This assessment is designed to reinforce what you’ve learned and ensure you’re ready to progress.

👉 Take your time and answer carefully.
👉 A passing score of 70% is required to move forward.

What is dynamic range?

The difference between the loudest and quietest parts of a signal

The frequency range

The tempo of a track

The pitch of a sound

None

What does a compressor do?

Adds reverb

Equipment Quality

Reduces the dynamic range of a signal

Changes tempo

None

What happens when a signal exceeds the threshold on a compressor?

It gets reduced in level (compressed)

It gets muted

It gets louder

It gets delayed

None

What is threshold in compression?

The output volume

The attack speed

The frequency range

The level at which compression begins

None

What is ratio in compression?

Amount of gain reduction applied once threshold is exceeded

Speed of compression

Frequency control

Volume level

None

What does attack control?

The frequency range

The pitch of sound

How fast compression starts after the signal exceeds threshold

How loud the signal is

None

What does release control?

How fast sound is recorded

How quickly compression stops after the signal drops below threshold

The EQ settings

The tempo

None

What is makeup gain?

Increasing output level after compression

Reducing volume

Changing pitch

Adding delay

None

What is over-compression?

Too much compression causing a lifeless or squashed sound

Not enough compression

Increasing dynamics

Adding reverb

None

10.

Why is EQ important in mixing?

It helps create clarity and separation between sounds

It increases tempo

It replaces compression

It records audio

None
