1. DAW-based production tasks using 16 bit/44.1kHz, 125 bpm; practical sections on drum quantisation, synth fills, MIDI pitch bend, waveform drawing, and binary-to-decimal conversion
2. Creative sound design: synth patch matching from reference audio using square waves, pitch bend, amplitude envelope, modulation, and velocity-sensitive filtering
3. Bass and synth audio editing: effect identification, automated parameter modulation, amplitude envelope variation, and synth alignment with bass in specific bars
4. Vocal editing and processing: pitch correction with custom scale, harmonised backing vocal creation, unsuitable condenser mic switch evaluation, stereo noise removal, and rhythmic gating via sidechain
5. Final mixdown tasks: stereo automation (panning, reverb, delay), level balancing, gating, RMS vs peak metering, audio artefact control, and mix export with format constraints
6. Section B extended essay: evaluation of compressor, EQ, and delay plug-in inserts for rock vocals, considering instrumentation, mix clarity, genre standards, and suitability of processing chains within 120 bpm rock context
