  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. 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 .

  4. 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.

  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 power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

    Audio power is the electrical power transferred from an audio amplifier to a loudspeaker, measured in watts.The electrical power delivered to the loudspeaker, together with its efficiency, determines the sound power generated (with the rest of the electrical power being converted to heat).

  8. dBFS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBFS

    The red lines indicate full scale, and the waveform is shown before and after hard clipping (grey and black outlines respectively). Decibels relative to full scale ( dBFS or dB FS ) is a unit of measurement for amplitude levels in digital systems, such as pulse-code modulation (PCM), which have a defined maximum peak level.

  9. RIAA equalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIAA_equalization

    RIAA equalization is a form of pre-emphasis on recording and de-emphasis on playback. A recording is made with the low frequencies reduced and the high frequencies boosted, and on playback, the opposite occurs.
