  2. Loudness war - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war

    With the advent of the compact disc (CD), music is encoded to a digital format with a clearly defined maximum peak amplitude. Once the maximum amplitude of a CD is reached, loudness can be increased still further through signal processing techniques such as dynamic range compression and equalization. Engineers can apply an increasingly high ...

  3. 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]

  4. Dynamic range compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range_compression

    Most television commercials are heavily compressed to achieve near-maximum perceived loudness while staying within permissible limits. This causes a problem that TV viewers often notice: when a station switches from minimally compressed program material to a heavily compressed commercial, the volume sometimes seems to increase dramatically.

    Spotify allows users to add local audio files for music not in its catalog into the user's library through Spotify's desktop application, and then allows users to synchronize those music files to Spotify's mobile apps or other computers over the same Wi-Fi network as the primary computer by creating a Spotify playlist, and adding those local ...

    The following table lists the progression for the record of most number of days for non-seasonal songs in the number 1 position on the Global Spotify Chart, showing the date the record was achieved and the length the record was held (in the case of the current record holder, Tones and I, has been held).

  8. Digital audio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_audio

    Popular streaming services such as Apple Music, Spotify, or YouTube, offer temporary access to the digital file, and are now the most common form of music consumption. [2] An analog audio system converts physical waveforms of sound into electrical representations of those waveforms by use of a transducer, such as a microphone.

  9. Loudness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness

    When sensorineural hearing loss (damage to the cochlea or in the brain) is present, the perception of loudness is altered. Sounds at low levels (often perceived by those without hearing loss as relatively quiet) are no longer audible to the hearing impaired, but sounds at high levels often are perceived as having the same loudness as they would for an unimpaired listener.
