Sound level meter

treatment program that differed from the LSVT only in that it emphasized high respiratory effort over high respiratory-phonatory effort. The results of this comparison showed that while LSVT resulted in greater improvements in sound pressure level (SPL) over the alternative program, the other program still contributed to patient improvement in vocal loudness. Since vocal loudness was able to be improved without the phonatory emphasis highlighted in LSVT program, the researchers wished to examine the possibility that the improvements found through the use of LSVT are the result of extraneous…

Rory to stay at his place with him. This is the type of behavior that we see in stage two. Both Logan and Rory are receiving something out of the exchange and thus it is fine for them to have an affair. Kohlberg states that in these stages, higher levels of reasoning also contain the understanding of the lower reasoning stages. This “hierarchical integration” is due to the fact that these stages always move forward (Kohlberg & Hersh, 1977). Regression is only possible in cases of extreme…

I have made an abundant amount of change since I’ve reached level two. I have had to make many changes to my behavior before being able to reach this level. One of my main problems was lying which I have had trouble with before I came to Eckerd and stealing as well which I’ve worked on also. When I leveled up I was faced with problems within the group and problems I faced before I leveled up like arguing with my staff and peers. Since leveling up I learned to deal with these situations and…

The orientation of the poem occurs between stanzas one and three and these introduction stanzas are used to describe the highwayman, his situation with Bess and the setting of the poem. The first stanza is an informing introductory paragraph for the poem because of its spooky, mysterious tone. In the first stanza, there are frequent metaphors used to describe the setting, for example; ‘The road was a ribbon of moonlight, looping the purple moor’ (line 3). The whole of the first three stanzas are…

synthesiser, main features are 3 controllable oscillators (VCOs), a noise generator, 2 inputs, ring modulator, low pass filter, reverberation level meter, trapezoid envelope generator, and stereo outputs. The another feature that stands out in this synth, is Matrix plugboard. This board has X and Y axis which corresponds to inputs and outputs. This matrix allowed musicians…

Chapter 2 INTRODUCTION TO NOISE 2.1 SOUND: Sound is a form of energy that produces a sensation of hearing in our ears. Sound is produced by vibrating objects. The matter or substance through which sound is transmitted is called a medium. It can be solid, liquid or gas. Sound moves through the medium form the point of generation to the listener. When an object vibrates, it sets the molecules of medium around it vibrating. The…

“unwanted sound or loud discordant or disagreeable sound or sounds.” (HSA). When “vibrations are transmitted through the air in the form of waves, they strike the ear, these waves produce the sensation of sound” (How Stuff Work). Our ears are divided into three sections each section with its own parts and functions play their part in enabling us to hear a noise or sound. The outer ear collects and carries vibrations (sound) to the middle ear where it is amplified allowing the inner ear to hear…

Jameson Marvin does an excellence job in explaining how the process conductors use to achieve the highest level of performance. He begins by saying, “Mastering choral ensemble – a unified sound image of the whole – is the foundation upon which enlightened, communicative, and inspiring performance takes place.” He explains that there is a process to achieving this mastery, and it is based off of mental-aural image, which is a vision of what the music should sound like. In this chapter, Marvin…

“Fishhawk” was the first poem of the Classic of Poetry, the earliest poetry collection of East Asia (p.1322). In contrast to many poems in the “Airs of Domain” that propagated Confucianism, “Fishhawk” is a simple love poem. The poem revolves around a young man who was “tormented by his desire for a girl”(p.1322). While this poem is labeled as a “romantic folk song”(p.1322), the good use of literary elements, syntax, and language added a bit of tint to the love story. The author used a series…

Fathers are an essential aspect in the lives of their daughters. A father ultimately holds the responsibility of protecting their daughters, demonstrating the many duties of a man, and treating their daughters like a prize possession. The dependency that young daughters have on fathers affects their mindsets, self-esteem, and futures. In the book, Best of the Best American Poetry, a handful of the poems express the avid role of fathers in a person’s life. According to Margaret Atwood, the sonnet…
