organized by actors

Organizational Paperwork Costume Bible, Costume Renderings, Costume

Layouts

Path of Sound Through The sound waves goes into outer ear -> ear canal ->
Ear eardrum -> middle ear -> cochlea -> auditory
nerves

How Sound is Generated generating a change in air pressure or a wave that

eventually reaches your ears

Speed of Sound constant 767 mph

Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz), cycles per second

Humans can hear between 20 - 20,000 Hz

Higher Amplitude higher intensity, louder sound

Timbre the perceived sound quality of a musical note,

sound, or tone; distinguishes different types of
sound from each other

How is Sound Employed in Music, Sound Effects, Vocal Reinforcement

Theatre?

Music pre-show/intermission/post-show music,

accompaniment, underscoring scenes

Vocal Reinforcement amplifying human voice to be heard consistently

in a large space

Reverberation the persistence of a sound after its source has

stopped

Sound Decay Time how long it takes for a sound to fade out after
being generated

Sound Sources generates electronic sound signal

Analog waves are spiky

Digital waves are flat

Examples of Sound Sources reel-to-reel player, microphone, 8-track tape

player/cart machine, mini-CD writer, computers

Mic Level voltage of a signal generated by a microphone,

weakest level, needs a pre-amp to bring it to line
level

Instrument Level falls b/w mic level and line level, needs a
preamplifier to bring it to line level

Line Level highest level signal before amplification, signal

that typically flows through recording system after
pre-amp and before amplifier that powers
speakers

Consumer Line Level -10 dBV, what you'd find in a CD player

Professional Line Level +4 dBu, found in equipment like mixing desks,

preamplifiers, and signal processing equipment

Speaker Level post-amplification signals, after a line level signal

enters an amplifier. Much higher in voltage than LL
and needs speaker cables for safe signal transfer

Sound Console/Mixer takes in several sources and distributes them at

line level to various outputs, acts as a pre-amp
and has minor equalization on a per channel basis

Mic Trim ("Gain") how much of an incoming signal is allowed in

High/Med/Low Frequency EQ like tone knobs, gives a bit of sound fixing for that
line, enhances or diminishes sound

Aux Sends sends signal to where you want it to go as

unaffected by the fader

Equalizer takes in LL signal, manipulates the signal to

counteract the inequities of the room and outputs
the refined signal at LL

Amplifier receives a LL signal and transforms and outputs

the signal at SPEAKER level

Loud Speaker receives signal at speaker level and converts it

into audible sound
