The term "insertion loss" refers specifically to the drop in signal level that occurs when a device is inserted, or patched, into a signal path. This is not a defect or failure, but rather a natural consequence of how signals interact with the impedance charateristics of the devices involved. For system designers and engineers, understanding insertion loss is vital for maintaining optimal signal flow and ensuring that level-dependent processors behave consistently. It is also a key consideration when calibrating levels in complex signal chains or troubleshooting unexpected changes in sound quality.

To minimize the negative effects of impedance mismatch and insertion loss, consider the following best practices..

Broadway is widely known for its dazzling performances, world-class talent, and multimillion-dollar productions. But behind every great musical is an orchestra of highly skilled musicians whose contributions are essential to bringing the show to life. While actors and directors may be in the spotlight, pit musicians work just as tirelessly, and their compensation is structured by detailed union agreements. Here's a look at how orchestral wage scales work on Broadway..

One of the key characteristics of all good mixes is the ability to hear all the individual elements in the mix. There is real skill involved in achieving this. Perhaps the most important tool used to attain this goal (once the recording has been done) is the equalizer.

As valuable as the equalizer is, this tool will not work for you by simply plugging it in. The key to effective EQ work lies in the mixer's ability to listen critically and adjust the EQ's parameters (frequency, gain, and Q (bandwidth)) with purpose and intent. Rather than randomly boosting frequencies to make something louder, experience mixers often employ a technique called "subtractive EQ", where they cut problematic frequencies first before applying any boosts. This creates more space in the mix and helps prevent frequency masking, where one sound hides or competes with another in the same range..

Consider the following scenario:
"Somewhere in the middle of a recording session, the building's heating boiler kicked in. Not only did it heat the studio (a good thing), it also introduced a low level, very low frequency signal into the tracks from that time on (a bad thing). How would you go about removing the offensive, non-musical signal using equalization?"

Boilers system can emit vibrations in the 20 - 80 Hz range, which can be picked up by sensitive mics or transmitted through stands and floors. This type of rumble can muffle bass instruments and kick drums, add unwanted low-end buildup, or eat up mix headroom. The following steps can help eliminate the rumble...

Majetone, a London-based developer known for unique and creative sound design and plug-ins, has recently announced the release of 'Dream Kit: Zenith' — A groundbreaking virtual instrument that reimagines the drum kit as a fully chromatic, synth-style sound source. Designed and built by drummer, producer, and engineer James Yates, Dream Kit: Zenith blends meticulous multi-sampling with analog synth sensibilities to create a uniquely tactile and expressive instrument. Unlike conventional drum plug-ins, Dream Kit: Zenith dives deep into the full anatomy of the drum kit — not just the drums themselves, but every part: lugs, shells, hoops, pedals, snares, cymbals, buzz rolls, thumb rolls, cymbal scrapes, and more. Each element is sampled, tuned, and stretched across five octaves, transforming a traditionally percussive instrument into a richly playable sonic palette.
