Alright, believe me or not, but I have not trained anyone in Sound before. So why don't we start like we start every other training?
Tell me what you know about sound ^^

Sorry about the late reply! D: I'll play a Christmas-excuse and hope it'll appease.
Well, 'sound' is a vibrating wave of pressure that travels through a medium. What we perceive as sound is not the original wave: it's gone through a transformation in our ear to make it 'understandable' to us. Every soundwave has a 'frequency' that describes how many cycles it has per second. A low frequency (Hertz) means a very low pitch, while the opposite is true for a high frequency.

Tell me about the various uses of Sound in battle, as ninjutsu and/or taijutsu.
Well, all solids can 'burst' if they're exposed to the right frequency, so that's one. Sound is a wave of pressure, of course, so it can easily go toe to toe with wind and other kinds of pressure. Fire, too.
Sound moves faster through water, but I don't think it affects water and other liquids as much as it does solids.
Then there's the fact that Sound, especially with the help of chakra, can do more than a little damage to an unlucky soul's brain. The ear, the inner ear in particular, is actually really fragile. It doesn't take more than a high-pitched sound to make people beg for mercy.
From the ear and in, it's basically a massacre: coordination, movement, balance, even perception, etcetera are all easily screwed with when one knows what tunes to play.

It moves faster through solids and liquids than gas.
The more solid an object is, the faster it moves. Thats why its easier to "burst" solids :p

Anyway, lets get started with the real training.
*snaps my fingers, releasing a really low frequency radio waves, making you go blind and disoriented*
Guess this is much hardcore than what Nero did to me. Your brain being fried by the RF will make it even more difficult to locate me because of you being disoriented.
You should regain your sight little by little each day.
Try sending sound to your ears, and try to find me, I'll start whispering now.
*jumps to a new location and starts whispering*
here kitty kitty kitty.

Electromagnetic radiation my ass ~.~
*I focus chakra into my ears and attempt to 'expand' my hearing over the area by amplifying and controlling the sounds that pass through my inner ear.*

Is this a type of sonar? Like what I learned in the Zatoichi Dojo? ._.

"sonar" is letting out sound and hear it when it bounces back from objects to locate the object. You could try to use that, but its a bit advanced, for now, just try to hear my footsteps and figure out where they are coming from.

*places a explosive note at my location and jumps away, having the loud noise of the explosion hurt Zero's ears*

Mugiwara-san, how do I avoid these terrible sounds when all I want to hear is you!?
*I focus chakra into my ears once more, attempting to precisely manipulate the scope of my hearing to 'block out' sudden and loud noises, all the while I scour the area for a rustle of leaves, a heavy breath or the sound of a footstep.*
Would that work?

Increasing your hearing is pretty basic, but blocking out unnecessary sounds takes a lot of skill and practice.
You not only need to focus sound into your ears to increase your hearing, but you also need to be able to focus your hearing onto things.

*as I jump around, I continue my lecture*
This is only the first part of the sound training, to be able to hear sound better than everyone else. The other part is to produce sound. That is the harder part to be honest, because anyone can focus chakra into a part of the body, although focusing sound into the inner ear is harder because its much smaller and a normal body part.

What we are doing now is the 2nd part of Inner Sonar Skill. Inner Sonar Skill works by you amplifying the sound you make when you breathe, and have it bounce off objects, and return to you. By doing that, you get an overview of the field, and by continuing to breathe and have it bounce off objects, you can continue to have overview, and if something moves, you can keep track of that.
We're gonna do the amplifying of the sound waves later, for now, we'll continue with the receiving end.

You are on the right track, yes.

Using my experience from the Zatoichi Dojo, I synchronize my breath and heartbeat with my chakra-flow, establishing an equlibrium. Maintaining the concentration of chakra in my inner ear, I attempt to amplify the sound of my breath through an infusion of chakra, using the Zatoichi-principle to make the chakra bounce back on contact with an object.

You have to remember when the sound bounces, it might bounce off two different objects at different places, so it might be hard to get a picture of where every thing is. Try to focus in one small area. Amplify it really hard so that you are able to see the sound waves slightly. Your sight should be almost back by now.

Using the same principle as before, I simply focus my chakra into a single area in front of me, putting more chakra into a smaller wave of sound to make it visible.

I've been taught this kind of 'sonar-principle' before ^^

Alrighty then. First we gonna start emitting and amplifying the sound, using ones mouth, then we'll move on to using our hands.
Using the same principle as the inner sonar, when you amplified your breathing, try doing the same by shouting.

Aren't we simply talking about infusing chakra into my voicebox and shouting.
Kinda like letting the chakra 'ride' the soundwave? Or are we talking about creating a completely 'artificial' soundwave consisting of more chakra and simply 'triggered' by my shout?

The first one. You simply enhancing your voicebox.

*enhanced shout comes out*
Good job. You know how to do it, you can practice and master it completely by yourself.

Next you want to use the same concept as with the shout. When you shouted, the chakra just rode the sound waves, this time you wanna create the waves using only chakra.
