MIDI Week 7

This week I will be returning your Projects (Juno or Drums). I am happy that most were very well done! We will be listening to some of the best in class this week.

If you have not turned in your Project yet, get it in ASAP. You are losing points for each class period!

This week I will also be starting to give you Quiz 1. It is a hands-on, one-on-one demonstration of the skills we have covered so far. I will do as many as time permits each day this week and next after the instruction period. For a preview of the Quiz, go to my Learning Web page, it is in the folder marked "Tests and Quizzes". Make sure you understand how to do each item on the list.

We will also be working with the JV 1010 sound module on the workstations, and learning some more advanced features of DP.

Next week you will begin Project 2.
