Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method for enhancing audio quality of audio signals in venues hosting sound programs, the method comprising:
reducing, by a computer system, amplitudes of one or more segments of an audio signal to generate a first audio signal, the amplitudes of the one or more segments determined to be below a first threshold;
applying, by the computer system, multi-band compression to the first audio signal to generate a second audio signal, applying the multi-band compression includes reducing dynamic ranges of the first audio signal within multiple frequency bands;
reducing, by the computer system, a dynamic range of the second audio signal to generate a third audio signal;
generating, by the computer system, an output audio signal using a sum of the second audio signal and the third audio signal; and
transmitting, by the computer system, the output signal over one or more communication channels to a plurality of receivers, each receiver communicatively coupled to a corresponding output component.
