The Algorithm

Our exclusive algorithm doesn't exist in any hardware nor software plug-in. It features a dynamically controlled harmonic enhancer feeding a 32 bands de-expander. The last stage ...

Good Mastering Practices

The number of bits determines the description resolution for each sample. A 16-bit signal is described according to 65 536 (2 ^ 16) values. This allows a theoretical 96 dB signal-to-noise ratio.

Equal Loudness Contour

An equal-loudness contour is a measure of sound pressure (dB SPL), over the frequency spectrum, for which a listener perceives a constant loudness when presented with pure steady tones.

A complete model of a tube amplifier stage

In this note we are going to build a mathematical model of a tube amplifier stage; as an example, a common cathode triode amplifier will be examined, but the exposed method can be applied to every other tube amplifier.
