Упр.1 Модуль 7 Across the curriculum ГДЗ Spotlight 10 класс

Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Юлия Ваулина, Джунни Дули 10 класс, Просвещение: Текст задания в новом учебнике: 1 Listen to the extracts (A, B). Which piece do you think is produced using music software? by actual instruments? How do they make you feel? Modern Music Making Music technology sounds complicated right? Well, it’s not. Do you have an MP3 player, listen to digital radio or stream music online? Then you already use music technology every day. Anyone can make music these days thanks to music software. It’s easier than you might think. You don’t need a professional recording studio or even any musical instruments any more. Smartphones and computers can run software and apps which allow you to write songs and create music wherever you are. One piece of music software you can use is a sequencer program. This is a useful tool that uses synthesised sounds. You can start with a basic beat or rhythm and then add sound effects and vocals to make music on your computer. Using MIDI technology the computer plays it back so you can hear what it sounds like and then make any changes you want. It’s a great way to try out new ideas and play around with a piece of music until you are happy with it. You can alter the pitch and speed, too. Notation software also uses MIDI technology. Rather than putting sounds together to make music, this allows a more experienced musician to write the musical notes on the computer and play it back immediately as music with whatever instrument they choose. MIDI playback only gives an idea of what the piece will sound like on real instruments, but it is very helpful. Many modern composers for films and musicals use notation software. Mobile technology takes everything one step further. Now there are apps on mobile phones and tablets that you can use to make music. The great thing about this method of making music is that you can compose music on the go. By using sound recording software, you can record various sounds (such as a police siren or a train speeding past) while you are out and about with an MP3 recorder or your mobile. Then you can add keyboard and drum parts, guitar and vocal parts and then mix them all in a multi-track recorder. Music software allows amateur and professional musicians alike to explore ways of combining, looping and electronically processing sounds to create a unique piece of music. The possibilities are endless. Why don’t you give it a try? Текст задания в старом учебнике: 1 Listen to the sounds (A, B). Which is produced electronically? by actual music instruments? How do they make you feel? Think of the last tune you kept humming for a whole day. Chances are that it was one of the big hits. Now think about the music. Does it have an electronic sound? The use of electronic instruments has had a great effect on the development of 20th century music. Electronic instruments make use of a series of new techniques to produce sounds that are artificially r-i generated. Such techniques include: distortion (the process of changing the original sounds by sending lots of signals to parts of an electronic system, usually used in heavy metal music ; echo (the process of changing the original sounds by adding one or more repeats) and effects (the process of adding different effects . What is really impressive, though, is that with the development of music technology, you don’t even need electronic instruments to make music! The latest revolution in music is happening at home. Elizabeth Sharp from Brooklyn, for example, makes music in her apartment. She calls her studio ‘The Rock Closet’ and she records and mixes songs for her band with the help of an Apple Macintosh computer. Modern music making is largely based on the use of computer software programs, such as Reason by Propellerhead Software. Like Elizabeth, thousands of musicians around the world are taking advantage of this cheap, powerful technology. The technology is empowering people who aren’t musicians to compose and distribute their own music, armed only with their creativity and enthusiasm! Why don’t you give it a try, too? *Цитирирование части задания со ссылкой на учебник производится исключительно в учебных целях для лучшего понимания разбора решения задания.
