Tone control is a type of equalization used to make specific pitches or frequencies in an audio signal softer or louder. It allows a listener to adjust the tone of the sound produced by an audio system to their liking, for example to compensate for inadequate bass response of loudspeakers or earphones, tonal qualities of the room, or hearing impairment.
Stereo 31-band 1/3-octave graphic equalizer for use in sound reinforcement applications. In the graphic equalizer, the input signal is sent to a bank of filters. Each filter passes the portion of the signal present in its own frequency range or band. The amplitude passed by each filter is adjusted using a slide control to boost or cut frequency ...
An idealized and extreme smiley face curve shown using a 29-band graphic equalizer. A smiley face curve or mid scoop [1] in audio signal processing is a target frequency response curve characterized by boosted low and high frequencies coupled with reduced midrange frequency power.
For example, in Europe, for many years recordings required playback with a bass turnover setting of 250 to 300 Hz and a treble rolloff at 10,000 Hz ranging from 0 to −5 dB, or more. In the United States, practices varied and a tendency arose to use higher bass turnover frequencies, such as 500 Hz, as well as a greater treble rolloff such as ...
A typical configuration of a bass-managed 5.1-channel surround-sound loudspeaker system is shown in the first diagram. [5] [6] As shown in the bass management block diagram, a 5.1-channel audio system consists of five discrete, full-range main channels (front left, center, front right, surround left, and surround right), plus a band-limited low ...
Usually, the aim is to achieve an overall system performance with a flat amplitude response and constant delay over a prescribed frequency range, [1]: 128 [2]: 679 by the addition of an equalizer. In the past, designers have used a variety of techniques to realize their equalizer circuits.
The bridge mode option is often used in PA systems and especially in car audio applications to feed bass loudspeakers at high power. Car audio amplifiers commonly have only a notional 13.8 volt supply, which would ordinarily limit the voltage swing available at the output to + and − 6.9 volts.
Bass (/ b eɪ s / BAYSS) (also called bottom end) [2] describes tones of low (also called "deep") frequency, pitch and range from 16 to 250 Hz (C 0 to middle C 4) [3] and bass instruments that produce tones in the low-pitched range C 2-C 4. They belong to different families of instruments and can cover a wide range of musical roles. Since ...
