The paper reviews some applications of temporal envelope of audio signal from the perspective of a sound engineer. It contrasts the parametric representation of the temporal envelope (e.g., temporal centroid, attack time, attack slope) with the more global representation based on envelope shape descriptors. Such an approach would mimic the sound engineer expertise and could be useful for such classification tasks, as music genre, speech/music, musical instruments classification, and others.
