Introduction
Audio Processing means changing the characteristics of an audio signal in some way.
Processing can be used to enhance audio, fix problems, separate sources, create new
sounds, as well as to compress, store and transmit data. MATLAB can also be used to
create and manipulate audio signals. In this lab, audio signals are generated using the
sinusoid signals.
Task 1
Code
fs=8000; %Sampling frequency
Ts=1/fs; %Sampling time
t=0:0.001:5; %Time interval
note1=5*sin(2*pi*523.25*t); %Sinusoid Signal
audiowrite('note1.wav',note1,fs); %Writing audio file
soundsc(note1); %Playing audio file

Conclusions
In this lab, audio files are created using the sinusoids and by performing their
concatenation. Then the music files are played and observed for different sampling
frequencies and amplitudes. The noise is added to the music files by generating random
numbers array. Then it is removed using the bandpass, high and low pass filters.
