As you can imagine by now, your homework is to capture a number of field recordings and soundscapes. Do These steps one at a time. It looks like a lot but break it into “baby steps.”
You should then audition these recordings and select two 60-90 second selections. Find your favorite parts of all your recordings.
The first of these selections should be a soundscape, that is distanced from any single event. This means you are trying to capture everything you hear.
The second should either be a field recording that;
These selections should be normalized to -6 dBFS. After normlaizing, you still may need to lower the gain if the track is clipping–when you play the track, do you see the signal hitting red? This is too loud.
These selected tracks should have a fade-in and fade-out applied!! It is painful to push play and audio to smack you in the eardrum. Having a fade allows a recording to start smoothly.
Take a screenshoot of your reaper session. I should be able to see your imported tracks clearly.
These tracks should be rendered out as a **timeline-selection, ensuring they are between 60-90sec. With file format .wav files, at 44100 kHz, 24bit
Then upload the exported stereo files to Canvas.
