🇬🇧		🇬🇧

Repeating, Decaying echo

Delay

Creates a copy, or several copies of a signal

Chorus

Closely spaced sound reflections

Reverb

The amount of time between the sound and the reverb

Pre- Delay

Space between the levels and the peaks

Headroom

How loud the signal has to be before compression is applied

Threshold

Difference between the quietest and loudest volume of the recording

Dynamic Range

Amplifies the level (dB)

Make up gain

Allows higher frequencies to pass through the filter

High pass filter

Attenuates frequency - specific noise like hum by writing a "notch" out of the frequency

Notch Filter

Eq that allows you to simultaneously boost and cut

Pultec EQ

Snapshot of the sound wave

Bit word

Repeating sound caused by reflection of the sound waves on a surface

Echo

How much compression is applied

Ratio

A delay introduced into an audio signal measured in degrees delayed

Phase Shift

A device that produces artificial reverberation by sending vibrations across a metal plate via a transducer similar to a speaker driver

Plate Verb

Scattering of sound waves

Diffusion

The audible frequency range in which humans can hear. 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz

Frequency Spectrum

Refers to the gradual introduction of compression of the signal once the sound level crosses the threshold

Soft Knee

The point where the sound begins and increases in volume to its peak

Attack Time

A type of compressor that sharply reduces the gain of the signal when the audio level reaches a certain threshold

Limiter

A device, circuit or plug-in that allows a narrow band of frequencies to pass through the circuit, rejecting or attenuating frequencies that are either higher or lower than the specified range.

Bandpass Filter

An equalizer in which all parameters of equalization can be adjusted to any amount, including the center frequency, the amount of boost or cut, and the bandwidth.

Parametric EQ

The scenario in which there is no increase or decrease in signal strength at the output of an amplifier or device compared to the signal strength at the input (typically described as 0 dB)

Unity Gain

The number of times per second that samples are taken

Sample Rate

Drop down menu that allows you to switch between takes and subtracks
