Louise ("Lulu") Brooks in Pandora's Box at Heritage House

Thursday, June 28 

2 & 7 p.m.

In the film which made her a household name, Cult Goddess Louise Brooks plays the liberated Lulu, an irresistible vamp whose siren call lures all around her to their doom in a whirlpool of lust and greed.

Far ahead of the tastes of the time, G.W. Pabst's PANDORA'S BOX initially received scathing reviews due to the transgressive sexuality portrayed onscreen. However, for contemporary viewers, Pandora’s Box exudes a smoky sensuality in every frame and is now regarded as a masterpiece.

The Studio: Mixing Audio & Post Production for Teens & Adults, Monday, June 25, 2018

The Studio: Mixing Audio & Post Production for Teens & Adults

Valid library card and class registration required. Space is limited. 

ABOUT THIS CLASS:
Mixing Audio & Post Production
Monday, June 25th

5:00-7:00pm

Mixing the audio captured in a recording session is one of the most important components of the music production process. Yes, the record should already sound 80% like what the final product will sound like after the band has left the studio, but that last 20% missing is where the mix engineer comes into play. After the recording session is complete, the mixing engineer will take all of the audio from the recording session and mix it together to sound its absolute best. Think of it this way, a mix engineer's job is to enhance the sound in a way that makes the song sound like something you'd want to pay money for. Although this is a more challenging part of the process, we are offering this program to advanced learners that are want to take their recordings to the next level!

Topics Covered

• Creating a Mix Session
• Equalization (EQ)
• Signal Chain
• Gain Structure
• Aux Sends
• Compression and Side Chain Compression
• Effects
• Sub Mixing
• Gating
• Basic Mastering

Space is limited. Classes are for ages 12+.

Mixing Audio & Post Production in The Studio is brought to you by The Chattanooga Public Library, in partnership with local education non profit Dynamo Studios.  The Chattanooga Public Library's recording studio is made possible through grants from The Lyndhurst Foundation, The Benwood Foundation and the Friends of the Chattanooga Public Library.
