This is a partial list of notable users of electronic drums.Electronic drums have sensors or sensor-equipped pads, which the drummer strikes with a stick (or with their hand) to trigger synthesized or sampled drum or percussion sounds that are stored in a memory in an electronic drum module or synthesizer.
Terahertz waves lie at the far end of the infrared band, just before the start of the microwave band. Terahertz radiation – also known as submillimeter radiation, terahertz waves, tremendously high frequency [1] (THF), T-rays, T-waves, T-light, T-lux or THz – consists of electromagnetic waves within the ITU-designated band of frequencies from 0.3 to 3 terahertz (THz), [2] although the ...
Sonic weapon. A long-range acoustic device ( LRAD) in use on the USS Blue Ridge. Sonic and ultrasonic weapons ( USW) are weapons of various types that use sound to injure or incapacitate an opponent. Some sonic weapons make a focused beam of sound or of ultrasound; others produce an area field of sound. As of 2023 military and police forces ...
Infrasound, sometimes referred to as low frequency sound, describes sound waves with a frequency below the lower limit of human audibility (generally 20 Hz, as defined by the ANSI/ASA S1.1-2013 standard). [1] Hearing becomes gradually less sensitive as frequency decreases, so for humans to perceive infrasound, the sound pressure must be ...
LCD Soundsystem performing in Madrid in 2005. James Murphy founded LCD Soundsystem in 2002 [1] in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. [2] The "LCD" part of the band's name stands for "Liquid Christmas Display", a play on "liquid-crystal display", and originated from the earliest iteration of the band during a live performance at a Brooklyn Christmas party where bassist Murphy and drummer ...
Geometrical acoustics is an approximate theory, valid in the limiting case of very small wavelengths, or very high frequencies. The principal task of geometrical acoustics is to determine the trajectories of sound rays. The rays have the simplest form in a homogeneous medium, where they are straight lines.
