實作課程

用電腦作曲

因舊版課程無指定課堂作業與考試，因此統整所有作業、講義、考試內容合併列出。

1	Pro Tools 與錄音室技巧基礎 Basic Pro Tools and Studio Technique	使用任何你可以操作的物件，錄製至少6個"單獨聲音"（喜歡的話，您也可以多錄一些），以及一個長一點的聲音物件（1-2分鐘）。將所有的聲音帶來，並錄進 Pro Tools 中。使用簡單的編輯功能來修整雜音，並適當的將它們排列起來。將這些聲音存成音效檔，轉換成 AIFF (「輸出至磁碟」），並燒成一張CD。 Using any equipment of any quality at your disposal, record at least 6 'single sounds' (you can record more if you like), and one longer sonic event (1-2 minutes). Take all your sounds and record them onto Pro Tools. Use simple editing functions to trim extraneous sounds and sequence them appropriately. Save the sounds as sound files, convert them to AIFF ('bounce to disk'), and burn a CD.
