lowpass

Cuts high frequencies

Lowpass describes a filter that allows frequencies below a certain threshold to pass through while blocking higher frequencies.

In audio processing, a lowpass filter removes treble and hiss: Apply a lowpass to soften the harsh highs.

In electronics and signal processing, lowpass filtering smooths data by eliminating rapid fluctuations.

Often hyphenated as low-pass.
