  2. Loudness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness

    The relationship between SPL and loudness of a single tone can be approximated by Stevens's power law in which SPL has an exponent of 0.67. [ a ] A more precise model known as the Inflected Exponential function , [ 3 ] indicates that loudness increases with a higher exponent at low and high levels and with a lower exponent at moderate levels.

  3. Sound pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_pressure

    While 1 atm (194 dB peak or 191 dB SPL) [11] [12] is the largest pressure variation an undistorted sound wave can have in Earth's atmosphere (i. e., if the thermodynamic properties of the air are disregarded; in reality, the sound waves become progressively non-linear starting over 150 dB), larger sound waves can be present in other atmospheres ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_control_symbols

    Media symbols can be found on an array of advertisements: from live music venues to streaming services. In 2012, Google rebranded its digital download store to Google Play, [8] using the Play symbol in its logo. The Play symbol also serves as a logo for YouTube since 2017. [9]

  5. List of musical symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...

  6. EBU R 128 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBU_R_128

    EBU R 128 is a recommendation for loudness normalisation and maximum level of audio signals. It is primarily followed during audio mixing of television and radio programmes and adopted by broadcasters to measure and control programme loudness. [1]

  7. Audio normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_normalization

    Before loudness normalization, one song in a playlist might be quieter than the rest, so the listener would have to turn a volume knob up to adjust the playback volume. [4] Depending on the dynamic range of the content and the target level, loudness normalization can result in peaks that exceed the recording medium's limits, causing clipping.

  8. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    As long as the symbol survives the transfer between components, and can be perfectly regenerated (e.g., by pulse shaping techniques) the data itself is perfectly maintained. The data is typically buffered in a memory, and is clocked out by a very precise crystal oscillator. The data usually does not degenerate as it passes through many stages ...

  9. Sound level meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_level_meter

    Instead, the time-averaged value is used. This is the time average sound level or as it is usually called the 'equivalent continuous sound level' has the formal symbol L AT as described in paragraph 3,9 "Definitions" of IEC 61672-1 where many correct formal symbols and their common abbreviations are given. These mainly follow the formal ISO ...
