Whats the effect of CD burning on digital error rates? |
CD burning rates must be low (4× or 2×) because the faster you burn the CD the more error that might happen. |
|
|
Standard sampling rate |
44.1 KHZ |
|
|
Sampling |
1 of the 4 basic stages of converting analog into digital data. 2nd stage after filtering. When the filtered analog signal is divided many times a sec, each sample of the filtered analog signal represents the amplitude of the audio signal at the moment the sample is taken. |

|
Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) |
Stand-alone, hard-disk based system that incorporates proprietary computer tech. But is quite similar to desktop audio systems. Computer hosted audio production takes place on the DAW. |
|
|
Sound files |
What audio can be edited, processed, or stored on a hard disk as. Consists of an information header & the actual data. Shown on a computer as the waveform of the audio. |
|
|
Wav format |
Most popular; gives high quality but uses more hard drive space. |
|
|
MIDI |
Interface system that allows electronic equipment, mainly musical instruments, to talk to eachother through an electronic language. |
|
|
SMPTE |
Electronic language developed for videotape editing that identifies each video frame w/ an individual address. Time code #'s consist of hour, min, sec, & frame. |
|
|
MIDI & SMPTE |
Both MIDI and SMPTE signals can be used to reference various individual pieces of equipment & accurately start, combine, stop or synchronize them. |
|
|
Digital equipment |
Offers superior audio quality & doesn't suffer from various forms of audio distortion or build up any additional noise during recording or copying. Potential noise problem |
|
|
Operational advantage of the DAW & disadvantage |
Fast random access to all the material stored in the system but when something goes wrong with a computer hard drive its often everything on the drive that's damaged or lost. Need automatic backing up of files. |
|
|
Destructive vs. Nondestructive editing |
destructive editing alters the original image, and you cannot remove or alter the edits later. Nondestructive editing does not alter the original image data or degrade the image. |
