Objective: Students will use Doucette’s G7 audio recording and editing suite to demonstrate basic understanding of multi-track recording.
Assessment: The group grade will be averaged with other project scores. Your professor will open one Audition .sesx file from the server.
At a minimum, the submitted Audition Multi-Track Session must have the following tracks:
- Scratch track
- Click Track
- Tuning Tone (usually middle “C”)
- 1st performer
- 2nd performer
- 3rd performer
Your work group will record a piece of music no less than one minute in length. The project grade privileges the following:
- proper equipment use
- accurate input/output and track routing
- adequate recording levels in the -6 to -12 dBFS range
- a low signal-to-noise ratio (minimal hiss and ambience)
- precise timing of discrete tracks and performances
- a cumulative mix of channels in the -6 to -12 dBFS range
As always, you are encouraged to appreciate the difference between (a) minimally satisfying the assignment’s requirements and (b) performing with imagination, initiative, and invention.
