Samples per Beat
General Example 1 1) Since 1 Beat is 60, we need to Divide 60 / 120 2) Since SR is 44100 we Need to Multiply that 0.5 by 44100 – 44100 x 0.5 = 22050 Samples per Beat Example 2 1) Since 1 Beat is 60, we need to Divide 60 / 103 2) Since…

Sample Rate
– a Sampling Frequency at 44.1kHz is the CD Standard, i.e. 44100 Times of Acoustic Information Occur Every Second – Tischmeyer Further States that Noise can be Added from 16000kHz Upwards (in a Skilful Manner) to Add Brilliance Instead Using Sample Rates Above 44 – when Too Many Samples Get Dropped you Get Quantization Errors…

Signal Flow
General – How to Preserve a Clean Routed Signal Inside a DAW 1) Processing Order – Pitch Correction Tools Need the Best Possible Audio Resolution to Work with, that is why they Appear on Top of the Routing Chain – EQ can also be Placed before a Compressor, but always Keep in Mind that Changing…

Spectrogram
General – Also called Spectrograph – a traditional Waveform is Displayed in 2D with Amplitude (Vertical) and Time (Horizontal) – but a 3D Spectrogram Shows Frequency in the Vertical Display, Amplitude as Height in 3D with Variable Brightness and Time Horizontal – Variable Brightness means, the Brighter the Display the Louder the Content – X-Axis…

Stereo Vectorscope
General – Measures the Stereo Field and Shows it on X and Y Axis – the 2 Lines Left & Right are at 45% and Define the “Safe Area”, i.e. as Long as the “Dots” Fill only this Area the Material is a “Safe In” Phase Stereo Signal The Polar S – Mode plots Dots…

Tape Machine
General – Tape Machine have the Character to Compress the High Frequencies – i.e. Rather Harmonic Compression (Not Classic Compression) Speed ips – Speed of the Tape in “Inches per Second” (Works with 15ips as Default) – How Quick the Virtual Tape is Drawn Past the Heads (ips = in Inches per Second) – Faster…

Tilt (RTA Analyser)
General – a Spectrum Analyser Shows the “Exact” Amplitude of all Frequencies of a Signal – the Amplitude of Low Frequency Content in a RTA Spectrum Analyser Shows More Information by Nature than in the High Frequency Content, thus to Match the Perceived Loudness (because Low Frequencies Need More dB to Meet Perceived Loudness in…
