Synergetic Audio Concepts (SynAudCon), renowned worldwide for providing essential real-world audio education, has released its in-person seminar schedule for the remainder of 2011.
“SynAudCon Digital: Audio, Processing & Networking” is a three-day seminar that will be presented September 26-28 in Indianapolis.
The course provides a comprehensive introduction to digital audio, digital signal processing and networking. The materials presented shorten the learning curve for understanding everything from data formats to networked audio systems, with an emphasis on the practical.
SynAudCon will also present two one-day seminars at the upcoming LDI Show in Orlando: “Pro Sound Principles and Practices” will be offered on October 26. with “Sound System Alignment And Equalization” following on October 27.
“Pro Sound Principles and Practices” addresses the major aspects of making a sound system work properly, including interfacing, setting levels, and achieving good gain-before-feedback.
The course is for those new to sound systems, and is especially appropriate for those who already work in other technical fields. Attendees will learn how to apply what they already know to sound reinforcement in addition to learning new, essential principles.
“Sound System Alignment and Equalization” covers system gain structure, setting amplifier levels, configuring a digital signal processor and a logical, methodical equalization process.
This course picks up where day 1 (“Principles and Practices”) leaves off. Those who own a PC-based measurement system will especially benefit from the discussion of transfer function measurements and how to interpret them.
In addition, SynAudCon will offer the three-day “Sound Reinforcement for Technicians” (SRT) in St. Louis on November 14-16.
SRT includes hands-on exercises which allow attendees to use a tool kit (that includes meters and other items that are needed) to test and troubleshoot systems. The class also goes into detail on how to use modern dual-channel FFT measurement platforms.
On day three, SRT demonstrates the setup of a three-way triamped loudspeaker, including polarity testing, equalization, crossover selection and signal alignment.
