Convention Paper

A Consumer Adjustable Dynamic Range Control System

Authors: McMillen, Keith A.

AES Convention 113 · Paper 5655 · October 2002

Abstract

Advances in technology have afforded listeners an available dynamic range in excess of 120dB. While impressive in proper concert halls and listening rooms, large dynamic ranges are not always realistic for all environments and musical styles. This paper describes a practical multi-band dynamics processor software object that can reside in low cost consumer products and allow the user to adjust dynamic range to fit his or her taste and listening environment.
