25 Questions

1. Music workstation/synthesizer that features a 128- voice PCM- based synthesizer with 6 effects processors & dynamic pads; Infrared D-Beam; Stereo sampler and full on - screen editing; Allows for 8 stereo audio tracks integrated with the internal MIDI

2. Initial few hundred milliseconds of samples are loaded into RAM & remaining sample length is streamed from the hard drive

3. Deal with the set- up and operating parameters for a MIDI device - Acknowledged by all devices in a MIDI system

4. Ability to play ONLY one note at a time; Often used for solo instruments (horns) - bass - portamento - slides - and trills

5. Status Byte (S) => Data 1 (D1) => Data 2 (D2)

6. Circuits on a synth that determine the character of the attack and release of a tone can be controlled; Controls how sound changes over time; Most commonly on amplifier circuit

7. MIDI Note #60 (Roland Standard)

8. Used as a modulation source; Usually below 20Hz (.01 - 10Hz); Most common waveform is the sine - though there is often a choice; Defines vibrato - tremolo - and wah; Allows periodic changes to sound

9. Used with very large sampled instruments on a software based system; Initial transient of a sample loaded into RAM and audio file is streamed from hard drive in real time

10. In MIDI - a sequence of 8 bits (enough to represent one character of alphanumeric data) processed as a single unit of information

11. Subtractive; Additive; Resynthesis; Frequency Modulation; Phase Distortion; Wavetable; Pulse Code Modulation; Granular; Graintable Synthesis; Physical Modeling; Analog Modeling

12. Most commonly used MIDI receive mode; Device receives only on an assigned selectable data; Ability to play MORE than one note at a time

13. Defines the lowest and highest note on a keyboard that an individual part is active

14. Basic Waveform; Source vibrates with simple harmonic motion

15. Maximum of 3 MIDI Slave Devices can be wired past the Master Device according to the MMA; All MIDI IN Ports are optically isolated to prevent hum - buzz - ground looping - and RF interference.

16. Allows using a pencil tool to input notes - define note value - and manually enter notes; Useful for parts too complex to play at desired tempo or due to a lack of performance ability

17. Physical sound waveform system that has repeating cycles

18. Technology advanced allowing for multiple tone generators in one keyboard or module; Revolutionized MIDI and sequencing; First appeared in 1985; Each channel is independent of the others; Equivalent to Omni Poly Off (x 16 channels)

19. Height (or loudness) of a waveform

20. Sample Dump Standard; Signal starts to degrade

21. Where samples are recorded or loaded when playing back from within a sampler; Erased when sampler is turned off so sounds must be stored on removable media; Static/

22. High Resolution; 14- bit parameter; (Coarse Tune X Fine Tune = 16 -384 Steps of resolution

23. Contains only the fundamental frequency and all of its odd- numbered harmonics

24. Serial

25. CMD+S
