Practical Applications of Audio Engineering
Audio for Theater examines the components of a typical theater sound system: wired and wireless microphones, mixing consoles, speakers and their placement, intercom and stage announce systems, playback systems for sound effects, and power sources. A section on troubleshooting covers common problems such as feedback, buzzes and ground loops. A significant portion of the program examines the variety and differences in microphones and helps students understand how to use the "right tool for the right job."Audio for Theater does not teach acoustic and electronic theory, but focuses on the practical aspects of what an audio engineer needs to know to survive in today´s live entertainment environment and particularly in your theater.
