo Interleaved Resolution = 16 Sample Rate = 44100 Convert during bounce = either during or after (This doesn’t matter) When your settings match those above, then click the BOUNCE button on the dialog box. Protools will then ask you to save your file. Name it something relevant. Since this is the only file you’ll save, I’d recommend you save it in a place you’ll easily find it. I save to the Root folder (the one above the Audio Files folder, which is the default). Sometimes the Desktop is the easiest place to find your bounce, assuming you’ll be cleaning it off immediately after your CD is burned. You will have to listen to Protools compact the audio and interleave it. If you used any inserts (EQ, REVERB, etc…) this is the point where it actually gets applied to the mixdown and everything is summed into one stereo file. When finished, close and save the protools file (actually, you may delete it, since you have your bounce for this grade). Start I-tunes, make a new playlist and burn your bounce onto a CDR.
