...History of Reverb and Echo in Audio Production Recording Natural occurring reverb goes further back than man on earth. Since before man, creatures and nature made sounds that created natural reverb and echo. But now in today’s age with men and the modern technology that they have created there are all sorts of ways to create reverb and echo. From big metal sheets to plug-ins in a DAW on a computer, engineers have found ways to incorporate and benefit from reverb and echo on a recorded audio track. But before skipping into today’s ways of recording reverb and echo let’s shed some light on what reverb and echo truly is and where it came from. Reverberation or as most people refer to it as reverb, refers to the way sound waves reflects of the surfaces around the sound source before it reaches the listeners ear. Reverb is basically a series of multiple fast echoes merged together so fast that the human ear cannot separate the sound into a delayed distinct duplicate sound. When hearing exact duplicates of the sound is when it becomes echo. In the early days of radio, they would send the radio signal through a line miles and miles away and bring it back. An easy way to hear reverb is to enter an empty room and clap. Immediately after the clap the person would hear the decaying sound of the clap; that is reverb. Recording reverb in the early days was as simple as just backing up a microphone from your sound source to reach the right amount of reverb you were looking for. There...

...Just another Breakfast The candle-light fluttered upon his face, lighting his sculpted features passionately. His lips were the most perfect shade of rose, matching his faint blush perfectly. Long eyelashes cast shadows across his skin, almost as feminine as a princess’. He looked into my eyes, grazing my face with a tender breath. My own caught in my throat, and I really cannot finish this god damn book With a groan, I crumple up the piece of paper in my hand and toss it to the floor, muttering about deadlines and bards and the Gods know what else. I lean back in my chair, rubbing my temple in frustration; it’s been a month or so since I’ve been hired by the travelling band of entertainers, but my work’s not been up to its usual standards. I hiss, before throwing myself to my feet and walking out of my caravan. I shield my eyes from the blinding sun with a raised hand, looking around the camp. Children run across the fields, tripping each other with sticks before jumping away again. Women sit in circles around barrels of water, nattering about their husbands while washing their family’s clothes. Their dark eyes flicker to me, and they wave good-morning before going back to their daily duties. I reply in kind before turning away, looking at the men of our troupe. Erik stands at the campfire, turning last night’s hunt on the spit. We nod at each other and I approach him, folding my hands into my pockets. “Morning, Erik,” I say. He grunts a reply, his eyes already back...

She also takes charge in a scare factor way. “but screw your courage to the sticking-place, and we’ll not fail..” “If he do bleed, I’ll gild the faces of the grooms withal, For it must seem their guilt.” Speech She shook off the death of the king, it doesn’t seem like she felt guilty for her actions. “a little water clears us of this deed: How easy is it then!” Thoughts Lady Macbeth does what she believes that her actions are the best according to her own beliefs.

...the humidity, the heat capacity of turkey meat, etc...... If you did a lot of math and got an answer of either 4 seconds or 2 months, you should probably suspect you did something wrong. If your answer was 8 hours, that could seem reasonable given what you've likely observed with popsicles and snowmen. So, the point is, you have to apply some common sense and check your answer. You'll be given more credit on the HW (and in life in general) for admitting your answer seems wrong based on simple logic. Explaining your logic and admitting you got tripped up by the calculation is better than standing by an answer that really make no sense at all. Altimeter measurements. 1) The basic principle of satellite altimetry is similar to that of acoustic echo sounding from ship. A radar pulse is sent out, it reflects off the ocean surface and returns to the satellite. The speed of the pulse and the round trip travel time are then used to determine the distance between the satellite and the sea surface. Lets say the JASON-2 satellite is orbiting roughly 1300 km above the reference ellipsoid of the earth. It sends...

...ECHO FIELD TRIP On this wonderful tour, I learned a large amount of sustainable agricultural approaches. Crop rotation was one of them. It’s where the farmer grows different crops in the same field, in succession. Apparently, there are repercussions to planting the same crop over and over. This avoids those challenges. One challenge in particular is reducing the pest issue that most farmers face. These pests usually explode in population due to the continual availability of their food source. These pests tend to prefer one certain crop and by changing it yearly, the pest population stays down. These farmers also tend to plant crops that replenish the nutrients in the soil. Crops like soybeans and legumes reduce the need for the farmers to use fertilizer because it keeps the soil healthy. Farmers also use a method called “cover crops.” This method involves always having something growing in the soil. This prevents the soil from eroding, the weeds from growing, and it improves the quality of the soil. You will also see a large amount of farmers introduce “pest predators” onto their fields. Insects, birds, and spiders eat a lot of the pests that terrorize the crops of these farmers. These are just a few of the sustainable methods farmers use to keep their farms afloat. The biggest problem farmers’ face is the fact that there is an overgrowth of these pests. These pests are evolving and some pesticides are failing to work at this point. This forces farmers to introduce predators...

...Just last month, the US senate unanimously passed a bill (97-0) that many proponents agree may significantly improve the delivery of healthcare to people who live in rural America. The Expanding Capacity For Health Outcomes (ECHO) act was initially developed and introduced by Senators Orin Hatch (R-Utah) and Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii). The bill has garnered complete bipartisan support among senators and lawmakers with the hope that this model will markedly improve healthcare services and delivery where there are a few or no healthcare workers. The aim of the ECHO act is to integrate the use of technology to help deliver and educate with the help of a collaborative model. The model offers dynamic interactions with specialists through teleportals 24/7 in any part of the country. Over the past few decades, there has been a major decline in available health services with many healthcare workers moving away to urban cities. Patients with acute and chronic problems often had to travel miles to see a healthcare provider to reach specialists working in cities. Senators Hatch and Schatz first became aware of this problem in the rural areas of their respective states a few years ago. They quickly became aware that many Americans living in rural areas where to seek to travel; and a better option would be was to deliver healthcare to them. They proposed a bill in...

... In the song "Five More Minutes" written and sung by Scotty McCreery, the use of fundamental writing techniques is employed to greater impact the influence of the song; as well as the rest of the album it is a part of. Ethos, Pathos, Logos, and Kairos are all tactfully used to help influence the listeners. McCreery verbally constructs a beautiful picture of, what could be, essentially any person's life. Throughout the entire song, it is as if he is shaping and molding the perfect dream, prepared to fill the listener with a wistful memory. As most country music generally seems to go, this song follows the progression of life and the longing to relive favored moments. The rest of McCreery's album is closely written around this theme as well. "…Can't you give me five more minutes, Time rolls by the clock don't stop, I wish I had a few more drops, Of the good stuff, the good times, oh but they just keep on flying, Right on by like it ain't nothing, Wish I had me a pause button, Moments like those Lord knows I'd hit it, And give myself five more minutes…" He effectively uses Pathos by methodically and meticulously pulling at the listeners heart-strings. He emphasizes the fact that time is elusive and is a force that does not stop for anything. He finds the single string that inevitably unravels the rest and pulls them into his beautiful picture; creating a woven masterpiece. Expanding upon McCreery's skill with his descriptive lyric writing, he really hits home with the...
