LEARNING AGENDA 1P<br />
PREREQUISITES FOR THE CHAPTER<br />
• Basic computer knowledge<br />
(operating a computer, managing files and folders audio formats, etc.)<br />
• Basic knowledge of music theory (semitones, octaves, rhythm, etc.)<br />
• contents of the theory part of chapter 1<br />
(it is Best to study one chapter at a time, starting <strong>with</strong> the theory and then<br />
progressing to the corresponding chapter on practical <strong>max</strong>/<strong>msp</strong> techniques.)<br />
LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />
SkillS<br />
• to Be aBle to use all of the Basic functions of <strong>max</strong>/<strong>msp</strong><br />
• to Be aBle to synthesize Both sequenced and overlapping sounds using sine wave<br />
oscillators, as well as square wave, triangle wave, and sawtooth wave oscillators<br />
• to Be aBle to continuously control the amplitude, frequency, and stereo<br />
spatialization of a sound (using linear and exponential envelopes for glissandi,<br />
amplitude envelopes, and the placement of sound in a stereo image)<br />
• to Be aBle to generate random sequences of synthesized sound<br />
• to Be aBle to work <strong>with</strong> and manage elements of sampled sound<br />
CompetenCe<br />
• to successfully realize a first sound study Based on the techniques you have<br />
acquired in this chapter, and save your work as an audio file<br />
