What does Multitrack Recording also us to do?
|
They allow us to alter tones, adjusts levels, determine stereo or surround placement, and add processing as desired to each individual sound, which in turn allows the engineer to create a veru complex and sophiscated final mix.
|
|
|
What is the main difference between digital and analog recording?
|
The difference is in the nature of the information stored on the recording.
|
|
|
What is a signal?
|
They orginally are changes in air pressure that then become equivilant changes in voltage.
|
|
|
What happens when we choose to store our signal with an analog recording system?
|
A series of magentic patterns are stored on the tape that directly correspond to the audio signal.
|
|
|
How are our positive and negative voltages that represent compression and rarefraction stored?
|
Postive and Negative magnetic charges.
|
|
|
What is analog recording?
|
The tape is analogous to the compression and rarefraction in the atmosphere and the positive and negative voltages in our signal.
|
|
|
What does digital recording take a step further?
|
They convert the signals into a series of binary numbers.
|
|
|
How does the digital recording convert signals into a series of binary numbers?
|
Through analog to digital conversion.
|
|
|
After the A to D converter translate our fluctuating signal and assigns them numeric values, where are the numeric values then stored?
|
They are stored on the media.
|
|
|
What is digital recording?
|
It's when our audio signal has been converted to and stored as number or digits.
