 Pessoal, a universidade de Rochester abriu o curso de "Fundamentals of Audio & Music Engineering" gratuitamente no coursera.org :

 https://class.coursera.org/audiomusicengpart1-002

 Resumo do curso:

Week 1

Lesson 1: Introduction to wave propagation, simple oscillating systems, sound pressure, sound waves, the speed of sound, wavelength, frequency and wavenumber, sound pressure level, and auditory directional cues.

Lesson 2: Electronics fundamentals - charge, current, voltage, resistance, Ohm’s law, DC circuits, finding currents and voltages in simple circuits

Week 2

Lesson 1: Reflection and absorption of sound, resonances in air columns, resonances in enclosures and rooms, diffraction of sound, reverberation.

Lesson 2: Power, impedance matching, operational amplifiers, voltage buffer, inverting amplifier

Week 3

Lesson 1: Mathematical fundamentals for AC circuit analysis, phasors

Lesson 2: AC signals, capacitors, inductors, impedance, AC circuits and AC circuit analysis, simple filters (high-pass, low-pass, band-pass)

Week 4

Lesson 1: Electric guitar electronics, pickup design, volume control circuits, tone control circuits, pickup placement, frequency content and tone, wah pedal, talk box

Lesson 2: Converting electrical signals to sound – loudspeakers.

Week 5

Lesson 1: Designing speaker enclosures, basic principles, interaction of speaker driver with the cabinet, why a cabinet at all?  Closed-box speaker design.

Lesson 2: The ported / bass reflex speaker design.

Week 6

Lesson 1: Overview of a simple guitar amplifier, preamp, volume control, tone control, gain and distortion, tube circuit distortion, power amp section.

Lesson 2: Building the guitar amplifier, how to solder, getting the amp to work - systematic testing and troubleshooting.


 Aproveitem! Tem muita coisa interessante!

Muito legal! Já me inscrevi! Obrigado pela dica.

Já tinha mencionado sobre esse curso anteriormente: http://www.handmades.com.br/forum/index.php?topic=5434.0

 Esses cursos abrem e fecham após as semanas de aula, então é sempre bom avisar! A última seção foi a do ano passado, fechou e agora abriu de novo.

 Um outro curso que eu queria ter feito mas soube apenas no final é o de introdução a eletrônica de potência:

 Os assuntos abordados possuem muito mais profundidade que na minha graduação (e olha que é uma "introduction"...). Vale a pena fazer quando abrir!

 Para quem tiver interesse, dá para se inscrever para receber um aviso quando abrir seções futuras.

 Um abraço,

 Eduardo
