Objective:
Participants will learn to bounce a MIDI sequence to a stereo audio file appropriate for burning to an audio CD.
Materials:
The instructor will use the included exercise and assets or provide an alternate MIDI exercise that the participants will bounce to an interleaved stereo audio file appropriate for burning to an audio CD.
Procedures:
The instructor will discuss and demonstrate…
the purpose and best practices of adding dither to a digital audio bounce;
the purpose and use of noise shaping;
available sample rates and bit depths;
consumer and industry standard sample rates and bit depths;
Red Book audio file standards;
available audio compression codecs and file types; and
the difference between multi-mono and stereo interleaved file types and their uses.
Class Activities:
Participants will complete Exercise 11: Bounce to Disk.

Topic 12: Composing to Picture
Objective:
The Participants will learn to important video to a DAW project, sync the video to the project timeline and export a new video file with accompanying music.
Materials:
The instructor will use the included exercise and assets or provide an alternate MIDI exercise that includes MIDI sequencing and video.
Procedures:
The instructor will discuss and demonstrate…
Internet sites where video files can be found for student projects;
applications available that can be used to rip DVD chapters to disc;
the “composing to picture” process;
the purpose of film and video frame rates;
the purpose and use of SMPTE timecode;
how to determine the frame rate of a video file;
how to add a SMPTE timecode burn to a video file;
how to import a video file into a DAW project;
how to set the DAW project frame rate and SMPTE start time; and
how to bounce a video project to a new video file.
Class Activities:
Participants will complete Exercise 12: Composing to Picture

Topic 13: Non-Linear MIDI Sequencing
Objective:
Participants will learn about non-linear MIDI sequencing and resampling.
Materials:
The instructor will demonstrate an Ableton Live set of their choice.
Procedures:
The instructor will demonstrate…
non-linear sequencing in Ableton Live (or Sonar) and facilitate a discussion comparing linear to non-linear sequencing;
demonstrate clips and scenes;
“resampling” by recording from Session view to Arrange view in Ableton Live;
MIDI mapping of clips and scenes, as well as synth and effect parameters;
triggering clips and scenes from a MIDI controller; and
non-linear sequencing as applied to live performance.
Class Activities:
Participants will compare and contrast the differences and pros and cons of non-linear sequencing.
