Amplitude
▪
Amplitude is a property of a signal which determines its magni-
tude or change over time – in laymen‘s terms: The amplitude of
an audio signal is its loudness.
Bitcrushing
▪
Bitcrushing is a form of digital distortion effect achieved through
reducing the number of bits used to describe an analog signal.
The fewer bits, the less information and therefor more effect. The
resulting tonal effects can vary tremendously depending on the
sound sources used.
Cutoff Frequency
▪
The Cutoff frequency of a filter describes the frequency at which
the system starts to attenuate the signal. For example, if you
have the CF of a Highpasss Filter set to 1kHz, it will attenuate all
signals below 1kHz, while there will be no difference to the signal
for frequencies above 1kHz.
CV Signal
▪
A CV or control voltage signal is a signal used for controlling an-
alogue synthesizers. Even though there are signals specifically
designed to be used as control voltages, any form of a varying-
voltage adheres as a CV source, given it lies inside the operation-
al conditions of the target system. See also: Gate, Trigger.
DSP
▪
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processing, a form of algorithmic
processing of signals in the digital domain.
