Audiokäsittely

Audiokäsittely, also known as audio processing, refers to the manipulation and modification of sound signals. This can involve a wide range of techniques, from basic volume adjustments to complex spectral shaping. The primary goal of audiokäsittely is to enhance, clarify, or alter audio content for various purposes, such as music production, broadcasting, voice communication, and sound design.

Common audiokäsittely techniques include equalization (EQ), which adjusts the balance of different frequencies within a sound, and compression, which reduces the dynamic range by making loud parts quieter and quiet parts louder. Reverberation and delay effects simulate acoustic spaces or create rhythmic echoes, respectively. Noise reduction is used to remove unwanted background sounds like hum or hiss.

Audiokäsittely can be performed using hardware devices or, more commonly today, through software applications known as Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs) or audio editors. These tools offer a vast array of plugins and algorithms to achieve virtually any desired sonic outcome. The application of audiokäsittely is fundamental to creating professional-sounding audio across many industries.
