Year 11 Term 1 Lesson 9 Apply Audio Practical Assessment

You will take part in the rigging of an audio system. Each student in your group will be provided with the complete Audio Sound Block Diagram and will be given a specific audio component to install and check its correct operation on the audio mixing console. See below:

1.     An acoustic guitar with a DI
2.     2 vocal mics and stands (one for the vocalist and one for the backup vocalist)
3.     A fold back speaker for the performer and CD player


While you will be assessed individually (within the group), the component you are required to install will form part of the overall Audio Design, which must be as per the Sound Block Diagram. You will have the opportunity to take part in a discussion following the activity to ensure that the Audio Plan is correctly followed.


Revisit the checklist in your assessment task notice to ensure you have met and understand all of the assessable criteria.


Group 1:
1) Bump in and install the PA system
2) Balance and EQ the system
3) Bump out the PA system.


Group 2:
Complete the Peer Observation Checklist. Take photographs to document the PA system setup of your peers.  You will need no more than 8-10 photographs. Each photograph must address the checklist criteria. Tablets and cameras have been provided. Upload all photographs to your computer at the end of your observation session.


Group 3:
Complete general knowledge of audio to work activities from your assessment task notice. Please save your document at the end of this session.


Group 4:
Open your assessment task notice, copy and paste your sound block diagram and all photos. Make sure to crop and compress photos before pasting them into your assessment task notice. Fill in all empty fields, i.e. name, checklists, dates, etc.


Advice:
•    Please use your group time wisely
•    Stay with your groups throughout the assessment session
•    Adhere to time limits and session times
•    Communicate and work as a team
•    Observe WHS practices for your safety and the safety of everyone
