This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to create a final sound balance for a production. It applies to individuals who work creatively and collaboratively with sound engineers, sound mixers, sound editors and studio technicians to create a final sound balance for a range of recorded and live productions. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Evidence of the ability to: - create final sound balances that meet creative, artistic and production requirements - make adjustments so that sound balance and characteristics are within technical limits - work creatively and collaboratively with others on the creation of sound balances - use a range of industry current sound recording, production and playback equipment in line with production requirements and safety standards. Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must: - describe the production requirements that may impact ideas and decisions about options for creating sound balance - describe the principles and techniques used to achieve a simultaneous balance - explain the operational principles for available sound recording, production and playback equipment - describe the main techniques for evaluating the process used to create a final sound balance - explain the issues and challenges that typically arise when creating a final sound balance, and how to address them.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to: - sound recording, production and playback equipment - productions that require a final sound balance - production documentation - interaction with others. Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
