18/05/06 Digital Sound Processing Exam

Tomorrow afternoon I face a 2hr DCU exam on Digital Sound Processing. It’s funny, I found the lectures & lab sessions very difficult to follow, but once I started studying the notes intensively it all began to click. I’d love the opportunity to retake some of the Matlab practicals now it makes sense, as would I’m sure the rest of my class.
The exam tomorrow is all about Linear Predictive Coding, Cepstrum Analysis, Fundamental Frequency Estimation, SIFT Algorithm, the Auto Correlation Function, Human Hearing Perceptual Coding, Codebook Excited Linear Predication, Audio Masking, Critical Bandwidths and many more horrendous sound engineering terminologies.
All that said, I seem to understand it all-ish, and I’m keen to get tomorrow out of the way.

Some might say: it is better to give than receive? In the case of “sound” it is just an interface between the sender and the the individual at the receiving end. Technology matters not … if the message is not understood. Digital is fine ….or whatever, what about presbycusis etc? Hearing loss NIHL (noise induced hearing loss) due to high levels etc, is the problem not the technology? God go with you and your bytes………….to a quiet place.
