This column is devoted to the basics of audio compression, a powerful signal-processing technique that is poorly understood by almost all of us. Once again, I hope you find it useful, or that you can ...

This mini audio compressor circuit use only one active component T1. The audio signal goes thru C1, R1, D1, C2, R3. Still a part of audio signal charge the D3/D4 detector and creates a control voltage ...

In a previous article, we discussed analog audio SNR concepts. As mentioned, the dynamic range is restricted at the top by clipping (THD ≤1 percent) and at the bottom by the thermal noise combined ...

[In our Three-Minute Tech series, we tell you everything you really need to know about a technology in three minutes or less.] The day may come when increased storage capacities and unfettered ...

Lossless data compression of digital audio signals is useful when it is necessary to minimize the storage space or transmission bandwidth of audio data while still maintaining archival quality.

I thought it might be nice to take some time to consider the primary tool we use to cope with audio levels. That would be, of course, the audio compressor. This is a fascinating device. We use it a ...

Data Compression is one of the most important components of this world, driven by petabytes of data daily. We, as humans, are generating data every second. From walking to running, eating to drinking, ...

Just about all the newest living room audio-video electronics and PC multimedia products being designed today will incorporate some form of compressed digitized-audio processing capability. Three ...

As a special Valentine's gift, Universal Audio is giving away a free version of its classic 1176 peak limiter/compressor plugin. We have all the details here on how to get it and use it in your mixes!

Belfast–based audio compression specialist Audio Processing Technology (APT) has identified an opportunity to expand its intellectual property (IP) licensing business following a management buyout.
