audio frequencies

Hearable wave pitches

Audio frequencies are the range of sound vibrations detectable by human hearing, roughly 20 to 20,000 hertz.

The term appears in discussions of music production, speaker specifications, and hearing tests.

Low audio frequencies produce bass tones; high frequencies produce treble.

The engineer adjusted the audio frequencies to reduce muddiness in the mix.
