The method or process of determining the resulting immission level is called noise calculation, its graphical representation is called noise map. Noise calculation is done for the following reasons: to calculate a current situation based on existing physics, mostly when a physical measurement at a location is impractical
In sample recording, digital clicks occur when the signal levels of two adjacent audio sections do not match. The abrupt change in gain can be perceived as a click. [5] In electronic music, clicks are used as a musical element, particularly in glitch and noise music, for example in the Clicks & Cuts Series (2000–2010). [6] [7]
The commonly used reference sound exposure in air is [2] E 0 = 400 μ P a 2 ⋅ s . {\displaystyle E_{0}=400~\mathrm {\mu Pa^{2}\cdot s} .} The proper notations for sound exposure level using this reference are L W /(400 μPa 2 ⋅s) or L W (re 400 μPa 2 ⋅s) , but the notations dB SEL , dB(SEL) , dBSEL, or dB SEL are very common, even if ...

The ratio of (a) total received power, i.e., the signal to (b) the noise-plus-distortion power. This is modeled by the equation above. [2] The ratio of (a) the power of a test signal, i.e. a sine wave, to (b) the residual received power, i.e. noise-plus-distortion power. With this definition, it is possible to have a SINAD level less than one.
Though the noise level of 16-bit audio systems (such as CD players) is commonly quoted (on the basis of calculations that take no account of subjective effect) as −96 dB relative to FS (full scale), the best 468-weighted results are in the region of −68 dB relative to Alignment Level (commonly defined as 18 dB below FS) i.e. −86 dB ...
Microphones, amplifiers and recording systems all add some electronic noise to the signals passing through them, generally described as hum, buzz or hiss. All buildings have low-level magnetic and electrostatic fields in and around them emanating from mains supply wiring, and these can induce hum into signal paths, typically 50 Hz or 60 Hz (depending on the country's electrical supply standard ...
The equivalent rectangular bandwidth or ERB is a measure used in psychoacoustics, which gives an approximation to the bandwidths of the filters in human hearing, using the unrealistic but convenient simplification of modeling the filters as rectangular band-pass filters, or band-stop filters, like in tailor-made notched music training (TMNMT).
