Question

Name and describe at least five of the basic sound editing operations that most multimedia producers use.?

Answer 1

The basic sound editing operations that most multimedia procedures needed are foloowings:

1. Multiple Tasks: Able to edit and combine multiple tracks and then merge the tracks and export them in a final mix to a single audio file.

2. Trimming: Removing dead air or blank space from the front of a recording and an unnecessary extra time off the end is your first sound editing task. Trimming is typically accomplished by dragging the mouse cursor over a graphic representation of your recording and choosing a menu command such as Cut, Clear, or Erase.
3. Splicing and Assembly: Using the same tools mentioned for trimming, you will probably want to remove the extraneous noises that inevitably creep into
recording.

4. Volume Adjustments: If you are trying to assemble ten different recordings into a single sound track, there is little chancethat all the segments will have the same volume. To provide a consistent volume level, select all the data in the file, and raise orlower the overall volume by a certain amount. Don’t increase the volume too much, or you may distort the file.

5. Resampling or downsampling: If you have recorded and edited your sounds at 16 bit sampling rates but are using lower rates you must resample or downsample
the file.

6. Equalization: Some programs offer digital equalization capabilities that allow you to modify a recording frequency content so that it sounds brighter or darker.
