Music Glossary: [Page 22]

Blend orchestra with synths/FX; align envelopes and articulation for cohesion. more

Steam, water intake, humidity control; avoid irritants and reflux triggers. more

Write parts natural to instruments' articulation and technique; avoid impossible leaps. more

Personal monitor systems isolating stage sound; reduce bleed and protect hearing. more

Ambient mics, pan for space, and careful limiter to combat occlusion/isolation. more

Passive pickups prefer high-impedance inputs; mismatches can dull tone or add noise. more

Time-domain reaction of a system to a short impulse; encodes reflections and resonances. more

Chart slang meaning a track entered or jumped up the chart rapidly, often flagged with a “bullet” marker. more

Promises that work is original/cleared and that you’ll cover losses if that proves false. Know the risk. more

Four-way coordination via ostinato + reading grid. more

Tala cycles (teental, rupak), claps/waves, tihai endings for rhythmic cadence. more

Independent-spirited rock/pop emphasizing originality and alternative aesthetics. more

Personal monitoring using wired or wireless packs. Reduces stage volume, improves clarity; requires careful gain staging and RF planning. more

Channel-by-channel list (source, mic/DI, stand, phantom) for patching and gain staging. more

Visual/social platform with Reels; useful for teasers, behind-the-scenes, and fan engagement. Instagram more

Consistent placement and awareness of spill/phase. Combine DI + mic wisely; mark positions on mats/tape for repeatability. more

The specific combination of instruments used in a work or movement. more

Stereo interleaved files for finals; consolidated multitrack stems start at bar 1 for easy re-alignment. more

Berne Convention provides minimums and national treatment; local law still applies. more

Re-recording a part (interpolation) avoids master use but still requires publishing clearance. more

Using familiar song openings to remember interval sounds (e.g., “Here Comes the Bride” = P4 ascending). more

Training to recognize the distance between two notes (melodic/harmonic). Start with perfects and majors/minors, then add tritones. more

Associate intervals with famous tune openings; wean off landmarks as skill grows. more

Identifying distances between pitches (melodic/harmonic); foundation for transcription. more

Sing up/down specific intervals from a reference pitch to connect ear, voice, and instrument. more

Adjust string length and height for tuning accuracy and playability; check relief and nut slot depth. more

In free field, SPL decreases 6 dB per doubling of distance from a point source. more
