Taking Sound Design so far has been an interesting journey for me. There are quite a few things that I have learned in the first half of the class that I could apply to a real world setting and it is important to recognize those lessons and put labels to them.
The first lesson I learned is how to apply certain types of loops to a music project. I was unaware that garage band contained so many loops that could be applicable to many thing such as a song or a podcast of some sort. This is important for those who want to do sound editing of any time and are pressed for time. This means that if an individual could not get a certain sound effect on their own they could make use of the sound effects that come pre-installed with garage band.
The second lesson that I learned is how to label parts of the track. Labeling a track’s parts is important to the creator of a song or music product because it helps the creator identity what parts contain what if the creator happens to not touch their project for an extended period of time. This also helps any newcomer to the project understand what the music track is all about. Meaning If someone new is helping out with the project they would be able to identity what part contains what.
The third and most valuable lesson I learned was the difference between analog and digital sound. Analog is more natural whereas digital is not. This helps in real life because if one were to help create a piece of music for a band then the creator would need to know the difference between analog and digital sound. The video below best explains the difference.
To conclude it is safe to say I learned quite a few things and I am excited at the prospect of learning
more in the world of Sound Design in the Communications field of study.
