2. Equalization (audio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equalization_(audio)

   Equalization, or simply EQ, in sound recording and reproduction is the process of adjusting the volume of different frequency bands within an audio signal. The circuit or equipment used to achieve this is called an equalizer. [1] [2] Most hi-fi equipment uses relatively simple filters to make bass and treble adjustments. Graphic and parametric ...

3. RIAA equalization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIAA_equalization

   Some niche record cutters possibly were still using EQ curves other than the RIAA curve well into the 1970s. As a result, some audio manufacturers today produce phono equalizers with selectable EQ curves, including options for Columbia LP, Decca, CCIR, and TELDEC's Direct Metal Mastering.

4. De-essing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De-essing

   The ess in the spoken word "instantly" highlighted in the waveform display of a digital audio workstation. Audio editing software, whether professional or amateur software such as Audacity, can use the built-in equalization effects to reduce or eliminate sibilance ess sounds that interfere with a recording. Described here is a common method ...

5. Audio mixing (recorded music) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_mixing_(recorded_music)

   In sound recording and reproduction, audio mixing is the process of optimizing and combining multitrack recordings into a final mono, stereo or surround sound product. In the process of combining the separate tracks, their relative levels are adjusted and balanced and various processes such as equalization and compression are commonly applied ...

6. Emphasis (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emphasis_(telecommunications)

   In telecommunications, de-emphasis is the complement of pre-emphasis, in the antinoise system called emphasis. De-emphasis is a system process designed to decrease, (within a band of frequencies), the magnitude of some (usually higher) frequencies with respect to the magnitude of other (usually lower) frequencies in order to improve the overall signal-to-noise ratio by minimizing the adverse ...

7. Exciter (effect) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exciter_(effect)

   Dynamic equalization involves variation of the equalizer characteristics in the time domain as a function of the input. Due to the varying nature, noise is reduced compared to static equalizers. Harmonic synthesis involves the creation of higher order harmonics from the fundamental frequency signals present in the recording. As noise is usually ...

8. Live sound mixing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_sound_mixing

   A monitor engineer and console at an outdoor event. Live sound mixing is the blending of multiple sound sources by an audio engineer using a mixing console or software. Sounds that are mixed include those from instruments and voices which are picked up by microphones (for drum kit, lead vocals and acoustic instruments like piano or saxophone and pickups for instruments such as electric bass ...

9. Comparison of analog and digital recording - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_analog_and...

   After initial recording, it is common for the audio signal to be altered in some way, such as with the use of compression, equalization, delays and reverb. With analog, this comes in the form of outboard hardware components , and with digital, the same is typically accomplished with plug-ins in a digital audio workstation (DAW).
