Audio Engineering Fundamentals
Learn the foundations of Audio Engineering!
To use a sound system properly for recording or for sound reinforcement is not as easy as it seems. Many elements are involved: the physics of sound, the acoustics, the characteristics of the equipment, its connections and the way it's operated. All of this has to be understood to get a proper result: good sound.
Sadly, it's very common to find systems out there that sound "bad". It is not normal for a sound system to create feedback or distortion. Neither is that a system should hurt our ears or sound with lack of clarity.
With the proper training, we can learn to use a sound system to avoid all these annoying problems. Besides of that, we can extend the life of our audio equipment for years.
In this course, you will learn the Fundamentals of Audio Engineering. This will be your first step to understand any kind of sound system. You will know the basic "blocks" or stages in any audio system, its function and applications.
You will know the logic to connect and adapt a sound system according to your needs. For example, how to connect microphones, instruments of music players; how to expand a sound system or what's the next piece of gear that you may need to improve the sound.
Sound systems evolve, brands and models change but fundamentals don't. The basics of sound engineering remain the same, if you learn these concepts you will understand any audio system: analog, digital, vintage or modern!
You will learn topics, like:
Sound and audio
Frequency, hertz and decibels (dB)
Sound pressure level and its importance
Types of microphones
Preamplifiers and audio processors
Systems and mixers
Power amplifiers and crossovers
Kinds of loudspeakers and its applications
Cables and connectors
Loudspeaker arrays, pros and cons
You will also identify the causes and solutions of common problems in sound systems:
Feedback
Noise
Distortion
Misuse of microphones
This will help you to avoid damages in the equipment (or people!) and to improve the audio quality.
Sound systems are very important for the modern world. We can find sound systems in many different situations, like:
Concerts
Recitals
Schools
Theatres
Home studios
Houses of worship
etc.
This course is an ideal start for anyone who wants to learn about audio engineering and to operate pro-audio equipment properly. The course is also useful for technical staff that already have practical knowledge but lacks the basic theory of sound and audio.
Current students comment:
"Such a clear explanation of the sound and its energy, it will definitely useful to music producer's & ofcourse for all the audio enthusiastics. Thank you for this material." Shanjay K.
"The course is very comprehensible, I've taken other beginner level courses on audio engineering but I couldnt completely understand how crossovers worked until I took this one, along with a couple of other concepts that I just couldn't fully grasp before. I'm very satisfied with the course and will for sure take other ones if they are available. Thank you for your hard work Marco!" Andrea Mendoza.
"Perfect for giving you a good foundational understanding of basic audio concepts and sound systems before diving deeper into the world of music production." Kyle S.
The course has been carefully designed to be a self-paced, step-by-step process right from the beginning, so you won't need any previous knowledge. You can even study a pair of lessons in just 15 minutes a day!
You will be guided by a certified audio instructor (Meyer Sound, Avid, Yamaha), with more than 18 years of teaching experience at all levels, from seminars to college-level classes and a top instructor on Udemy, so academic quality is guaranteed. Join more than 12,000 students worldwide and learn more about audio!
If you want to enter the world of audio engineering from the ground up, this course is for you!
