1. Native systems are also known as Host-Based systems.
2. A DAW is a Digital Audio Workstation. It records, mixes and edits audio.
3. Pro Tools HD (TDM) is a non host-based system.
4. Bits are 0's & 1's in the binary numerical system.
5. Digital audio uses stepped, numeric increments to represent a signal's amplitude at a given time.
6. Sample Rate is the number of times per second an audio signal's amplitude is measured and converted into a number.
7. Frequency is measured in Hz or CPS (Cycles Per Second).
8. Dynamic range increases by 6dB when adding a single bit to to a samples' word length.
9. The number of bits used to describe the amplitude of a sample is called Bit Depth.
10. CD Sample Rate = 44.1kHz, Bit depth = 16 bits.
11. Pro Tools session files contain a "map" of all the elements associated with a project (including tracks, I/O assignments audio & video files, etc.)
12. Session files do not contain preferences. Preferences are machine based.
13. Regions are graphic representations of audio that point to an audio file.
14. The Pro Tools Mix, Edit and Transport windows are identifiable.
15. Wave cache files can be deleted without harming the session or your system.
16. Split Stereo & Interleaved Stereo files can be added to a Pro Tools session.
17. The Workspace in Pro Tools functions as a dedicated file system browser window used for managing media.
18. SD II audio files cannot be added to a Windows-based Pro Tools system.
19. MP3 is compressed using perceptual coding so that it requires less storage space.
20. 3 options to import audio into a Pro Tools session in its' Import Audio window include: Copy, Convert, Add.
21. Audio files added to a session from the import window are automatically stored in that session's file folder.
22. Audio files, MIDI tracks, Instrument tracks, Master fades & Aux Inputs can be identified in the Mix window.
23. Trimming a region with the trimmer tool is a non-destructive operation. This is true because any changes done with this tool can be undone.
24. A "zero crossing edit" is made at the exact location where the waveform passes through the zero volt line of an audio file.
25.
26. Fade Ins, Fade Outs & Crossfades can be identified on waveforms shown in the edit window.
27. VST plugins are native to Pro Tools
28.
29
30. HTDM plugins can only be run on TDM Pro Tools systems.
31. In Pro Tools, interleaved stereo files are primarily used for burning audio CDs or converting to MP3.
32. The Spacebar key is pressed in Pro Tools to start playback.
33. Audio data, MIDI data and automation data can be identified in the Edit window.
