  2. Transformation (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_(music)

    Transformations include multiplication, rotation, permutation (i.e. transposition, inversion, and retrograde), prolation (augmentation, diminution) and combinations thereof. Transformations may also be applied to simpler or more complex variables such as interval and spectrum or timbre.

  3. Rotation (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_(music)

    Even if a live person is present, the automation system at commercial stations usually picks the music ahead of time out of the current rotation, thus the DJ becomes only an announcer. Heavy rotation or power rotation is a list of songs that get the most airplay on a radio station. Songs in heavy rotation will be played many times in a 24-hour ...

  4. Hard disk drive performance characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive...

    It depends on the rotational speed of a disk (or spindle motor), measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). [5] [23] For most magnetic media-based drives, the average rotational latency is typically based on the empirical relation that the average latency in milliseconds for such a drive is one-half the rotational period.

  5. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

    Hall effect devices produce a very low signal level and thus require amplification. The vacuum tube amplifier technology available in the first half of the 20th century was too large, expensive, and power-consuming for everyday Hall effect sensor applications, which were limited to laboratory instruments.

  6. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games. [1]

  7. Latency (audio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(audio)

    Latency refers to a short period of delay (usually measured in milliseconds) between when an audio signal enters a system, and when it emerges.Potential contributors to latency in an audio system include analog-to-digital conversion, buffering, digital signal processing, transmission time, digital-to-analog conversion, and the speed of sound in the transmission medium.

  8. Permutation (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation_(music)

    Cyclical permutation (also called rotation) [9] is the maintenance of the original order of the tone row with the only change being the initial pitch class, with the original order following after. A secondary set may be considered a cyclical permutation beginning on the sixth member of a hexachordally combinatorial row.

  9. Latency - Wikipedia

    Latency (engineering), a measure of the time delay experienced by a system Latency (audio), the delay between the moment an audio signal is triggered and the moment it is produced or received; Mechanical latency
