The technique of digitally encoding music or sound and reusing it as part of a composition or recording. Example: Using recorded rain sounds as part of an environmental soundscape.

A detailed digital representation of the acoustics of a space captured via the sound that results from an ideal impulse. Example: Using the IR of a cathedral to recreate the reverb for studio-recorded choir music.

Creation of everyday sound effects that are added to films in post-production to enhance audio quality. Example: Footsteps, clothes rustling, and door creaks.

The process of generating sound using electronic hardware or software instruments. Example: Creating a monster's roar by blending and manipulating various synthesized sounds.

The persistence of sound after the sound is produced as it bounces off the walls and objects. Example: The echoey quality of a voice in a cathedral.

The distribution of a sound signal into a new stereo or multi-channel sound field. Example: A vehicle moving from left to right across the screen having its sound move from left speaker to right.

The process of varying a sound signal to produce a new sound with different characteristics. Example: Applying a vibrato effect to a voice to indicate tension.
