The bluffers guide is aimed at anyone who would like to better understand sound and audio. It will demystify the myths and jargon by explaining the fundamentals in a simple and pragmatic way. Whether you are a technician or a researcher, a manager or administrator ....within an audio visual archive you will contribute to the processing of audio as we move from legacy to modern digital archive. Make sure you understand the decisions you are making. 

Part 1 of 2 complimentary training workshops.

In Part 1, we will use demonstrations to explore the relationship between frequency and pitch, amplitude and loudness, and harmonics and timbre. We will seek to understand how we quantify and measure sound and why this is important to audio quality and the way we archive content.
