Noise (audio)

Hey kiddo! Let's talk about noise, you know the sounds that you hear when it's really quiet? Well, we call that noise, but when we talk about noise in audio, we mean any unwanted sounds that can affect how we hear music, voice recordings, or other types of sound.

Imagine you're trying to listen to your favorite song, but your little brother is constantly making loud noises in the same room, making it hard to concentrate on the music. That's the same thing that happens with audio noise. Sometimes, there may be sounds in the background that we don't want, like the hum of an air conditioner or the sound of a car passing by. And sometimes, there could be problems with the equipment that we use to record or play sounds, which can create extra noise in the recordings.

So, why is it important to reduce noise in audio recordings? Well, the reason is simple! It's because noise can make it harder to hear the sounds that we want to hear. It can make music sound distorted or muffled, and voices can be hard to understand. Thankfully, there are some techniques that can help reduce noise in audio recordings, such as using filters or adjusting the settings on our equipment.

Overall, noise in audio is just like any other unwanted sound that can make it harder for us to enjoy what we want to hear. But with a little care and attention, we can reduce noise and enjoy high-quality audio recordings.
