This course is an introduction to the history and techniques of creating musical audio recordings in an analog environment. It focuses on methods of documenting music and principles of analog audio through hands-on demonstrations and exercises, critical readings and student writing and recording analysis. Topics include audio levels, preamplifiers and microphones, dynamic and spacial effects, console architecture, signal flow and usage of various historical formats of analog media (LP, cassette, DAT and audio tape). Readings and scholarly perspectives on audio and analog recording processes come from fields such as musicology, ethnomusicology and sound studies.

MUSC 341 Rock Lab and Lab 6 credits
This class combines performance and academic study of rock music. In the first half of the course, we will learn to perform simple songs in small-group coaching sessions with a polished public performance as a midterm goal. During the second half of the course, we will make recordings of these performances. Throughout the term, we will accompany performance and recording activities with readings and discussion about aesthetics, performance practice in rock music, and mediation of recording techniques, all extraordinarily rich topics in popular music studies. No performance experience is needed. The course will accommodate students with a range of experience. Students will be grouped according to background, interest, and ability. There is a required hands-on laboratory component, which will be assigned before the start of the course. In these smaller groups, students will perform, record, and work with sound in small groups. Work will include experimentation with electric instruments, amplifiers, synthesizers, microphones, recording techniques, performance practice issues, musical production, mixing, and mastering.
During registration, students will register for both the lecture and a corresponding lab section, which will appear on the student's academic transcript in a single entry.
