Sound field

Multimedia is a big domain but basically all comes down to sound and video/photo. Many people focus more on the video/photo media but why ignore or show less interest in sound. Sound is a very interesting thing. I mean sure maybe you will find the complexity of an eye more interesting than that of an ear, but is this enough reason to neglect such an interesting and fascinating domain?

For example did you know that the whole mathematical notions of exponential and logarithms was invented because of how a human being hears? Yes, well it is a proven fact that we can hear weakest sounds and also some high tones in a certain dB range. The way we manage to hear such a wide range of sounds is because our hearing is logarithmic based. More on wikipedia

Sure we can go more indepth with the whole notion and talk only about Speech hearing but I have planed something else for you.

Sound applications in multimedia

First of all we need to get some audio so that we have something to work with. As far as I know there are lots of computer software that can record voice or just about anything else.

The tools I use:

So once the sound is gathered you now have something to work with. In multimedia to the current day unless you are a pro you can't do much with sound. But I know some tools that can do the following:

- change your voice
- remove voice from a music track
- text to speech software
- speech to text software

Not so many applications.. If you wonder why, well don't. It's all because of the trend in multimedia. Video seems more important than sound. Why? Because we make it be this way.
Before you accept that too don't forget what sound can do: entertain, amaze, scare you.
