In the field of audio production for cinema, television, and other media, sound editing and sound mixing are two independent but closely connected procedures. Both are crucial in shaping the final audio experience, but they involve numerous tasks and occur at various stages of the post-production process. Read this article to find out more about Sound Editing and Sound Mixing and how they are different from each other. What is Sound Editing? Sound editing is an important part of post-production in film, television, video games, and other forms of media. It involves changing and organizing audio elements to create a ... Read More

In the world of communication, there are two types of data that we encounter frequently, noise, and signal. These two terms are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Noise refers to any unwanted or random interference that occurs in a signal, while a signal is the desired information being transmitted. In this essay, we will discuss the differences between noise and signal in detail. What is Noise? Noise is described as any unwanted sound that is judged as overly loud and disruptive to hear. From a physics point of view, noise is regarded as indistinguishable from the ... Read More

The both types of audio signals can be used for various purposes. Wet signals or sounds are much richer and have more depth to them. Dry signals or sounds are more shallow and lack the richness of wet signals or sounds. This is because wet signals or sounds have been soaked in reverb, which gives them a lusher sound. Dry signals or sounds have not been soaked in reverb, so they sound more like they are coming from a dry place. In general, effects can categorize into three groups, they are: frequency based, time based, and dynamics based. Reverb time ... Read More

Introduction The terms Doppler effect and Doppler shift are often used synonymously by most people. While for day-to-day usage, there is no problem in doing that, there are still some differences between them that one must be aware of. Doppler effect arises in waves of all forms and is not limited to sound waves or light waves. However, it is most tangible in the case of sound waves. The frequency shift observed in light waves is too small to be visible to the naked eye. Instead, spectroscopic measurements are required. Further, the Doppler effect theory is only valid when the ... Read More

Introduction Waves of all types suffer an interesting phenomenon as the speed of their source is varied. You have likely encountered this phenomenon in your own life. Recall what happens to the sound of a train’s horn as it passes by you at very high speed. This is an example of a Doppler shift in sound waves. A similar phenomenon is observed for light waves as well. The Doppler effect plays a massive role in the calculation of the distance of stars and planets from our Earth. The same phenomenon is used by the speed radars that traffic police officials ... Read More

Introduction Sound exists in the immediate surrounding and is produced through all the objects that are present in nature the sound requires a medium to travel through, be it solid, liquid or gases. It is generally known to travel at a speed of 300m/s. It is known to exist in the form of energy and it generates when an object vibrates. The sound however can be a piece of music to the ears or unwanted noise. A sound is classified further based on its associated properties like pitch, loudness, amplitude and the frequency of the wave of sound. The ... Read More

Introduction Vocal cord plays an essential role in the communication skill of human beings. The cord with the accommodation of noise, tongue, and mouth helps in creating sounds. The creation of sound is bliss for humans and they have gained the capacity of communicating with the gift of the vocal cord. It is called the source of the human voice and there are three main parts of voice production Vocal cord, source of Human Voice The skill of communication is the most important part of human life. The communication of humans has happened using the vocal cord. It ... Read More

Introduction The reflection of sound waves from multiple closed surfaces is associated with the function of reverberation. The reflection might occur from the air, furniture in the area or even in the presence of humans. This effect is quite similar to that of echo but the distance between the source and the obstacle through which the sound gets reflected is lesser compared to the case of echo. Once the sound waves get reflected from one surface to another the phenomenon starts decaying since the waves get absorbed by the surfaces of the objects. What is reverberation? The phenomenon of ...

Introduction Sound waves shows a variety of properties that are displayed by waves, however, specifically, it displays the notions of frequency, pitch, timbre and lastly loudness. Timbre out of all these showcases the distinctions of sounds that we perceive. In everyday life, the notion of timbre assists us to make a striking distinction between the several sounds of objects that we perceive. Not only do sounds come from various objects but also we are as well able to distinguish voices coming from different persons due to the timbre quality that is present within sound waves. Definition of timbre The term ... Read More
