  2. Critical band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_band

    A Band-pass filter showing the centre frequency(Fc), the lower(F1) and upper(F2) cut off frequencies and the bandwidth. The upper and lower cut-off frequencies are defined as the point where the amplitude falls to 3 dB below the peak amplitude. The bandwidth is the distance between the upper and lower cut-off frequencies, and is the range of ...

  3. ReplayGain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReplayGain

    Typically, the replay gain and peak level values are then stored as metadata in the audio file. ReplayGain-capable audio players use the replay gain metadata to automatically attenuate or amplify the signal on a per-track or per-album basis such that tracks or albums play at a similar loudness level.

  4. Audio normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_normalization

    Peak normalization adjusts the recording based on the highest signal level present in the recording. Loudness normalization adjusts the recording based on perceived loudness . Normalization differs from dynamic range compression , which applies varying levels of gain over a recording to fit the level within a minimum and maximum range.

  5. P3b - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P3b

    The P3b is a positive-going amplitude (usually relative to a reference behind the ear or the average of two such references) peaking at around 300 ms, though the peak will vary in latency (delay between stimulus and response) from 250 to 500 ms or later depending upon the task [2] and on the individual subject response. [1]

  6. Formant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formant

    [1] [2] In acoustics, a formant is usually defined as a broad peak, or local maximum, in the spectrum. [3] [4] For harmonic sounds, with this definition, the formant frequency is sometimes taken as that of the harmonic that is most augmented by a resonance. The difference between these two definitions resides in whether "formants" characterise ...

  7. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    The commonly given measurement of PMPO (peak music power out) is largely meaningless and often used in marketing literature; in the late 1960s there was much controversy over this point and the US Government (FTA) required that RMS figures be quoted for all high fidelity equipment. Music power has been making a comeback in recent years.

  8. Peak programme meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_programme_meter

    A peak programme meter (PPM) is an instrument used in professional audio that indicates the level of an audio signal. Different kinds of PPM fall into broad categories: True peak programme meter. This shows the peak level of the waveform no matter how brief its duration. Quasi peak programme meter (QPPM). This only shows the true level of the ...

  9. Crest factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_factor

    The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is the peak amplitude squared (giving the peak power) divided by the RMS value squared (giving the average power). [1] It is the square of the crest factor. When expressed in decibels , crest factor and PAPR are equivalent, due to the way decibels are calculated for power ratios vs amplitude ratios .
