Sound
Sound is omnidirectional and omnipresent, with qualities like timbre, level, and continuity that must be considered when recording. Unlike light, sound dissipates quickly on a logarithmic scale. While background noise, echo/reverb, and distortion cannot be removed in post-production, effects like additional background noise, echo/reverb, music, foley, and sound effects can be added. When recording audio, it is important to consider the space for booms, record as clean and flat as possible while monitoring, and re-shoot if needed. Using clappers and consistent microphone placement and techniques are essential for continuity.
How to record an electronic instrument - Marcin Badura
The document outlines the steps to record an electronic instrument using a turntable and mixer: 1) Connect the turntable to the mixer using an RCA cable and grounding wires, connecting to the phono inputs on the mixer; 2) Connect the mixer to an audio interface using an RCA to 1/4 inch cable, connecting the line outputs of the mixer to the preamps of the audio interface; 3) Start recording in a DAW and play a record on the turntable while adjusting the gain knobs on the mixer and audio interface to avoid clipping.
A recording studio
This document provides information about setting up a recording studio, including necessary equipment like a computer, DAW software, microphone, headphones and speakers. It discusses soundproofing a room using acoustic elements like absorbers and diffusers. The recording process is outlined starting with separate tracking of instruments and vocals, then mixing and mastering to balance levels and frequencies and make other adjustments in the DAW.
New way to record
New way to record. This idea is important because Audio tapes, video tapes are declining. Fortunately, there is no limit how long you record it on the computer when using the boom box, the portable radios and more....
Rough Cut Feedback
The document provides feedback on a video, praising the clear camera angles and well-chosen sounds, but criticizing that ambient sound was needed behind voiceovers, the music was too happy, and there were too many newspapers visible in shots. It recommends adding more speech, smoothing out some jumpy sounds, and canceling out background walking noises.

These are slides from a workshop on recording and editing audio material I have given at the Digital Writing and Research Lab at UT Austin in different iterations over the last few years.
Assignment4
This document discusses strategies for reducing unwanted electrical and acoustic noise when recording music. It identifies two main types of noise - acoustic noise from the recording space and surroundings, and electrical noise from recording equipment. Some tips provided include choosing a quiet recording space, identifying and isolating specific noise sources, using fewest possible pieces of equipment with short balanced cables, turning off unnecessary power sources, using high quality gear, optimizing microphone placement and polar patterns, and leveraging noise reduction tools in post-production rather than trying to fix all noise in the mix. The overall goal is to capture a clean recording with minimal noise to provide flexibility in later production stages.

This document discusses reducing waste and improving efficiencies in healthcare systems to improve quality. It notes that annual growth in healthcare expenditures is a problem in OECD countries. The primary goal of healthcare policy should be to maximize population health within available resources and with principles of equity and solidarity. Improving value for money in healthcare can be achieved through more cost-effective interventions that provide greater health effects for lower costs. Benchmarking cost-effectiveness against thresholds like GDP per capita can help identify good value interventions. Examples show potential cost savings from reducing overuse and investing more in prevention and innovation to reinvest in health. A crucial condition for success is developing a perfect eHealth system.

Making Joyful Noise With Your Computer For Fun and Profit
This is the June 2011 program presented by Will Cheshier. The title is "Making Joyful Noise With Your Computer For Fun and Profit."
Sure, music has charms to "soothe the savage breast", but it also has been known to help out in movies (can you imagine "2001" without daaaaaaaaaa, daaaaaaaaaa, daaaaaaaaaa, DA DAAAAAAAA, boom boom boom boom, etc? Me neither). It's also good for podcasts, home videos and it's just plain fun. Computer music and sound has come to the point where anyone can produce professional-quality recordings on a laptop for not a lot of money. At the July CDPUG meeting we'll be talking about the equipment and techniques needed to get sound into and out of your computer so you can join the fun.
Will Cheshier is a graphic designer and regionally active singer/songwriter and guitarist. He also suffers from Musical G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome). He has been recording in professional studios and at home since the 80s with an excessive amount of acquired gear, so he knows a thing or two about what works and a lot about what doesn't when it comes to computer sound

How to reduce unwanted noise when recording
This document provides information on reducing noise while recording. It discusses two main types of noise: acoustic noise from outside sources or within the recording space, and electrical noise from equipment. To reduce acoustic noise, the recording space should be isolated from outside noise through insulation and absorbing materials. Electrical noise can be decreased by using balanced cables, limiting equipment, and ensuring high-quality gear. Proper microphone placement and gain levels are also important to minimize noise in the recording.
