Authors: Gaston, Leslie

AES Convention 120 · Paper 6689 · May 2006

Abstract

Several university audio programs now incorporate multichannel, or “surround” sound into their curricula. In order to supplement these courses and lectures, many opportunities exist to incorporate hands-on demonstrations of concepts used for microphone techniques, mixing, monitoring, and mastering. This paper will give suggestions for different tactile strategies which can be used to illustrate concepts in multichannel audio, as well as other resources which may be utilized when doing preparation and research for teaching classes. Suggestions for homework and research topics for students will also be provided, along with recommended equipment needs.
