Drum Sound and Drum Tuning Bridging Science and Creativity

Drum Sound and Drum Tuning Bridging Science and Creativity

Drum Sound and Drum Tuning assists drummers sound engineers and music students in learning critical skills related to drum sound and achieving an optimised and personalised drum kit set-up. The book covers the essential theories of percussion acoustics and develops this knowledge in order to facilitate creative approaches to drum tuning and professional-level recording and mixing of drums. All aspects of drumhead vibration drumhead equalisation and resonant drumhead coupling are de-mystified alongside discussions relating to drumhead types drum shell vibration and tuning to musical intervals for different performance genres. The book develops drum sound theory and creative analysis into a detailed dissection of recording and production techniques specifically for drums including discussions on studio technologies room acoustics microphone techniques phase coherence and mixing drums with advanced digital audio workstation (DAW) techniques and creative processing tools. Drum Sound and Drum Tuning includes many practical hands-on exercises that incorporate example tutorials with Logic Pro and iDrumTune Pro software encouraging the reader to put theory into immediate creative practice and to develop their own listening skills in an informed and reflective manner. The book also documents primary interviews and opinion from some of the world’s most celebrated drummers music producers and sound engineers enabling the reader to connect the relevant theories with real-world context whilst refining their own personalised approach to mastering drum sound. | Drum Sound and Drum Tuning Bridging Science and Creativity

New Approaches to Decolonizing Fashion History and Period Styles Re-Fashioning Pedagogies

New Approaches to Decolonizing Fashion History and Period Styles Re-Fashioning Pedagogies

New Approaches to Decolonizing Fashion History and Period Styles: Re-Fashioning Pedagogies offers a wide array of inclusive global practical approaches for teaching costume and fashion history. Costume designers technicians and historians have spent the last several years re-evaluating how they teach costume and fashion history acknowledging the need to refocus the discourse to include a more global perspective. This book is a collection of pedagogical methods aimed to do just that with an emphasis on easy reference accessible activities and rubrics and containing a variety of ways to restructure the course. Each chapter offers a course description syllabus calendar course objectives and learning outcomes as well as sample activities from instructors across the country who have made major changes to their coursework. Using a combination of personal narratives examples from their work bibliographies of helpful texts and student responses contributors suggest a variety of ways to decolonize the traditionally Western-focused fashion history syllabus. This collection of pedagogical approaches is intended to support and inspire instructors teaching costume design costume history fashion history period styles and other aesthetic histories in the arts. | New Approaches to Decolonizing Fashion History and Period Styles Re-Fashioning Pedagogies

Dance and Light The Partnership Between Choreography and Lighting Design

Dance and Light The Partnership Between Choreography and Lighting Design

Dance and Light examines the interconnected relationship between movement and design the fluid partnership that exists between the two disciplines and the approaches that designers can take to enhance dance performances through lighting design. The book demystifies lighting for the dancer and helps designers understand how the dancer/choreographer thinks about their art form providing insight into the choreographer’s process and exploring how designers can make the most of their resources. The author shares anecdotes and ideas from an almost 50-year career as a lighting designer along with practical examples and insights from colleagues and stresses the importance of clear communication between designers choreographers and dancers. Attention is also given to the choreographer who wants to learn what light can do to help enhance their work on stage. Written in short stand-alone chapters that allow readers to quickly navigate to areas of interest Dance and Light is a valuable resource for lighting design classes wishing to add a section on dance lighting as well as for choreography classes who want to better equip young artists for a significant collaborative partnership. | Dance and Light The Partnership Between Choreography and Lighting Design

Small Signal Audio Design

Small Signal Audio Design

Small Signal Audio Design is a highly practical handbook providing an extensive repertoire of circuits that can be assembled to make almost any type of audio system. This fully revised fourth edition offers wholly new content on internally balanced audio design electret microphones emitter-follower stability microphony in capacitors and much much more. This book continues the engaging prose style familiar to readers as you learn why mercury-filled cables are not a good idea the pitfalls of plating gold on copper and what quotes from Star Trek have to do with PCB design. Learn how to: make amplifiers with apparently impossibly low noise design discrete circuitry that can handle enormous signals with vanishingly low distortion transform the performance of low-cost opamps build active filters with very low noise and distortion while saving money on expensive capacitors make incredibly accurate volume controls make a huge variety of audio equalisers use load synthesis to make magnetic cartridge preamplifiers that have noise so low it is limited by basic physics sum switch clip compress and route audio signals build simple but ultra-low noise power supplies be confident that phase perception is not an issue Including all the crucial theories but with minimal mathematics Small Signal Audio Design is the must-have companion for anyone studying researching or working in audio engineering and audio electronics.

Small Signal Audio Design

Small Signal Audio Design

Small Signal Audio Design is a highly practical handbook providing an extensive repertoire of circuits that can be assembled to make almost any type of audio system. The publication of Electronics for Vinyl has freed up space for new material (though this book still contains a lot on moving-magnet and moving-coil electronics) and this fully revised third edition offers wholly new chapters on tape machines guitar electronics and variable-gain amplifiers plus much more. A major theme is the use of inexpensive and readily available parts to obtain state-of-the-art performance for noise distortion crosstalk frequency response accuracy and other parameters. Virtually every page reveals nuggets of specialized knowledge not found anywhere else. For example you can improve the offness of a fader simply by adding a resistor in the right place- if you know the right place. Essential points of theory that bear on practical audio performance are lucidly and thoroughly explained with the mathematics kept to an absolute minimum. Self’s background in design for manufacture ensures he keeps a wary eye on the cost of things. This book features the engaging prose style familiar to readers of his other books. You will learn why mercury-filled cables are not a good idea the pitfalls of plating gold on copper and what quotes from Star Trek have to do with PCB design. Learn how to: make amplifiers with apparently impossibly low noise design discrete circuitry that can handle enormous signals with vanishingly low distortion use humble low-gain transistors to make an amplifier with an input impedance of more than 50 megohms transform the performance of low-cost-opamps build active filters with very low noise and distortion make incredibly accurate volume controls make a huge variety of audio equalisers make magnetic cartridge preamplifiers that have noise so low it is limited by basic physics by using load synthesis sum switch clip compress and route audio signals be confident that phase perception is not an issue This expanded and updated third edition contains extensive new material on optimising RIAA equalisation electronics for ribbon microphones summation of noise sources defining system frequency response loudness controls and much more. Including all the crucial theory but with minimal mathematics Small Signal Audio Design is the must-have companion for anyone studying researching or working in audio engineering and audio electronics.
