    Signal Chain

    Gate - A dynamic processor used to cut


    frequency below a threshold level
    It consists of attack, release, hold.

    Reduction in gate is how closed the gate is gets


    closed

    EQ, Compressor, Dynamic processing

    Threshold f
    Reduction

    Attack, Hold,Release
    Hysteresis and Lookahead

    —EQ - Its a filter on an audio signal used to


    cut or boost certain frequencies in a
    spectrum.

    • Frequency — This is the point in the frequency


    spectrum at which a filter or EQ is applied. For
    a parametric EQ, this point is referred to as the
    center frequency. For all other filters, this is the
    cutof frequency (band pass filters contain high
    and low cutof frequencies), and cutof or
    "corner" frequencies for tone controls. Cutof
    frequencies begin at the half-power point or "3
    dB down" point.

    • Boost/Cut — The amount of gain (boost) or


    reduction (cut) that is applied at a given
    frequency. This applies only to parametric and
    shelving filters (tone filters).

    • Slope — In a high pass or low pass filter, this is


    the amount of attenuation in dB per octave.
    Slope values are in 6 dB increments,
    corresponding to the number of circuits in the
    filter (two circuits) will have a 12 dB slope.
    Multiple filters can be added together in series
    to increase the slope.

    • Q — The ratio of the center frequency divided by


    the bandwidth. Q stands for "quality factor."

    Filters, Slope , Q

    —Compressor is a dynamic processing unit


    which is used to compress a signal if the
    signal crosses a threshold.
    -Threshold of a compressor is a level beyond
    which the signals starts to compress
    -Ratio- Ratio of a compressor is t
    Attack - Attack of a compressor
    Release
    Makeup Gain - After the signal is compressed

    Sidechaining

    — Reverb
    How to calculate reverb - Divide 60000/Tempo =
    Reverb Time(m/s)
    125 pre delay = Quarter note delay

    Reflectivity -
    —Delay

    2 parameters
    Delay time and Feedback(Loops the last
    delayed version of original signal)
    —We can also manually delay by making a
    duplicate file and shifting by a few mili
    seconds.

    — Effects
    Chorus
    Flanger

    — Synthesis
    1) Oscillator - Sound generator( It triggers a
    waveform)

    -Sin Wave (No Harmonics)


    Good for making bass sounds, Its has only one
    fundamental frequency
    We Can make dark sounds
    Organ /EP sounds,

    -Sawtooth Wave ( When complex sin waves


    merge then sawtooth wave)
    Fundamental sound + Odd/Even Harmonics
    We can make string sounds, violin, trumpet
    sounds,
    This has odd and even harmonics to it.
    In this close notes will have dissonance,

    -Square Wave ( Example song - Like a G6)


    (also called pulse wave cuz we can change the
    width of the wave)
    Same as sawtooth wave but it drops in even
    harmonics
    Perfect to make tuba or trumpet,
    A little hollow then sawtooth

    -Triangle Wave
    Good for organ sounds,bellish sounds

    -Noise ( All frequencies at same amplitude)

    — Operator in Ableton used for synth control.

    ( And Combination of these forms make sound)

    2) Filter- Gives timbre to a sound


    Basically we can

    3) ADSR or envelope - Gives structure to a


    sound
    Attack Decay u

    4) LFO or modulation - Gives movement in


    sound

    5) Amp - Amplifies a sound.

    And do that with conviction…

    And yes tumhara Kat gaya
