About this Unit
In 2018 this unit replaced by 102560 - Studio Production. This unit builds on concepts and practical work from Sound Synthesis and the Sound Environment. As the first unit in a sub-major sequence in Sound Technologies it prepares students creatively and technically to undertake self-directed technology-based projects as composers, sound designers and producers. Areas to be examined include an introduction to professional-level sound studios, multi-track, hard disk recording systems, critical listening training, and principles of sonic composition and studio production. Students identify, propose and complete a major studio-based creative project.
