Lesson 7 - Microphones. The helpful graphics here allowed me to understand more of how they work.

Lesson 8 - Mic techniques. Learned a lot in this one. The processing a mid-side recording is really interesting.

Lesson 9 - Monitors. All straight-forward info here. Good points about using in-ears instead of wedges for more freedom and less stage volume.

Lesson 10 - Dynamics Processing. A lot of info here. Found another error on a self-quiz but let the school know. Finally understanding knee better on a compressor.

Lesson 11 - EQ. Amazing people who developed EQ.

Lesson 12 - Midterm Quiz. - All good aside from a duplicate question and another question that doesn't finish it's thought so had to guess but got it correct.

I was watching a FOH mixer who found that the drums were clipping during the show. This was due to the drummer playing not as hard as he could have in the soundcheck. Good to know for future.
