  2. Human voice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_voice

    The human voice consists of sound made by a human being using the vocal tract, including talking, singing, laughing, crying, screaming, shouting, humming or yelling. The human voice frequency is specifically a part of human sound production in which the vocal folds (vocal cords) are the primary sound source.

  3. Physics of whistles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_whistles

    A whistle is a device that makes sound from air blown from one end forced through a small opening at the opposite end. They are shaped in a way that allows air to oscillate inside of a chamber in an unstable way. The physical theory of the sound-making process is an example of the application of fluid dynamics or hydrodynamics and aerodynamics ...

  4. Microwave auditory effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_auditory_effect

    The microwave auditory effect, also known as the microwave hearing effect or the Frey effect, consists of the human perception of sounds induced by pulsed or modulated radio frequencies. The perceived sounds are generated directly inside the human head without the need of any receiving electronic device.

  5. Speech production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_production

    Human vocal apparatus used to produce speech. The physical structure of the human nose, throat, and vocal cords allows for the productions of many unique sounds, these areas can be further broken down into places of articulation. Different sounds are produced in different areas, and with different muscles and breathing techniques. [28]

  6. Sound effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_effect

    The sound of a bullet entering a person from a close distance may sound nothing like the sound designed in the above example, but since very few people are aware of how such a thing actually sounds, the job of designing the effect is mainly an issue of creating a conjectural sound which feeds the audience's expectations while still suspending ...

  7. Articulatory phonetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articulatory_phonetics

    To produce sounds that people can interpret as spoken words, the movement of air must pass through the vocal folds, up through the throat and, into the mouth or nose to then leave the body. Different sounds are formed by different positions of the mouth—or, as linguists call it, "the oral cavity" (to distinguish it from the nasal cavity).

  8. Phonetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonetics

    How sounds make their way from the source to the brain. Audition, the process of hearing sounds, is the first stage of perceiving speech. Articulators cause systematic changes in air pressure which travel as sound waves to the listener's ear. The sound waves then hit the listener's ear drum causing it to vibrate.

  9. Sound recording and reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_recording_and...

    Sound recording and reproduction is the electrical, mechanical, electronic, or digital inscription and re-creation of sound waves, such as spoken voice, singing, instrumental music, or sound effects. The two main classes of sound recording technology are analog recording and digital recording .
