  2. Dynamic range compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression

    The quiet sounds below the threshold remain unaffected. This is the most common type of compressor. A limiter can be thought of as an extreme form of downward compression as it compresses the sounds over the threshold especially hard. Upward compression increases the volume of quiet sounds below a certain threshold.

  3. Noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_control

    Industrial noise control is a subset of interior architectural control of noise, with emphasis on specific methods of sound isolation from industrial machinery and for protection of workers at their task stations. Sound masking is the active addition of noise to reduce the annoyance of certain sounds, the opposite of soundproofing.

  4. Quiet PC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiet_PC

    A fanless CPU cooler based on heat pipe technology. A quiet, silent or fanless PC is a personal computer that makes very little or no noise.Common uses for quiet PCs include video editing, sound mixing and home theater PCs, but noise reduction techniques can also be used to greatly reduce the noise from servers.

    Windows 11 SE was announced on November 9, 2021, as an edition exclusively for low-end devices sold in the education market; it is intended as a successor to Windows 10 S, and also competes primarily with ChromeOS. It is designed to be managed via Microsoft Intune. Based on feedback from educators, Windows 11 SE has multiple UI differences and ...

  6. Noise gate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_gate

    An Alesis Micro Gate noise gate. A noise gate or simply gate is an electronic device or software that is used to control the volume of an audio signal.Comparable to a limiter, which attenuates signals above a threshold, such as loud attacks from the start of musical notes, noise gates attenuate signals that register below the threshold.

  7. Active noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

    Active noise control (ANC), also known as noise cancellation (NC), or active noise reduction (ANR), is a method for reducing unwanted sound by the addition of a second sound specifically designed to cancel the first.

  8. Microphone - Wikipedia

    The lower the number the better. Some microphone manufacturers state the noise level using ITU-R 468 noise weighting, which more accurately represents the way we hear noise, but gives a figure some 11–14 dB higher. A quiet microphone typically measures 20 dBA SPL or 32 dB SPL 468-weighted.

    Also In Windows Vista and 7 the "Power Saver" power profile allows much lower power state (frequency and voltage) than in the "High Performance" power state. Unlike Windows XP, Windows Vista only supports Cool'n'Quiet on motherboards that support ACPI 2.0 or later.
