Re: Audio RMS versus Peak

Thanks all, for your inputs, I had typed many answers but lost all cuz a timeout.😣 To make it short, I think of using MDAC like DAC8811 at the VCA stage ( unbalanced ) Balanced XLR output using OPA454 with high voltage rails. Stay with usual voltage rails at the XLR input stage and VCA stage. The re...

Re: Audio RMS versus Peak

In line level gear what is considered signal peak value of a given signal rms value ? The answer for a Sine signal is Vpeak /Vrms = √2; What about audio signals rms values ? In line level gear, when considering headroom and clipping, what is the ratio used by pro designers? There is only a simple r...

Re: Audio RMS versus Peak

I see, in this matter audio rms refers to sine signals. I wanted to make sure. Another related issue ( or same ?). RMS-equivalent (or average measurement calibrated to RMS) using a sine wave . When measuring AC, multimeters display a RMS value. They actually measure the mean value of the rectified s...

Re: "Deboosting" Google or Are We Banned? I'll Call Either A Win.

It is clear politicians and advertisers have used internet right away to influence people.
That has reached a stratospheric level, with bots fighing against bots to bias search engines.
Now days, you rarely get the information you are looking for, to specific requests.

Re: Dielectric Absorption

A lumped model.
Does this model explain the clicking issue about microphone preamps phantom power isolation capacitors ?
Can on measure the characteristics of this capacitor and resistor array ?

Re: Dielectric Absorption

Can we model DA as a voltage source of a high impedance parallel to a perfect capacitor ? For instance 1 volt througt 1 MegOhm. This would be consistent with the voltage that keeps coming back after shorts. With this model, could that explain the clicking issue about microphone preamps phantom power...
