-Background/Historical coverage of topic, and several proposals for an essential question.
Music has been influenced my technology since a very long time ago. The creation of the instrument itself was through new technology. Since the microphone was invented in 1876, digital technology started to influence the musical world, and digital advancements have been made since then. Things such as synthesizers, auto-tune, recording studios, and electric music composing programs have shown up on media everywhere. But it all boils down to the question, "How did computerized technology influence the music industry and culture?". Was the microphone the one that started it all? What was the most important instrument in vitalizing the computer technology in the music industry?
Paragraph focusing on one source.
Ruddick, Leon J. "Microphone Technique." Music Educators Journal 25.5 (1939): 29-30. Print.
The microphone provides an extraordinary amount of new opportunities to expand on audio recordings and their impact on society. Ruddick's "Microphone Technique" journal focuses on it's use in the classroom and. unlike many other sources, it shows what some of the limitations of the microphone are. The source focuses on or targets the audience that may have a low budget or isn't sponsored in some way. In other words crews from a school or when putting on a small local production. Common problems that are encountered when on a low budget with a microphone are, adequate monitoring, organization and management. The microphone has many perks because it records sounds and is more sensitive that the human ear. However there are also many negative things about that quality that are pointed out within this journal. There must be very careful preparation and setup before using the device and also the environment in which the microphone is in. These issues lead to the realm of acoustics and theater development. This source currently fails to explain how the modern microphone works because it was written in 1939, however it helps show the progress and the slow improvements that have been made in strides to offer higher quality recordings of sounds. It was previously discussed how amazing the microphone was and how it revolutionized all of computerized influence on music, however Ruddick helps us realize that it's not the easiest thing for common folk to use and take advantage of. There are a lot of inconvenient requirements in order to use the microphone and share recordings publicly.
