  After watching the 5:00pm local news I think that a segment related to the economy would be a good weekly addition to the  CVTV Show. I believe it is important to talk about the state of the economy seeing as our viewers are young adults who do not have a copious amount of money and would likely benefit from the information.

It would not be hard to obtain information on the current state of the economy, The segment would mostly be talking about the increase in prices of specific items or overall inflation. The only problem I see with this is that we would need to avoid getting political with a topic like this. As long as the segments are reviewed for political bias I think this type of report can become a very interesting and useful tool for CVTV viewers.

How does it affect sound recording? Changing the Dynamic range by compressing or expanding parts of the audio will change the way your audio is received this is specifically important with music. A lower compressed dynamic range will lead to a more similar volume level with all parts in a recording  Why is metering important?  VU meters are very good at representing the average of what is being produced and therefore they sacrifice exact accuracy to represent what the human ear will receive in a recording. It is very important to be able to control the volume for human ears and using a VU meter is the best way to accurately do this. How can it help us with our sound recording? Using Measurements from a Vu meter can be a good way to figure out which instruments to compress and how to ma...
