Week 19

hi there guyz and gals and this my 19th week at noise solution and this week my tutor is away performing with his band in Australia so ive got a temporary tutor who is nice and polite and doesn't stop talking sounds like me but older, what a great hook up my tutor has linked me with. Firstly we discussed what we do an how we got into music and soon after we got along and after that i started to show him how to play chords easily which i enjoyed showing him what i have learnt and to be able to share my knowledge with him. we also discussed the unit that im planning to do where i have to interview someone from the arts and my temp tutor works in the music industry so im planning to interview him i may ask him such questions as :

How did you get into music?

What do you do now?

Also, what advice could you give me as im going to attend a collage course in media is there any musical or technical advice you can give me for that?

What do you have planned for the future?

What instruments can you play and enjoy playing with?

We're hoping to do the interview in next weeks session.

We also looked at EQing today because my temp tutor is alot more clued up with eqing than my current tutor and he explained the whole spectrum of equalizing sound to me which i have found hard to understand the concepts of. We looked at the differences of DBs and Khz which stand for decibels and kilohertz which effect the way sound is produced we also looked at graphic eqs and a parametric eq. even though there is still alot more to learn i now at least understand alot more than i did.
