  2. Noise-canceling microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-canceling_microphone

    The internal electronic circuitry of an active noise-canceling mic attempts to subtract noise signal from the primary microphone. The circuit may employ passive or active noise canceling techniques to filter out the noise, producing an output signal that has a lower noise floor and a higher signal-to-noise ratio.

  3. Active noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

    This is because an engine's cyclic nature makes analysis and noise cancellation easier to apply. Modern mobile phones use a multi-microphone design to cancel out ambient noise from the speech signal. Sound is captured from the microphone(s) furthest from the mouth (the noise signal(s)) and from the one closest to the mouth (the desired signal).

  4. Pop filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_filter

    A pop filter, pop shield or pop screen is a noise protection filter for microphones, typically used in a recording studio. It serves to reduce or eliminate popping sounds caused by the mechanical impact of fast-moving air on the microphone from plosives during recorded speech and singing. Pop filters can also keep saliva off the microphone ...

  5. Sound quality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_quality

    For example, CD audio uses 16 bits per sample, and therefore it will have quantization noise approximately 96 dB below the maximum possible sound pressure level (when summed over the full bandwidth) The amount of space required to store PCM depends on the number of bits per sample, the number of samples per second, and the number of channels.

  6. Noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_control

    Using a combination of sound absorption materials, arrays of microphones and speakers, and a digital processor, a restaurant operator can use a tablet computer to selectively control noise levels at different places in the restaurant: the microphone arrays pick up sound and send it to the digital processor, which controls the speakers to output ...

  7. Audio feedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_feedback

    Block diagram of the signal-flow for a common feedback loop. [1]: 118 Audio feedback (also known as acoustic feedback, simply as feedback) is a positive feedback situation that may occur when an acoustic path exists between an audio output (for example, a loudspeaker) and its audio input (for example, a microphone or guitar pickup).

  8. Adaptive feedback cancellation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_feedback_cancellation

    Adaptive feedback cancellation originated during the evolution of the hearing aid. The hearing aid became digital, and as such feedback cancellation was needed. In 1980 a directional microphone was introduced in the digital hearing aid, and adaptive feedback cancellation was created to block external noise that the microphone picked up. Today ...

  9. Noise-cancelling headphones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise-cancelling_headphones

    Simplified graphical depiction of active noise reduction. To cancel the lower-frequency portions of the noise, noise-cancelling headphones use active noise control.A microphone captures the targeted ambient sounds, and a small amplifier generates sound waves that are exactly out of phase with the undesired sounds.
