Concept
Sound effect
Résumé
A sound effect (or audio effect) is an artificially created or enhanced sound, or sound process used to emphasize artistic or other content of films, television shows, live performance, animation, video games, music, or other media.
In motion picture and television production, a sound effect is a sound recorded and presented to make a specific storytelling or creative point without the use of dialogue or music. Traditionally, in the twentieth century, they were created with Foley. The term often refers to a process applied to a recording, without necessarily referring to the recording itself. In professional motion picture and television production, dialogue, music, and sound effects recordings are treated as separate elements. Dialogue and music recordings are never referred to as sound effects, even though the processes applied to such as reverberation or flanging effects, often are called "sound effects".
This area and sound design have been slowly merged since the late-twentieth century.
The term sound effect dates back to the early days of radio. In its Year Book 1931 the BBC published a major article about "The Use of Sound Effects". It considers sound effects deeply linked with broadcasting and states: "It would be a great mistake to think of them as anologous to punctuation marks and accents in print. They should never be inserted into a programme already existing. The author of a broadcast play or broadcast construction ought to have used Sound Effects as bricks with which to build, treating them as of equal value with speech and music." It lists six "totally different primary genres of Sound Effect":
Realistic, confirmatory effect
Realistic, evocative effect
Symbolic, evocative effect
Conventionalised effect
Impressionistic effect
Music as an effect
According to the author, "It is axiomatic that every Sound Effect, to whatever category it belongs, must register in the listener's mind instantaneously. If it fails to do so its presence could not be justified.

Synthétiseur
Un synthétiseur (ou familièrement synthé, par apocope) est un instrument de musique électronique capable de créer et de moduler des sons sous forme de signal électrique. Il peut être utilisé pour imiter, avec plus ou moins de réalisme, des instruments de musique traditionnels, des bruits naturels ou encore pour créer des sonorités complètement originales. Les sonorités varient en fonction de la technique de synthèse sonore utilisée (tables d'ondes, échantillons, synthèse additive, synthèse soustractive, modulation de fréquence, modélisation physique, modulation de phase, synthèse granulaire).
Station audionumérique
vignette|Station audionumérique Une station audionumérique (acronyme DAW, de l'anglais Digital Audio Workstation) désigne une station de travail basée sur des composants optimisés pour le pilotage, l'acquisition et le traitement numérique du son. Les stations audionumériques sont conçues pour enregistrer, éditer, manipuler, créer et lire des contenus MIDI et audionumériques. Le concept a évolué avec l'importance prise par l'informatique distribuée au travers de protocoles standards de l'internet.
