    This document discusses two types of signal processing: parallel processing and series processing. Parallel processing involves applying different processes simultaneously to the same source, such as filtering, echo, etc. Series processing takes a processed sound and processes it through additional effects in sequence. The key difference is that parallel processing applies different effects simultaneously, while series processing applies effects one after another in a chain. Students are instructed to experiment with both types of processing and save intermediary processed files when doing series processing.

    REVIEW
    Understand the relationship between digital signal processing
    and its analogue predecessors.
    Understand the principles behind basic signal processing,
    such as reversal, pitch shifting, filtering.
    Be able to apply these signal processing techniques to your
    sounds.

    PARALLEL VS. SERIES PROCESSING


    There are two avenues of exploration in processing your source
    sounds that relate directly to the classic tape studio. The first
    method is considered parallel processing (which has nothing to do
    with multiple CPUs). The idea is to create different processes from
    the same source: for example, a filter process, an echo process, a
    different process, and so on. In the studio these processes were
    done in real time using the effects send model.

    A parallel process in which a single input is processed at the same time in different ways.

    Parallel processing allows for interesting dynamic mixing of


    the processes at the same time. The processes themselves may be
    simple and/or subtle; the interest derives from their combination.
    The notion of parallel processing can be modelled, at least in
    part, by selecting a source file and processing it, saving the
    processed file with a different name, and then doing the same again
    to the source file using a different process. We will come back to
    this ideaand the possibility of combining parallel processesin
    later labs.
    The other type of processing is called series processing. It
    involves taking a processed sound and processing it again. An

    example would be slowing a tape down, putting it through a filter,


    then taking the output of the filter and putting that into a
    reverberation unit.

    Series processing.

    Series processing can be modelled by selecting a source file and


    processing it, then processing it again (and again and again . . .).
    You should explore both types of processing. However, it is
    useful to save intermediary processes when you are series processing
    since you never know when you might have a use for those
    particular processes. In other words, the difference between the
    two methods is not that you dont save between processes, but
    rather that series processing begins with a processed file.

    This is especially true in VST processing; use only one VST plug-in at
    a time before bouncing.
