Sound Engineering Principles, Lesson 2

"Sound engineering principles" could be a reference to my civil engineering background, but here I'm actually talking about "sound engineering", that is, working with audio recordings.  In Lesson 2 here, check out an example of adding noise to a recording.

Why add extra noise to a recording?

If  you're in a noisy environment and the noise suddenly stops, you notice, usually with a sigh of relief.  If you record a person speaking in a noisy environment, which may be unavoidable, you have to find a way to make the background noise continuous when you edit that recording.  This lesson provides a sample of such a situation.  Click on the gray link below to listen.
