A study of foundational principles of the science of sound as necessary for training in audio engineering and digital sound design involving written, aural, and analytical perspectives including, but not limited to ear training, harmonics, frequencies, equalization, sound synthesis, and overall sound structure within acoustic and digital settings.
This course lays the foundations for technical ear training and sound analysis. Rhythmic ear training may also be incorporated according to class needs. Students will engage in critical listening, sound journaling, creating a source recordings list, class discussions, student presentations, and technical ear training modules.
