  2. Container compression test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Container_compression_test

    The container compression test measures the compressive strength of packages such as boxes, drums, and cans. It usually provides a plot of deformation vs compressive force . It is commonly used to evaluate shipping containers made of corrugated fiberboard as well as wooden boxes and crates .

  3. Drum tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_tuning

    Drum tuning is the process of adjusting the frequency or pitch of a drum. Although most drums are unpitched instruments, they still have a fundamental pitch and overtones . Drums require tuning for a variety of reasons: to sound good together as a kit, to sound pleasing as an individual drum, to achieve the desired amount of ringing and ...

  4. Parallel compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_compression

    Parallel compression, also known as New York compression, is a dynamic range compression technique used in sound recording and mixing. Parallel compression, a form of upward compression , is achieved by mixing an unprocessed 'dry', or lightly compressed signal with a heavily compressed version of the same signal.

  5. Dynamic range compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression

    Like compression, expansion comes in two types, downward and upward. Downward expansion makes the quiet sounds below the threshold even quieter. A noise gate can be thought of as an extreme form of downward expansion as the noise gate make the quiet sounds (for instance: noise) quieter or even silent, depending on the floor setting. [2]

  6. Gated reverb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gated_reverb

    Gated reverb on a snare drum, produced by a plugin. Gated reverb or gated ambience is an audio processing technique that combines strong reverb and a noise gate that cuts the tail of the reverb. The effect is typically applied to recordings of drums (or live sound reinforcement of drums in a PA system ) to make the hits sound powerful and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz_drumming

    Jazz drumming is the art of playing percussion (predominantly the drum kit, which includes a variety of drums and cymbals) in jazz styles ranging from 1910s-style Dixieland jazz to 1970s-era jazz fusion and 1980s-era Latin jazz. The techniques and instrumentation of this type of performance have evolved over several periods, influenced by jazz ...

  9. Sound reinforcement system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_reinforcement_system

    Artistic signal manipulation using a compressor is a subjective technique widely utilized by mix engineers to improve clarity or to creatively alter the signal in relation to the program material. An example of artistic compression is the typical heavy compression used on the various components of a modern rock drum kit.
