  2. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically...

    The hissing of high voltage transmission lines is due to corona discharge, not magnetism. The phenomenon is also called audible magnetic noise, [ 1 ] electromagnetic acoustic noise, lamination vibration [ 2 ] or electromagnetically induced acoustic noise, [ 3 ] or more rarely, electrical noise, [ 4 ] or "coil noise", depending on the application.

  3. Tinnitus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinnitus

    If certain problems are found, medical imaging, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), may be performed. Other tests are suitable when tinnitus occurs with the same rhythm as the heartbeat. [ 3 ] Rarely, the sound may be heard by someone other than the patient by using a stethoscope , in which case it is known as "objective tinnitus". [ 3 ]

  4. Audio feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_feedback

    Block diagram of the signal-flow for a common feedback loop [1]: 118 . Audio feedback (also known as acoustic feedback, simply as feedback) is a positive feedback situation that may occur when an acoustic path exists between an audio output (for example, a loudspeaker) and its audio input (for example, a microphone or guitar pickup).

  5. Hot mic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_mic

    A special case of hot mic is the microphone gaffe, in which the microphone is actively collecting and transmitting sound gathered near a subject who is unaware that their remarks are being transmitted and recorded, allowing unintended listeners or viewers to hear parts of conversations not intended for public consumption. Such errors usually ...

  6. Noise gate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_gate

    An Alesis Micro Gate noise gate. A noise gate or simply gate is an electronic device or software that is used to control the volume of an audio signal.Comparable to a limiter, which attenuates signals above a threshold, such as loud attacks from the start of musical notes, noise gates attenuate signals that register below the threshold. [1]

  7. Tinnitus masker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinnitus_masker

    The noise level is close to and usually somewhat louder than the perceived loudness of the tinnitus. The generated noise is designed to be a calming, less intrusive sound than the ringing or hissing of tinnitus. Depending on the loudness of the noise, tinnitus may be fully or partially masked.

  8. Radio noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_noise

    Radio noise near in frequency to a received radio signal (in the receiver's passband) interferes (RFI) with the operation of the receiver's circuitry.The level of noise determines the maximum sensitivity and reception range of a radio receiver; if no noise were picked up with radio signals, even weak transmissions could be received at virtually any distance by making a radio receiver that had ...

  9. Microphonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphonics

    When electronic equipment was built using vacuum tubes, microphonics were often a serious design problem. The charged elements in the vacuum tubes can mechanically vibrate, changing the distance between the elements, producing charge flows in and out of the tube in a manner identical to a capacitor microphone.
