In audio, the ratio of output level to the corresponding input level for a device. Level is typically represented in terms of power or voltage, but gain is unitless and is identical whether voltages or powers were used to calculate it. Because gain is a ratio, it is usually described using decibels. A gain of 0 dB indicates no change in level, while a gain of 10 dB is perceived as approximately a doubling in loudness—depending on the nature of the sound and on the initial loudness.
Industry:Software; Computer
Describes an encoded audio representation that, while allowing variations in bit rate from frame to frame, maintains a specific average bit rate over a long time interval (typically between 10 and 60 seconds). You can use ABR-savvy encoders to fit a recording into a predetermined file size. Compare constant bit rate, variable bit rate.
Industry:Software; Computer
Kernel programming interface. A group of opaque data types and accessor functions designed to maintain binary compatibility across OS releases.
