  3. Noise reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction

    Smoothing filters tend to blur an image because pixel intensity values that are significantly higher or lower than the surrounding neighborhood smear across the area. Because of this blurring, linear filters are seldom used in practice for noise reduction; [ citation needed ] they are, however, often used as the basis for nonlinear noise ...

  4. Dynamic range compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression

    Threshold is commonly set in decibels (dBFS for digital compressors and dBu for hardware compressors), [8] where a lower threshold (e.g. −60 dB) means a larger portion of the signal is treated. When the signal level is below the threshold, no processing is performed and the input signal is passed, unmodified, to the output.

  5. Audio file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_file_format

    Audio file icons of various formats. An audio file format is a file format for storing digital audio data on a computer system. The bit layout of the audio data (excluding metadata) is called the audio coding format and can be uncompressed, or compressed to reduce the file size, often using lossy compression.

  7. Variable bitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_bitrate

    Variable bitrate (VBR) is a term used in telecommunications and computing that relates to the bitrate used in sound or video encoding. As opposed to constant bitrate (CBR), VBR files vary the amount of output data per time segment. VBR allows a higher bitrate (and therefore more storage space) to be allocated to the more complex segments of ...

  9. Loudness war - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war

    One example was the hot master of Led Zeppelin II by mastering engineer Bob Ludwig which caused some cartridges to mistrack; the album was recalled and issued with lower compression levels. [6] Digital media such as CDs remove these restrictions and as a result, increasing loudness levels have been a more severe issue in the CD era. [ 7 ]
