Introduction to Electronic and Computer Music

Individual Project #1

GOAL: Working alone and using Pro Tools, record some sounds.

· You must include at least one use of a microphone

· You must include at least one use of the mixing board's EQ.

· You need to demonstrate your ability to pan a sound left and right.

· At least once on your recording you should have at least two events occurring at the same time (for example, a voice from the microphone and a synthesizer).

· You must use the effects sends on the mixing board to add effects from one of the digital signal processors.

· You must have at least three tracks of audio in your Pro Tools file.

To hand in:

· A CD-R recording of your Pro Tools session,

· the folder name of your Pro Tools session in your computer folder, and

· a typed/word processed paper explaining what you did and where the various elements (EQ, panning, effects, etc.) occur so that I can hear them.

NOTE: For all projects, there is a ban on the use of overly repetitive patterns. This includes drum loops or repetitive beats and all but the most limited forms of ostinati.
