for beginners into engineer ...how do I get started ?

@AudioUniversity 2 года назад

@temitope odus, the best way to get started is to get the basic equipment you need and start practicing!

@BLAKECARPENTERMUSIC 2 года назад

@ToddWCorey1 3 года назад

Great stuff! I've been doing live sound for 25 years and never thought of using vowels. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks.

@AudioUniversity 3 года назад

Nice! It is also useful for ringing out wedges. The vowel sounds apply to the narrow-band tones of feedback too!!

I respect this comment so much. The biggest issue most sound techs have is that they sometimes feel they can’t be taught anything new. Idk how many times a church has had me fill in when a sound tech needed to travel or something. People are amazed at the improvement and practically beg the church to keep it the same forever. But When the sound tech gets back he/she’s not only extremely defensive but usually changes it back within a few weeks.

@johndennis9838 Год назад

@@gwillonthebass You are 100% right. I am a musician, and I do the production advance for the band, We travel with our own IEM monitor system and wireless vox mics. I deal with so many house sound guys. (I'm going to say guys, because when I've had to deal with women audio people there hasn't been issues, some good, some not so good but no ego BS ever)There are three types. 1. The Old Sound Guy that's been doing it forever and will drop any name of anyone in the industry that he's brushed up on. Most of them are as you describe. They know everything. They let you know this. They assume you are an idiot that knows nothing. They are bad at their job, & blame everything on every one & everything (your top $ equipment that they know nothing about)but themselves. It's a horrible, long anxiety ridden day (and bad sound)because they are unable to think someone might know something about their own sound, and what they need and require. 2. The Future good audio engineer. Usually a younger person that knows what they’re doing knows their gear, and is able to communicate in a back and forth way, and truly wants to make it a good show and do their best. 3. The Pro. Always the easiest to deal with. No Ego, enjoys their job. Everything on their end is already setup because you've communicated, and they've actually read though what you sent them. (unlike the first guy that knows everything)You can't wait to go back to that venue, because you know the sound will be great, You'll learn a thing or two, and it will be a fun, easy stress free day. So, going back to what this video is about, Listening is the key to good audio, in Every aspect.

This is my first Audio University video. I appreciate the production of your video. You weren’t assuming, arrogant, or pretentious like so many RU-vidrs are. The pace of the video was steady, and the content was fitting for this video, as opposed to cramming it all in one video. Much appreciation for you guys.

@MikeMike-kc9st Год назад

I have always done ear training as a musician, but the concept of listening as an egineer has somehow eluded me all of these years. I now listen to every song in a different way. I find myself scrutinizing mixes, compression ammounts, auto tune, etc., when it used to be purely about the songs themselves. As a novice producer with 30 years of being a musician, I can't believe how much free knowledge is available now days, thanks to the internet and folks like those at Audio University. This is probably my favorite channel to learn from. Thanks so much and keep up the great work!

@modernmusicstudio303 3 года назад

Ear training is something most musicians leanr either through experience or through courses. It is so much more important to producing music than people think! What a great lesson for something most people don't think about!

@mgmthegrand 3 года назад

"Associating vowel sounds to frequency bands" - I stumbled on to this discovery a few weeks ago! With my mouth I started emulating the sound of white noise with a filter sweeping through it and it finally clicked that I can use the connection between that sound and the frequency spectrum somehow to improve my mixing and ability to identify frequencies. I've been looking for content that could expand on this theory further and BOOM! Thank you, Audio University!

@AudioUniversity 3 года назад

@RaRa-qf5bf 2 года назад

Big cap right here.. you didn't know shit before watching this video.

@AFRoSHEENT3ARCMICHAEL69 2 года назад

This is seriously genius because words are indeed sounds and phonics of Vowels have free airflow so a constant push which opens up the mouth so this makes extreme sense beyond a basic comprehension. Like how consonants and consonance are similar.

@mortenjorck 2 года назад

Simply brilliant. Incidentally, a mnemonic occurred to me as I was watching, and now it will be impossible for me to forget at least 250 and 1k: “twOO-fifty” and “wAAhn-kay.”

I’ve seen a lot of ads (on RU-vid and other places) claiming to have a “revolutionary new way” to train your ear and it’s always been bunk. BUT THIS ACTUALLY WORKS FOR ME 0_0!! I’m legit excited, I’ve struggled for years to get ahold of “anchor points” to help me better understand where sounds are on the frequency spectrum and, suddenly even after just this limited exposure, I feel like I’ve gained traction on the whole concept. It’ll take some practice, but I think this will work! Thank you so much for describing this!!!

@iseeu-fp9po Год назад

This is such a smart way to look (listen) at/to this. I'm familiar enough with the frequency spectrum to be in the ballpark every time, but I usually find that I often tend to miss the problem area with about an octave, and so I end up doing the good ol' "sweep-around", which is a bit fatiguing at times. Especially when EQ'ing highly distorted guitars. Thanks!

if i cut 250hz, i'll most the time see if the octave needs cut too. finding the problem frequency is usually by boosting a frequency and sweeping it like you said you used to do till it matches what i'm aiming for. i like your suggestion of vowels and training your ear. great video.
