Spill occurs when sound is detected by a microphone not intended to pick it up (for example, the vocals being detected by the microphone for the guitar). [3] Spill is often undesirable in popular music recording, [4] as the combined signals during the mix process can cause phase cancellation and may cause difficulty in processing individual tracks. [2]
To maximize gain before feedback, the amount of sound energy that is fed back to the microphones must be reduced as much as is practical.As sound pressure falls off with 1/r with respect to the distance r in free space, or up to a distance known as reverberation distance in closed spaces (and the energy density with 1/r²), it is important to keep the microphones at a large enough distance ...
Neumann KU 100 microphone used to record binaural sound. Binaural recording is a method of recording sound that uses two microphones, arranged with the intent to create a 3D stereo sound sensation for the listener of actually being in the room with the performers or instruments.
Negative indicate the echo is stronger than the original signal, which if left unchecked would cause audio feedback. The performance of an echo canceller is measured in echo return loss enhancement (ERLE), [3] [9] which is the amount of additional signal loss applied by the echo canceller. Most echo cancellers are able to apply 18 to 35 dB ERLE.
Microphones have a polar pattern describing their sensitivity as a function of the direction of the incident sound. Many microphones have an omnidirectional polar pattern which means their sensitivity is independent of the direction of the incident sound. Microphones with other polar patterns exist that are more sensitive in a certain direction.
An audio engineer with audio console, at a recording session at the Danish Broadcasting Corporation. An audio engineer (also known as a sound engineer or recording engineer) [1] [2] helps to produce a recording or a live performance, balancing and adjusting sound sources using equalization, dynamics processing and audio effects, mixing, reproduction, and reinforcement of sound.
A talkback microphone in a recording studio. In sound recording, a talkback system is the intercom used in recording studios and production control rooms (PCRs) in television studios to enable personnel to communicate with people in the recording area or booth.
Two bi-directional AKG C414 microphones set up in a Blumlein pair. Blumlein pair is a stereo recording technique invented by Alan Blumlein for the creation of recordings that, upon replaying through headphones or loudspeakers, recreate the spatial characteristics of the recorded signal.
