  2. Quantization (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_(music)

    When one instructs the music application to quantize a certain group of MIDI notes in a song, the program moves each note to the closest point on the timing grid. Quantization in MIDI is usually applied to Note On messages and sometimes Note Off messages; some digital audio workstations shift the entire note by moving both messages together ...

  3. LA-2A Leveling Amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LA-2A_Leveling_Amplifier

    The LA-2A had evolved from Lawrence's first leveling amplifier, the LA-1, which was favored by Gene Autry, and its successor, the LA-2, which had been adopted by CBS and RCA. In 1965, Lawrence sold Teletronix to Babcock Electronics of Costa Mesa, California, and in 1967 Bill Putnam 's company Studio Electronics (eventually renamed UREI ...

  4. Amplifier figures of merit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier_figures_of_merit

    The gain of a good quality full-range audio amplifier will be essentially flat between 20 Hz to about 20 kHz (the range of normal human hearing). In ultra-high-fidelity amplifier design, the amplifier's frequency response should extend considerably beyond this (one or more octaves either side) and might have −3 dB points < 10 Hz and > 65 kHz.

  5. Audio bit depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_bit_depth

    24-bit and 32-bit audio does not require dithering, as the noise level of the digital converter is always louder than the required level of any dither that might be applied. 24-bit audio could theoretically encode 144 dB of dynamic range, and 32-bit audio can achieve 192 dB, but this is almost impossible to achieve in the real world, as even ...

  6. Quantization (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_(signal...

    The simplest way to quantize a signal is to choose the digital amplitude value closest to the original analog amplitude. This example shows the original analog signal (green), the quantized signal (black dots), the signal reconstructed from the quantized signal (yellow) and the difference between the original signal and the reconstructed signal ...

    McIntosh Laboratory is an American manufacturer of handcrafted high-end [1] [2] [3] audio equipment headquartered in Binghamton, New York. [4] [5] It is a subsidiary of McIntosh Group, which in November 2024 was acquired by Bose Corporation, a fellow American audio company..

  8. Bridged and paralleled amplifiers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridged_and_paralleled...

    A bridge-tied load (BTL), also known as bridged transformerless and bridged mono, is an output configuration for audio amplifiers, a form of impedance bridging used mainly in professional audio & car applications. [1] The two channels of a stereo amplifier are fed the same monaural audio signal, with one channel's electrical polarity reversed.

  9. Automatic gain control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_gain_control

    Schematic of an AGC used in the analog telephone network; the feedback from output level to gain is effected via a Vactrol resistive opto-isolator.. Automatic gain control (AGC) is a closed-loop feedback regulating circuit in an amplifier or chain of amplifiers, the purpose of which is to maintain a suitable signal amplitude at its output, despite variation of the signal amplitude at the input.
