    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound

    Sound waves may be viewed using parabolic mirrors and objects that produce sound. [ 9 ] The energy carried by an oscillating sound wave converts back and forth between the potential energy of the extra compression (in case of longitudinal waves) or lateral displacement strain (in case of transverse waves) of the matter, and the kinetic energy ...

    Sound mixer at work. A production sound mixer, location sound recordist, location sound engineer, or simply sound mixer is the member of a film crew or television crew responsible for recording all sound recording on set during the filmmaking or television production using professional audio equipment, for later inclusion in the finished product, or for reference to be used by the sound ...

  4. Acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    There are many kinds of transduction process that convert energy from some other form into sonic energy, producing a sound wave. There is one fundamental equation that describes sound wave propagation, the acoustic wave equation, but the phenomena that emerge from it are varied and often complex. The wave carries energy throughout the ...

    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 .

  6. Sound reinforcement system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_reinforcement_system

    A typical sound reinforcement system consists of; input transducers (e.g., microphones), which convert sound energy such as a person singing into an electric signal, signal processors which alter the signal characteristics (e.g., equalizers that adjust the bass and treble, compressors that reduce signal peaks, etc.), amplifiers, which produce a ...

  8. Airstream mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airstream_mechanism

    To produce a lingual ingressive airstream, first close the vocal tract at two places: at the back of the tongue, as in a velar or uvular stop, and simultaneously with the front of the tongue or the lips, as in a coronal or bilabial stop. These holds may be voiceless, voiced, or nasalized. Then lower the body of the tongue to rarefy the air ...

  9. Vocal cords - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vocal_cords

    In essence, sound is generated in the larynx by chopping up a steady flow of air into little puffs of sound waves. [29] The perceived pitch of a person's voice is determined by a number of different factors, most importantly the fundamental frequency of the sound generated by the larynx. The fundamental frequency is influenced by the length ...
