Etymology wise, the word analogue, has traces that go way back to the Greek word – logos (word, thought, principle or speech).
“Analogue”: a continuous electrical signal with an amplitude that varies with time.
Let that logos arms
embrace your analog circuits…
Here we have an example of an analog sound:

Acoustics is the fascinating science of sound and how it interacts with its environment. It’s like the artistry of the auditory world, where sound waves dance through spaces, bouncing off surfaces, and creating a symphony of echoes and reverberations.
In the world of acoustics, every room becomes a stage, and every surface a potential conductor. Whether you’re in a concert hall designed to amplify the magic of a symphony or a hushed library where even a whisper can carry, acoustics play a vital role in shaping our auditory experiences.
Architects, engineers, and acousticians work together to craft spaces that enhance sound quality, making sure that what we hear is as pleasing and intelligible as possible. It’s a delicate balance of science and art, where the shape of a room, the materials used, and even the arrangement of furniture can impact how sound travels and is perceived.
Next time you’re in a space that feels like music to your ears or marvel at the clarity of a speaker’s voice in a crowded room, remember that acoustics is the silent maestro behind the scenes, orchestrating the symphony of sound that surrounds us.
