Snyder Presents at 141st Audio Engineering Society Convention

blog · 2016-09-26

img_0766At the 141st Audio Engineering Society Convention hosted in Los Angeles from 28th September – 2nd October 2016, Ohio University Lecturer Kyle P. Snyder presented his peer-reviewed paper, Understanding Project-Based Learning in the Audio Classroom: Using PBL to Facilitate Audio Storytelling.

According to Snyder:

One of the more prevalent buzzwords in education today, project-based learning is a natural fit for the audio engineering classroom. With students that thrive by working toward a common goal or “learning by doing,” this constructivist framework is worth examining as implemented by educators. This paper discusses project-based learning as implemented in an audio engineering classroom to facilitate audio storytelling and provides recommendations for faculty looking to implement project-based learning into their curriculum.

Snyder Named Audio Engineering Society Education Chair

news · 2015-11-08

Kyle P. Snyder, a Lecturer in Ohio University’s School of Media Arts & Studies was recently named Chair of the Audio Engineering Society Eduction Committee. Snyder was appointed to this position at the 139th AES Convention by AES President, John Krivit.

Snyder is excited to continue in his international service to the AES as Education Chair. According to Snyder, “the AES is home to engineers working in every aspect of audio and it’s incumbent upon us as educators to ensure we’re training students who are prepared to enter the new media economy. With more media created every day that requires high-quality audio, the AES remains a fantastic way for students to develop in their careers outside of the classroom.”

As Education Chair, Snyder’s duties include setting the multi-faceted and diverse agenda of student & career tracks for conventions and working with local, professional, and student sections worldwide to enhance their educations. Snyder will continue his work with the AES Student Delegate Assembly, comprised of delegate leaders representing more than 4,000 students worldwide, ensuring emerging engineers’ needs are met through enriching, educational experiences within the AES.

Snyder routinely teaches courses in music production, recording, mixing and mastering, critical listening, sound design for film and video, and live event production in the School of Media Arts & Studies and brings his long-standing commitment to audio education to both the classroom and his international leadership role within the Audio Engineering Society.

Snyder Presents At Fourth Annual Central Indiana Audio Student Workshop

news · 2015-09-13

ciasw_block_design_v2015The Central Indiana Section of the Audio Engineering Society hosted its Fourth Annual Central Indiana Audio Student Workshop, Saturday, September 12, 2015 on the campus of Ball State University, Muncie, IN in the Music Media Production studios.

At the workshop, Ohio University Lecturer Kyle P. Snyder presented the following sessions:

The Many Faces of Location Recording and The Intersection of Core Techniques

Location recording means many different things depending upon your particular craft, yet at the heart core competencies exist which are shared. Snyder discussed how techniques used, for example, in gathering ambience or recording on a film set can be applied to other location scenarios like recording an orchestra, and how these shared skills can help to broaden your engineering tool chest.

Snyder to Moderate Focal Press Author Panel at AES 137

blog · 2014-09-19

This year at the 137th Audio Engineering Society Convention, Focal Press will be hosting an Author Panel (complete details) on the main Project Studio Expo Stage where Focal authors will discuss “Mixing Perspectives: Tales of Achieving Big Studio Results on a Project Studio Budget.”

The panel will feature the likes of Mike Senior (Mixing Secrets & Recording Secrets for the Small Studio), Alex Case (Mix Smart & SoundFX), Jason Corey (Audio Production & Critical Listening), and David Miles Huber (Modern Recording Techniques, 7e). I’m particularly pleased to announce that Focal Press has once again asked me to moderate this panel of great authors, which I think will be a great session for all in attendance. I’ve worked with Focal Press for some time now and have always been impressed with the immensely high level of technical expertise that their authors bring to the table, and this panel is sure to further that reputation. It’s worth noting that the 137th AES Convention will bring other non-panel related Focal press from me as well, so stay tuned for that as well!

If you have questions for these authors, either for someone specific or in general on the topic of the author’s panel, I’d invite you to leave your question in the comments below (or via twitter directed to @KylePSnyder) as I absolutely welcome suggestions from our audience.

I hope to see you at the AES Convention, and I’d invite you to join us on Sunday, October 13th at 11am. For more details, be certain to consult your AES program.

Snyder Moderates Successful Focal Press Author Panel @ AES 133

blog · 2012-11-18

This year at the 133rd Audio Engineering Society Convention, Focal Press hosted an Author Panel on the main Project Studio Expo Stage where Focal authors discussed whether “project studios can really get pro results?”

The panel featured the likes of Mike Senior (Mixing Secrets for the Small Studio), Will Pirkle (Designing Audio Effect Plugins in C++), Jay Kadis (The Science of Sound Recording), Dr. William Moylan (Understanding and Crafting the Mix, 2e), and David Miles Huber (Modern Recording Techniques, 7e). I’m very grateful that Focal Press asked me to moderate this panel, which truly was a wonderful session for all in attendance.

Though we had only an hour, the panel engaged in an amazingly lively discussion which ran the gamut from engineer training and experience to distribution and equipment quality  today. We truly could have talked for hours, thanks in part to the fabulous questions submitted by our audience members ahead of time (thank you!) and were very privileged to speak to the sizable audience on Saturday, October 27. With any luck, we’ll see the Project Studio Expo as a permanent fixture at AES Conventions from now on so look for us to return next year. For now, I leave you with a few images from our panel.

As always, if you have questions that we didn’t get to as part of the panel, I’d invite you to leave them in the comments below reach out or via twitter @KylePSnyder.
