Signal Processing Devices and Applications

Chapter

Abstract

Signal processing is a term that applies to all devices used to modify signals during recording and transfer operations. Such processors as compressors, equalizers, and reverberation devices are intended to modify the sound of a recording, often to a profound degree. Other processors, such as HF limiters, noise reduction systems, and distortion correction devices, are intended to improve the quality of the transmission channel itself and not to alter basic musical values.
